Worst Exploits Right Now

[Serengeti1]

The head kick on the caught body kick.

Stationary head movement.

Unblockable double legs.

Faking a takedown to get out of the clinch.

Walking someone down while holding high block is too easy.

Rocking somebody, takedown to side control, and landing 1 unblockable elbow for the KO.

Spamming submissions and cancelling them on the first gate to score points and get the decision.


These exploits are the worst at the highest level. AKA the most effective. I just fought a guy doing all of the top three and it was hell. I came out with the decision win but I had to be so cautious to get it. He'd sit on the outside with Romero with stationary head movement and if I was too tentative he'd shoot in for the literally unblockable double leg.

These are the essential things needing to be changed right now other than glitches imo. If anyone has any more I'll add them to the OP.

Don't forget ducking uppercuts.

Re: Worst Exploits Right Now

It’s hilarious how people will gripe about some of these but use other exploits. Be careful of people that have an ulterior motive of making their play style the best by selectively advocating the removal of “real” exploits.

That said, the rocked double to side control elbow is right up there.

Couldn’t of said it better. I agree totally there’s a ton I see in these threads

Re: Worst Exploits Right Now

Why do you use leg kicks from the outside, or feint them to bait Romero into shooting and catch him with an uppercut? If you're getting taken down from space with no set up its kinda your fault. Dont mean to sound like an expert but do you have footage

Re: Worst Exploits Right Now

The thing with the double leg is bizarre, it's like the further they are away from you the better the takedown is? Multiply this with the fact no stamina is lost for being denied a takedown and its genuinely too fast to even uppercut pre-emptively and you're in for the most boring game of your life.

Re: Worst Exploits Right Now

Posted this in another thread but applies here too-

is the knee stomp punishable? You can't check it or catch it.

I had Glover vs a Jones user and he probably threw about 200 of these. I blocked a ton and tried to counter but Glover is too slow and Jones could usually get an uppercut to keep me away before I could get inside and land.

head strikes you can slip and punish, body kicks you can catch, body punches you can counter, round leg kicks you can check - what's the answer to these?

I'm top 50 in the world. So I'm kinda like a big deal.

Srsly tho I know how to play. The double leg is impossible to stop at the right distance. Like you actually can't deny it.

I use jab followed by either a upper, left hook, or right hook when somebody is doing the stationary head movement exploit. Depending on which way they generally move their head. Leg kicks occasionally but they're risky and can get countered.

I have footage but it's a 5 round fight (15 minutes) and my upload speed is trash. Might try trimming the right part of the video in a bit and uploading a small segment

Yes i've noticed this too, haven't played around with it much because I don't enjoy the wrestling, but it seems like there is a certain distance where when you shoot with a good wrestler, it's like a fast forward warp across the cage right into your hips for the auto TD. Doesn't seem right.

Re: Worst Exploits Right Now

I think the body knee is kind of an exploit I’ve seen people use they’ll just come so close holding block and fire off body knees because all you have to do is hold block and x or circle I think they should just change the button combination for the knees

If its impossible to deny at a certain distance is it possible to guillotine counter?
Experiment staying at jab range then use retreating leg kicks to avoid the counter, haven't tried this myself but it sounds like a decent strategy

I mean you can beat a player who is using all of these exploits with the right strategy and skill. But they're still exploits ya know?

They are very short range though, and a good counter to an opponent who won't give you any space. I use them a fair amount when my opponent is just in my face spamming duck duck duck slip slip slip waiting for me to throw a punch they can counter, and pretty often I will take some head damage while I throw it so it's punishable due to the range

Yea I understand it's annoying and tough to deal with but if a counter is established to these exploits they'll show up less frequently because people who are using them are losing. Best to experiment and inform everyone on how to beat cheesy tactics

A valid point sir. We also need to be careful of people advocating the removal of "real" exploits with the ulterior motive of protecting deficiencies in their skill level.
