Re: MacGowan's patchable grappling suggestions

I'd also like to point out what seems to be a little known fact:

If you deny a takedown attempt with L2+R2, you will go into double-unders. Totally a thing already, and most people don't know it (I myself totally forgot until a couple weeks ago!)

That animation could certainly be made into more of a late denial scenario, but just wanted people to know it actually is there

Awesome write-up, and very concise feedback!

There have been a lot of features like this that fly under the radar because it takes a lot of effort to learn how to play this game. Unless you have a friend to lab with I feel like its tough to learn the clinch and ground game.

The signals on which way to deny transitions was a great addition, but it would be even better if practice mode had:

grapple recording feature
reset to a specified position feature
set opponents and players stamina feature
set starting GA feature
restart practice feature

The more tools we have to learn the game the better.

the more you play the ground game an learn the denial directions the better you will become in it.

I totally agree. A better practice mode will help players with their ground game regardless of their skill level. It's not just for 'git good' but for learning about the ground game in general. Like that there is a double unders clinch option.
