What's the deal with takedowns after health events?

[Dave_S]

Sometimes it seems like forever until i can do one, like the first few attempts don't register.

Is there like a set period of time that you can't attempt TD?

You have to know the timing. Plus they should be damn near automatic., but they are not.

I don’t think as a whole takedowns need a buff, but there are situations where there should me more grapple advantage. Missed big strikes, lean back, missed combos or long combos etc

Any insight on the timing?

Leg health events is a big one for me. There is no denying that Takedown.

Wow, never even thought to take someone down after that. IRL and in game that would be a bad strategy. They are always in total defense mode leaving the head or leg open for another big shots (leading into another health event...which could be followed by a big shot to head or leg.

The last thing I am thinking of is to let them off the hook. You would never see a guy take someone down after bad leg damage irl MMA. If anything the guy getting hit would pull guard.

Takedowns seem so random, i can have a guy miss a kick by a mile and he will still stuff you but i see Bigcee coming at me with a single leg and ill never be able to block it lol
