Driving TD's
An honest god sent. If you told me we may be getting driving td's before the patch dropped, i'd probably laugh and say wait until UFC 4 for that. This one totally caught me by surprise and its gave grappling a much needed lift. Stellar addition! However, this is too good an addition to not expand upon imo. I hope the devs are willing to expand upon this at some point, to where we can have driving single leg td's too and allow these driving td's to end up on the ground in certain situations also and not just on the cage. That way we can have things like this going on...
Driving Single
Allow us to drive the opponent back with single legs too

Driving td's to the ground
This can be done with the same stamina logic in place for when the defender sprawls on driving td's. Once the defenders stamina drops below a certain threshold (before the td hits the cage), they'll get taken down.

Spear TD
This was a good addition. I know its currently not playing out to well balance wise, but I can see the direction the devs were headed with it. More ways to get the fight to the mat were needed. I get the gesture behind it and I feel with a few tweaks (and a rating cap lol), this should be working as the devs intended.
TD Feints
I like this as it allows you to keep the opponent guessing and mix things up, but I just wish it flowed with strikes. Like I wanna be able to td feint into strikes and pull off stuff like this after my opponent takes the bait...

Sprinting Changes
Great changes cuz first and foremost, I don't have to run at my opponent like a madman if I don't want to. This is what most wanted all along...we want to run when we choose to. Happy the devs finally addressed this. Also like that with the other changes, i'm not accidentally running and I can get my movement off more efficiently.
Final Verdict
Overall a really good patch that has given a much needed lift to grappling. Was gonna give it a 8/10, but extra point for giving Maia a double leg and adding the american gangster! 9/10 for me lol
