I remember reading various methods like holding the stick down after you click it, and pulsating crap. That never worked - so I found my own way.
If you click the stick in and then let go of it, your stamina stops draining because you apparently aren't putting total effort into it unless you spin. So the AI's goes down because they're trying to escape. Well if you can get it low enough on the bar and then slap a sub attempt on and let go of the stick, there's will drain to almost nothing quickly while yours will stay pretty close to where it was. From there, shine like a mo-fo.
I just got the "win with a submission transition" with BJ Penn doing this in the 2nd round.
So it takes a little bit of time; I worked my opponent's body until the second then I pulled guard and rubber guarded him. From there, the AI drained his stamina to about 1/2, then I did my little method.
Just tapped Anthony Johnson in 1:30 on Expert with Dustin H.
So I've been testing this out with those two. I've now got 6 subs in the first round - armbars, kimura's, and triangles.
It's just a matter of getting him to waste a bit of energy on the ground (say around half) and then slapping on the sub, letting go of the stick, watching his drain while yours hardly moves, and then shining. Sometimes I get it on the first try, sometimes it takes a few sub attempts.
I did pick the best vs worst submission guys, but I just wanted to see if I could get the "under a minute sub" thing. I'm still working on that. But it's better to me now.
*and I got the achievement. I took him down, he tried to get up, then he did get up. So I stood - grapple fought with him for 20 seconds or so - so both our stamina were really low. Pulled him down, put him in rubber guard, slapped the sub on right away (triangle). He was around 2/3's full on stamina at this point... I let it drain and with around 1/4th stamina for him I switched to the armbar and locked that sucker in.
This changes the game for me big time.

Later today or tomorrow I am going to start a write-up on everything I found out about the submission game. While it is not that I can submit at will, I can usually make the cpu tap earlier or later in the 1st or 2nd round without rocking them. stay tuned if you really want some insides an opinions. It will be a long read.
