    Weird, effective strategies you've seen online?

    What are some weird yet effective strategies you've seen people do online?

    So I gave up on ut due to the item exchange fiasco and decided to try some ranked for the first time since the game launched.

    One guy only threw one punch with chad mendes and back dashed waiting for me to over commit and took me down. It worked pretty good but I almost subbed him twice. He finished with gnp. I don't think I'll have the patients to do this strategy though.

    What about you guys?

    I'm embarrassed to admit I lost to a guy throwing literally nothing but left hands with Conor....

    For some reason it just blew through all my strikes, and rocked me over and over...

    Dude has super legit takedown, clinch defense though, and stuffed every attempt.

    It was a while ago and I wasn't as good then, but still.... Dude beat me with nothing but a left hand.

      Played a guy who did nothing but walk me down with jabs and straights with Stipe. Ended up rocking me in the 3rd and finishing me.

        - Takedown to side control then deny few times and stay there for the whole round or lock on the kimura sub into a arm bar for quick easy wins.

        - Minute the fight starts clinch then straight into back sitting... ppl never seem to be able to deny you if you just transition fast to backsitting then deny few times and RNC to arm bar. Easy wins.

        - Anyone who has a standing guillotine choke From clinch just grab then the minute the fight starts or just wait till they throw strikes and just back dash then grab and rinse and repeat.

        These are just a few...

            That's actually a valid strategy that I've used on ut with 5* hendo heavy straight cross. It's very fast and has good priority over other moves so you basically keep slipping their strikes and keep landing that straight. It'll eventually break through the block and cause some real dmg lol

              I like to pick Mousasi and throw nothing but jabs.
              I also sometimes pick Rousey and let myself get punched in the head for the first couple minutes before clinching.
              It's the only 2 times I'll ever be cought playing SIM. Not so much effectiveness though. Have to say an entire strategy around Gus's crane kick is more suiting.

                  I seen in a Martialmind video someone used only stepping side kicks. That was very unique and skillful.

                    Holding forearms in front of face 95% of the fight. That's my biggest trick.

                      I try that all the time, I let myself get beat up till my opponent waste all there stamina going for the free win, then I clinch and throw up a flying sub with Ronda or Rose Thug. Also since Jon Jones takes a lot of damage you can do it with him then grab and guillotine choke for fast win and funny hate mail.

                          I like to play as Silva, back myself up against the fence, hold low block, and use head movement to dodge my opponents flurry. They almost always blow their wad, and you either parry one of the last strikes or slip counter, and get wicked rocks.

                          One of my favorite things to do.

                          I've also spent entire rounds with my back against the fence, letting my opponent tee off, and blow like half their stamina bar, and next round I dominate. Lmao.

                            To be fair Big Cee I think you are the cause of most of your losses. You literally quit EVERY match I see you in.

                            You should be banned from online play. This is not talking smack... but its true and goes for anyone with like a 10% or greater DNF.

                            They all should only be allowed to play in Quick Match or UT for a certain period of time (which increases with each suspension).
