[Good Grappler]

Aside from just shooting a double or single leg - we all know how to do that - I’m wondering what sort of tactics players have been using to get fights to the ground. Particularly in a competitive atmosphere, when your opponent knows it’s coming.

Is there a specific sequence or tactic you use to get fights to the ground? Whether it be from the clinch, against cage, pulling guard, or a shoot TD... please share your tactic here. It would be cool to get a solid list of tactics in this thread.

List the entire sequence, starting from standing. Name the positions, and buttons you press too, if possible.


For example, if this thread was about UFC 3, here would be a few examples of “sequences” to get fights to the ground (aside from the obvious single/double leg):

- Land a rear punch, then go for the over/under clinch entry. Once in the clinch, take a sidestep by pushing up or down on the LS. Then go for a hip toss.

- Fake a double leg, then shoot a double leg

- Push your opponent backwards, then go for an immediate single leg
