@torchos you can't block the attempt, once he has successfully pinned, you can flick the stick away and sometimes depending on your stamina and grapple advantage it will let you try to get out. Its a complete * show and a disgrace. The clinch and ground and pound are literal garbage made for the mobile version. They wanted systems that they could port directly, and these two systems are more mobile friendly. BRING BACK UFC 3 CLINCH AND GRAPPLE. Your new systems are bad, sorry. I'm sure you worked very hard on them, but they absolutely suck. They are bad ideas with bad implementation. Stop trying to be cute little innovators and make the * game that works.

    @TGFPdan when you say flick do you mean hold down u till you escape or just sling for a sec and sometimes that escapes?
    So much has been cut from the game with these little idea changes the only thing they worked on?

      @torchos You can't really block a clinch, just do your best to avoid getting too close to a player that is repeatedly doing it. Move your stick back from the opponent and in the direction where you see an opening.

    Wouldn't call the clinch garbage, but it does seem unfinished.

    Ground and pound on the other hand, seems overdone. In the game, anytime someone postures up, it just becomes 5 seconds of wildness. They should go back to UFC3 in that regard, and just transfer over framing hooks and certain other things. They actually found a way for there to be less finishing positions of the ground, because everything just ends up with knee on belly, even if you had them in the crucifix.
