    Try prevention. Usually prevention and guard retention are high percentage and counters comes after.

    I'm asking specifically for things you can do after you get caught in it. Not asking for ways to prevent (as those are quite obvious).

    The link I posted deals with early stage defence. Sometimes you need to work out things by experimenting too. Eg. you can work on doing the pass to understand how the pass works, and which grips/things you need to achieve at certain stages of the pass. Then, go back on bottom and work out ways to prevent your opponent achieving the grips/things they need to complete the pass at each stage. eg. late stage your guard is almost passed, if possible work out how to deny them the cross face using your free arm, or make their cross face sub optimal etc.....

    When they grab let's say your left arm, you need to frame under the chin on the cross shoulder with the right arm.
    From there you can usually hip out and land a triangle.
    I can make a video and post a link here.
