[What are your experiences with submissions? Wrestling vs BJJ]

Regarding the (14) Sensational Wrestler, Blue Belt vs (1) Useless Wrestler, Black Belt...

I'd say, transition into dominant positions and control! While trying to work a little offense too. But still be worried about the Black Belt if you give him any opportunities to go for submissions.

Example: If your fighter can get to the mount and control from there, I think he should be fine. But if you stay in the Black Belts guard, or he happens to take your back. I'd definitely be worried. 

Your worried about the Black belts submissions, so try to take those away from him or make him only try submissions here from difficult positions.

Is it more likely that a belts submissions won't work from a difficult position? Or what does that relate to?

One other comment that occurred to me on reading through my own post:

There should be more "extra points" for extra years of a fighter's starting age.  Right now to have a fighter who will become competitive at all at the highest levels it's necessary to make an 18 year old project (or younger).

It should remain a long term advantage to start younger, or everyone would just make 24-25 year olds, but it should be a small enough advantage it can be overcome, or at least the difference between starting at 18 or 21 should be, maybe a 25 year old should always have to pay for having it easier early by peaking considerably lower.

I now make mostly 24 year olds, some 25 and some 23, with a few 18 year old projects (I do have fighters between those ages, but they were made before enough people explained to me why one either makes a project or an immediate fighter, with no middle ground, and then I stopped).

I go more for the higher ages with just a few projects that I hope to make great because the super-high levels aren't so appealing because everyone will be great at everything, so there's not enough variety, and I'm also not very patient and would rather make a fighter who can fight soon.  I did make a few because I'd like to have a great fighter or two if I hang around for years, which I hope I do. 

But the "dead group" of 19-22 year olds that I'll likely never make another of...well, I'd like it to be less unreasonable to make those.

The dead group of 19-22 year olds is almost like real life. There are always fighters who will never become professionals at any level.
