Niche but effective
This won't be your main guard but it's an amazing supplementary position. When people pressure into your half guard, the octopus entries catch them completely off guard. Adam shows clean back takes from here that nobody at my gym can defend because they've never seen it.

Unique position, well taught
The octopus guard is a weird position that not many people know how to deal with. Adam breaks it down really well — entries from half guard, back takes, sweeps. It works especially well against bigger training partners who want to pressure pass. Fun addition to your game.
