When teaching the best BJJ submissions to beginners at my gym, I start with the rear naked choke, armbar, triangle choke, and kimura — what I consider to be the highest, S-tier submissions. The heel hook is also an S-tier submission, but I like to teach the straight ankle lock first as it’s easier to learn.

Beyond those top 5, I’d teach them the bow and arrow choke, guillotine, D’arce choke, arm triangle, and cross-collar choke — the A-tier submissions.

My reasoning is simple. If you’re a new student at my gym, you want to learn how to submit people. So I’m going to teach you the submissions that are relatively easy to learn, are proven at the highest level, and can be chained with other submissions, sweeps, & guard passes.

In this article, I’ll break down the best 18 BJJ submissions, my favorite position to hit them from, and my rationale for their ranking. Whether you’re new to BJJ or you’re more experienced and wondering which submissions to focus on, you’ll learn why certain BJJ techniques are better than others. This is key for creating your own unique game.

S-Tier BJJ Submissions

S-tier BJJ submissions are the best submissions in the sport. They’re proven at the highest level of competition. They’re done from dominant positions or are widely applicable from many positions. They can also work as dominant positions themselves to chain to sweeps, guard passes, back takes, or other submissions. You can build your entire game around these submissions from white belt to black belt and be an amazing grappler.

1. Rear Naked Choke

Best from: Back Control | No-Gi

The rear naked choke is the single highest-percentage finish in both BJJ competition and the UFC. A peer-reviewed analysis of UFC fights found that rear naked chokes made up 32.7% of all submission finishes. In the 2023 IBJJF World Championships, 45% of all submission finishes were rear naked chokes. Nicky Rod won every match — and $1 million — at the first Craig Jones Invitational with the RNC alone. There’s a reason it’s one of the six submissions John Danaher teaches: if you have the back, this is the move.

The detail that separates a tight RNC from a face-crank is getting the choking arm under the chin, not across the jaw. With proper positioning — choking arm around the neck, hand gripping your opposite bicep, non-choking hand behind their head — the choke restricts blood flow and can put someone to sleep in under a few seconds. Beginners burn themselves out squeezing as hard as they can. You don’t need to. Constant, increasing pressure with good mechanics is what gets the tap.

I teach the RNC as the first submission from back control because the path is so clean: take the back, establish your seatbelt grip, and start looking for the choke. In no-gi, this is always my first choice from the back position. In the gi, the bow & arrow choke is a better option if you can establish a grip on the opponent’s collar. But the RNC is the universal default.

For the full RNC breakdown — including how to finish through chin defense and escape a locked-in RNC — check out my rear naked choke guide.

2. Armbar

Best from: Mount | Gi & No-Gi

The armbar is the most versatile joint lock in jiu-jitsu. After the rear naked choke and the guillotine choke, it’s the third most common overall submission in the UFC and is consistently among the top 3 in BJJ tournaments. It works from mount, closed guard, side control — arguably more positions than any other submission on this list. It was the first submission I learned in my very first BJJ class, and it’s the first one I teach every new white belt at InFighting.

The detail that makes or breaks the armbar isn’t the finish — it’s everything before it. Beginners focus on extending the arm. But the real work is breaking your opponent’s alignment first. If their spine is straight and their elbows are connected to their knees, you’re not going to have the leverage to extend and finish the armbar.

My coach Ritchie Yip teaches a 5-step armbar from mount that’s about systematically breaking their alignment. Twist their neck, isolate the limb, make your S-mount miserable, and the tap almost takes care of itself.

From mount, I go for the armbar when my opponent brings their hands up to defend chokes. The second they focus on protecting their neck, the arm is exposed. If they’re keeping their elbows tight to their body instead, that’s when I’ll start working for the arm triangle. If I’m in the gi, I’ll look for a cross-collar choke.

For the full 5-step armbar setup I teach from mount, check out my armbar for beginners guide.

3. Heel Hook

Best from: Leg Entanglements (Ashi Garami, Saddle/Inside Sankaku) | No-Gi

The heel hook is one of the most dangerous submissions in modern no-gi BJJ. Although it’s relatively rare in the UFC, it’s often the top submission in major no-gi tournaments like ADCC. It attacks the knee and ankle simultaneously by twisting the heel, and it forces the tap faster than almost any other technique. Among all the leg locks, the heel hook is the one that changed the entire sport — especially after the Danaher Death Squad built an entire system around it.

The detail that matters: control the knee line before you try and finish the submission. If you don’t have their knee pinched and controlled, they’ll can spin out and escape. Beginners grab the heel first and wonder why it doesn’t work. The sequence is position (leg entanglement), control (knee line), then submission (heel rotation).

A safety note I give every student: if you’re applying the heel hook in the training room, focus on control and apply it lightly. If you’re caught in a heel hook and can’t escape, tap before you feel pain. The heel hook damages ligaments that don’t heal well, and the pain can come after the damage is already done.

If you know how to do the straight ankle lock (number 9 on this list), look for the heel hook when your opponent defends by turning away, thus exposing the heel. If you force heel exposure in a leg entanglement, you can follow up with the heel hook.

4. Triangle Choke

Best from: Closed Guard & Mount | Gi & No-Gi

The triangle choke is my go-to submission — my A-game since white belt. I’ve tapped black belts with this exact setup as a blue belt. Behind the rear-naked choke and guillotine, it’s one of the top strangle finishes in the UFC. In BJJ tournaments, it’s often one of the top 3-5 submissions hit in both gi and no-gi. It’s one of the six submissions John Danaher teaches, and it’s consistently rated S-tier for good reason: there are dozens of setups, it works in both gi and no-gi, and once it’s locked in, it’s difficult to escape.

The detail that changed everything for me was the angle. My coach Ritchie Yip has a great line: “It’s called a tri-ANGLE, not tri-in-front-of-the-guy.” Beginners lock their legs and squeeze straight on. That’s a triangle you can posture out of. The real finish comes from creating a perpendicular angle — your body facing the side of theirs, not straight on. When you get that angle, the choke is tighter, you’re harder to stack, and the easy escapes disappear. You don’t need to squeeze harder. You need to angle better.

From closed guard, I go for the overhook first to trap the one arm out. Then, with my other hand, I push their hand towards their chest, swinging my right leg over their neck for the one arm in. Then I work for the angle and finish the choke. If I struggle to get the overhook or trap their other hand, I look for other attacks or sweeps. The triangle, armbar, and omoplata form a classic combination from guard: when one fails, the next one is right there. But the triangle is my first choice because once I lock the angle, I know it’s over.

For my full triangle choke setup from closed guard — including the overhook entry and how to finish with the perpendicular angle — check out my triangle choke guide.

5. Kimura

Best from: Side Control | Gi & No-Gi

The Kimura is the 6th most common submission in the UFC with 40 victories — but that stat undersells it. The Kimura is more than a submission. It’s a position, a control system, and a launchpad for transitions. Entire systems are being built around the “Kimura trap,” and that’s why I rank it S-tier when most lists put it lower.

Here’s what most articles miss: the Kimura grip is one of the most versatile control tools in all of jiu-jitsu. From top side control, I can use it to finish the submission, roll into a back take, or transition to other attacks. From a bottom position, the Kimura grip lets me sweep, get underneath my opponent, and reverse the position. When I lock up the figure-four grip, the submission is just one of several options — and that’s what makes it foundational.

When the Kimura does work as a pure submission, the key detail is your body positioning after you get the grip. Don’t rush the finish. Jump your leg over their head, use your bodyweight to break their alignment, lift their body off the mat so nothing blocks the shoulder rotation, and then turn the key. The “rev your wrists” detail — flexing them like you’re revving a motorcycle — often gets the tap before you even rotate the arm.

I teach the Kimura before the Americana from side control because the grip is more versatile. Even if the submission fails, the sweep or back take is right there. The Americana is a dead end by comparison — if they defend it, you have to start over. With the Kimura, you always have a next move.

For my full Kimura setup from top side control — including the rolling back take and how to use the Kimura as a position — check out my Kimura lock guide.

A-Tier BJJ Submissions

A-tier BJJ submissions are excellent, high-percentage techniques that work at the highest level. However, they lack some of the positional dominance, versatility, and ease-of-use of the S-tier submissions. But you could certainly build a strong game around these submissions and do very well. And at the A & B-tier, subjectivity comes into play. You could make the argument that the guillotine is an S-tier submission or the cross-collar choke is a C-tier submission and I wouldn’t argue with you. I’m putting my personal bias and choice into this list in terms of what works best for me, and what works best for my students and training partners.

6. Bow & Arrow Choke

Best from: Back Control | Gi Only

The bow & arrow choke has one of the highest submission rates in IBJJF competition. It uses your opponent’s own collar against them, and the leverage from the grip is enormous. In the gi, I find it easier to finish than the RNC because the lapel grip is more difficult to defend.

The detail that makes the bow & arrow work is controlling their leg with your free hand. Without that leg control, they can spin and escape before you tighten the choke. Lock the collar grip, grab the leg, trap the defending arm, and extend — that’s the sequence. The finish feels almost effortless when all three pieces are in place.

This would be S-tier if it worked in no-gi, but it’s a gi-only move. That’s the one thing holding it back. In gi training from the back, I’ll go for the bow & arrow over the RNC when I already have a collar grip established.

7. Guillotine Choke

Best from: Front Headlock | No-Gi

The guillotine is the best counter to a sloppy takedown attempt, and one of the best overall chokes. After the rear naked choke, it’s the second most common strangle in the UFC. Anytime someone shoots in without good head position, the guillotine is right there. It’s fast, it’s versatile, and it transitions naturally into other front headlock attacks.

The detail: it’s about wrist positioning and compression, not arm strength or extension. Get your wrist bone under their chin, close your guard or establish a strong body lock, and crunch your entire body — chest to knees — to apply the pressure. Beginners just squeeze their arms and gas out. Or they “extend” backwards with the grip instead of crunching inward with compression. The crunch is what finishes the choke.

The arm-in guillotine is higher percentage than the arm-out version because it controls posture better, but both have their place — the arm-out can be a quick finish when you can’t get the arm-in grip deep enough.

8. D’arce Choke

Best from: Side Control | No-Gi

There have been 20 D’arce finishes in the UFC — making it a relatively rare submission in MMA. But in jiu-jitsu, the D’arce is a beast, especially for grapplers with long arms. It’s one of my go-to submissions from top side control in no-gi.

The detail that separates a tight D’arce from a failed one is arm depth. You can technically finish by grabbing your forearm or bicep. But when your arm is so deep you can grab your own tricep, the choke becomes airtight — a true blood choke. The trick is getting your arm that deep. I use a “window washing” motion with my attacking hand to thread it through, and I keep the bottom player’s arm and head tucked in tight — like feeding garbage into a trash compactor. If they get any space, the choke leaks.

The second key: finish from mount, not from the side. When I try to finish the D’arce from side position, the bottom player escapes about half the time. When I lock up the D’arce and then walk my feet over into mount before sinking my hips, I get the tap 95% of the time. So as soon as you get the grip, stop thinking about the submission and start thinking about the position — get to mount, then finish.

The D’arce is less effective in the gi because the fabric friction makes it harder to shoot your arm through. So this is primarily a no-gi weapon for me.

For the full 5-step D’arce setup from side control — including how to bait your opponent into the position and the mount finish — check out my D’arce choke guide.

9. Straight Ankle Lock

Best from: Leg Entanglements (Ashi Garami, Single Leg X) | Gi & No-Gi

The straight ankle lock is the gateway to the entire leg lock game. It’s the first legal leglock for white belts in IBJJF, and it teaches you everything about lower body control, leg entanglement positions, and finishing mechanics that you’ll need when you eventually add heel hooks and kneebars.

The detail that most beginners get wrong is the finish. They just squeeze and hope for the best. The real mechanics: establish single leg X to control the leg, wrap the ankle like you’re grabbing a guillotine on their foot, get a figure-four grip on the tibia, bring your nose to your knee to block them from sitting up, and then extend by looking behind you. The secret to finishing this is your lat — bring it backward onto their toes to prevent them from dorsiflexing. If they can pull their toes toward themselves, your ankle lock is dead. If your lat blocks that, you’ll be able to extend the ankle and get the tap.

I teach the ankle lock before the heel hook because it builds the positional foundations. Students who learn the ankle lock first understand ashi garami, know how to control a leg, and respect the mechanics of leg attacks. Students who jump straight to heel hooks tend to rely on the heel hook’s power and never develop the control game underneath it. The ankle lock might be overshadowed by the heel hook at higher levels, but the skills it teaches are irreplaceable.

For my full ankle lock setup from single leg X — including the lat detail and how to defend against it — check out my ankle lock guide.

10. Arm Triangle

Best from: Mount | No-Gi

The arm triangle is one of the lowest-risk submissions in jiu-jitsu. You maintain a dominant position the entire time — from the setup all the way through the finish. If the choke doesn’t work, you’re still in mount or side control. You never give up anything to try it.

The detail: depth of the “bite.” Your bicep needs to be tight against one side of their neck, and their own shoulder needs to be pressed against the other side. If the arm is shallow, they can breathe and wait you out. If it’s deep, they’re done. The way to get that depth is to drive their arm across their face first — I use my head or my shoulder to walk their arm across — and then sink the choke once the arm is trapped against their neck.

The arm triangle is common at purple belt and above but less so with beginners. The reason it’s A-tier and not S-tier is that it requires precise positional understanding to set up. If you’re against someone stronger than you, it’s difficult to walk their arm up against their neck. And finishing the choke requires a lot of bodily precision. You need to constantly adjust your choking arm and head to get their arm in the right place.

11. Cross-Collar Choke

Best from: Mount | Gi Only

Most tier lists rank the cross-collar choke as C or D-tier. I disagree. Here’s why I teach it early. One of the most common questions I get from new students is how to attack from mount. I teach them the cross-collar choke as their first submission from mount because it’s simple, effective, and teaches strong gi-submission principles.

The cross-collar choke forces students to understand collar grip mechanics that transfer to everything else in the gi. Getting the first grip deep — all the way behind the neck — and the second grip across teaches hand placement and posture control that makes your entire gi game sharper. In that sense, it’s a teaching tool as much as a submission.

The detail that most people get wrong is where they try to finish it. From closed guard, the cross-collar choke is very difficult to complete — the bottom position makes it hard to generate enough pressure. From mount, it’s a completely different technique. You have gravity, bodyweight, and the ability to drop your head to the mat to seal the choke.

From mount in the gi, I’ll go for the cross-collar choke as my first attack. I expect the bottom player to bring their arms up to defend their neck. If they don’t, I finish the choke. If they do, I transition into an armbar, mounted triangle, Americana, or arm triangle. It’s one of the first chain-submissions I learned and still use to this day.

B-Tier BJJ Submissions

B-tier BJJ submissions are strong attacks, but they’re not the best of the best. They’re noticeably a step down from S and A-tier submissions in terms of their overall effectiveness. However, that doesn’t mean they don’t work or are hard to hit. If you’ve ever met a kneebar or loop choke specialist, you know what I mean. They can be “great,” but they are a bit more difficult to either set up or finish than the higher-tier submissions. The are seen noticeably less at the highest level of competition.

12. Kneebar

Best from: Top Half Guard | Primarily No-Gi

The “armbar of the legs” — same hyperextension mechanics, different limb. It’s one of the best leglock options after the straight ankle lock and heel hook. The detail: pinch your knees together and extend your hips. Loose knees mean no finish. And it’s not just a leg entanglement move. Kneebars show up more often than people expect during guard passes and scrambles.

13. Omoplata

Best from: Bottom Closed Guard | Gi

The omoplata is a “hip kimura” — a shoulder lock using your legs instead of your arms. It’s underrated as a submission and elite as a positional tool. Even when the finish isn’t there, it gives you a sweep from closed guard to a top position, and from there you can attack the shoulder, hunt the back, or transition to other submissions.

The key detail: stay heavy on the shoulder and control their posture. If they posture up, you lose everything — so get that seatbelt grip over their shoulder and keep them flat. And the omoplata connects directly to the triangle and armbar from guard: when one fails, the next one is right there. It’s one of the first combinations I teach from closed guard.

For the full omoplata setup from closed guard — including the arm drag entry and how to use it as a sweep — check out my omoplata guide.

14. Americana

Best from: Mount, Side Control | Gi & No-Gi

There have been roughly 4 Americana finishes in the entire history of the UFC — and that tells you something. It’s often the first submission beginners learn from mount, and it teaches you the fundamental concept of isolating a limb and attacking a joint. But it’s easy to defend at higher levels, which is why it’s B-tier.

Where the Americana really shines is as a position, not a submission. I expect my training partners to defend it. When they turn to their side to escape, I take the back with a gift wrap. When they straighten their arm, I switch to the armbar or arm triangle. As a white belt, I used the Americana to get taps. As a purple belt, I use it to set up everything else.

For the full 5-step Americana from mount — including the “rev your wrists” detail and how to use it as a transition tool — check out my Americana guide.

15. Loop Choke

Best from: Butterfly Guard | Gi

Powerful and underutilized. The loop choke works best when your opponent puts their head down while pressure passing — you sneak the collar grip and cinch the choke before they realize what’s happening.

The finish comes on fast, and if it fails, you’re in almost no danger. It’s a low-risk, high-reward attack that most people don’t see coming because so few grapplers drill it consistently. I use it as one of my main attacks against pressure passers, and it always makes them reconsider their approach (or get choked).

16. Toe Hold

Best from: Leg Entanglements, 50/50 | Gi & No-Gi

The toe hold is often my backup option when the knee bar or other leg attacks aren’t available — either because of the position, the ruleset, or the angle. The finishing mechanics are solid, but the kneebar is usually the better choice when both are available because the control is tighter. Still worth knowing, especially in gi competition where heel hooks are restricted and the toe hold gives you a legal path to a leg submission finish.

17. Ezekiel Choke

Best from: Top Mount | Gi

The sneakiest choke in jiu-jitsu. The Ezekiel can be hit from inside your opponent’s closed guard — one of very few submissions that works from that position. In the gi, you use your sleeve to create the choking pressure; in no-gi, your fist against the throat.

The Ezekiel carried me through my white belt days, and I still catch unsuspecting training partners with it as a purple belt. It’s easy to defend once your opponent knows it’s coming, but that’s actually the point — when they bring their hands up to block the choke, they create space for you to advance to high mount and hunt armbars or triangles. Think of it as a position that opens doors, not just a submission.

For the full Ezekiel choke breakdown — including gi and no-gi variations from both mount and closed guard — check out my Ezekiel choke guide.

18. Baseball Bat Choke

Best from: Side Control | Gi Only

The baseball bat choke can be devastating when it lands — the squeeze is one of the tightest in jiu-jitsu. The risk: if you screw up the grip placement or don’t commit to the rotation, you can give up your position entirely. It requires precise hand positioning on the collar and a committed spin to the opposite side. This is a specialist move that rewards dedicated practice but punishes sloppiness.

C-Tier BJJ Submissions: Situational/Niche

C-tier BJJ submissions are good to know — but they are either situational and/or niche. They only work well under certain conditions, and often require more skill than higher-tier submissions (despite being less effective). I know black belts who NEVER use them and are still amazing at jiu-jitsu.

North-South Choke — A reverse guillotine from the north-south position. I find it difficult to finish the choke. There are almost always better options unless you master it.

Clock Choke — A gi-based choke from the top turtle position. If the bottom player is any good, they’ll disallow you from getting their collar. I like taking the back from here instead.

Wristlock — Ahh, the wristlock. A cheeky move that has its place, but it’s relatively easy to defend. I only go for it when I want to frustrate my training partner.

Anaconda Choke — The weakest of the front headlock variations. I’m just not a fan of it.

Von Flue Choke — A strong counter to the guillotine, but extremely situational. I don’t want cauliflower ears, so I avoid getting into a guillotine in the first place.

Brabo Choke — The yes-gi variation of the D’arce choke where you use their lapel to choke them out. It’s fun, but I find there are easier moves to hit.

Paper Cutter Choke — A neat move from side control. Requires too many steps and precision for me — I prefer to just go into mount.

Estima Lock — A nice submission when it appears in front of you, but it’s super situational. Tough to hit on a decent guard player.

Buggy Choke — Yes, you’ll hit it every now and then. But do you really want to practice submissions from bottom side control? It’s a fun submission, but very easy to defend.

Peruvian Necktie — An interesting front headlock variation. There are just so many better options from that position.

Calf Slicer — Another fun, but situational and niche move. I’ve never been tapped by one nor gone for one.

Gogoplata — Good luck having the flexibility to pull this one off. A cool-looking submission, but my knees and ankles hurt just looking at it. Submissions are supposed to threaten your training partner, not yourself.

Electric Chair — One of Eddie Bravo’s 10th Planet moves. It looks awesome, but it’s just not my preferred game.

Twister — A brutal submission from the back. Very situational and requires a complex setup. I think there are better options from the back position.

Banana Split — A submission that attacks the groin and hips. Interesting move, but I’m not a fan.

Suloev Stretch — A nasty submission where you attack your opponent’s hamstring by hyperextending it. Tough to get into it.

Can Opener — An often illegal submission that won’t win you any friends. I actually like my training partners so I never go for this one.

Bulldog Choke — A classic bully move that is very low percentage and won’t work on anyone good. Not a fan.

Boston Crab — A WWE-style move that is as niche as it gets. I’ve never seen it done in-person in 7+ years of training.

Bicep Slicer — A painful compression lock that’s rarely the best option from any position. Low percentage and situational.

Tarikoplata — A creative shoulder lock variation, but extremely niche with limited practical application.

Scissor Lock — Tough to escape if locked up, but incredibly difficult to set up deliberately. Not worth the effort.

Mir Lock — Named after Frank Mir. A low-percentage technique that requires very specific conditions to hit.

Frequently Asked Questions About BJJ Submissions

What is the most effective submission in jiu-jitsu?

The most effective submission in jiu-jitsu is the rear-naked choke. A peer-reviewed analysis of UFC fights found that rear naked chokes made up 32.7% of all submission finishes. In sport BJJ, the rear naked choke frequently leads in terms of highest percentage of submission wins. In the 2023 IBJJF World Championships, 45% of all submission finishes were rear naked chokes. If you are able to take and hold the back position, there is a very good chance you’ll be able to finish the match with a rear-naked choke.

What are the top 3 basic submissions in jiu-jitsu?

The top 3 basic submissions in BJJ are 1) armbar, 2) rear naked choke, and 3) cross-collar choke. These are 3 high-tier submissions that I often teach beginners on day 1. I teach the armbar to beginners because it’s a great threat from dozens of positions and teaches many fundamental concepts of jiu-jitsu. I teach the rear naked choke to beginners because it’s easy to learn and it encourages them to hunt for the back position. And I teach the cross-collar choke to beginners because it teaches them how to attack from mount using their opponent’s gi. I still use these 3 “basic” submissions as a purple belt.

What BJJ submissions are illegal?

This depends on which gym you train at and which competition ruleset you’re competing under. The IBJJF has a solid reference list of illegal techniques based on age and belt level that I find to be widely applicable even to the training room. Some moves like wrist locks are illegal until you’re a blue/purple belt. Some kneebars, toe holds, and heel hooks are illegal until you’re a brown/black belt. And some moves are banned outright, such as slams, scissor takedowns, bending fingers backwards, and suplex takedowns. Ask the coach at your gym or your tournament organizer for their list of illegal submissions. But generally, I find the IBJJF list a good point of reference and widely applicable to most BJJ gyms.

Can white belts do heel hooks?

In most gyms, heel hooks are not allowed at white belt. But some gyms teach heel hooks to students from day 1. Ask your instructor the rules at your gym. At my gym, we teach the straight ankle lock to white belts. And we start teaching them heel hooks at blue belt.

At most competitions, heel hooks are mostly not allowed at white belt — but it depends on the competition. In IBJJF competition, heel hooks are banned in the gi at all belt levels. They’re only allowed in no-gi tournaments at the brown and black belt level. However, some smaller, independent tournaments allow heel hooks for white belts in no-gi matches.

Final Thoughts

BJJ submissions are a big part of why we all start training jiu-jitsu: to submit our opponent.

However, they’re not all created equal. Some work at the highest levels of competition, and others are cheeky niche moves that you’ll only try on someone in the training room.

The list above is how I organize submissions when teaching BJJ to beginners: focusing on the top-tier moves first to build good habits from the day they start training.
