My first Gi fight that was after a week of training in Gi. Was able to calm down by listening to rhythmic music just before the beginning of the fight. Oppo jump-guarded me but I felt comfortable and started to get out. He took my arm and armbared me very quickly so my arm crunched 3 times before I managed to tap. It was on 0:32.
I felt like the skill gap was too wide to actually do anything.
My first ever jiu-jitsu competition. Was super nervous. As I practiced very little wrestling so decided to pull guard almost immediately. After some defending from the ground, opponent just jumped on me in mount and was trying to choke me. I was able to shrimp out and retain guard, but it was already around 2 minutes into the fight and I was super washed out. After some time he did exactly the same thing and then he ezekieled me at 4:25.

It is an incomplete attempt to dump sequences I practiced in classes. Colored cards are positions, connections between cards are transitions and clouds are finishes.
