In this week's episode, we attempt to de-mystify the world of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu competitions. We talk about what makes tournaments different, including size, rule sets, and prestige; what to look for in your first BJJ tournament; and where to sign up. We also do a deep dive into the world of IBJJF, explaining the seeding and ranking system and why they matter. Then we explore ADCC, another prestigious BJJ tournament, and talk about why many consider it to be the top-tier nogi tournament and what makes it different from IBJJF.
