What if because of training your "game" you lose sight of the effectiveness and possibility of using foul tactics? I think there's a chance you may forget them by developing the habit of using "sport" tactics and I use the term sport for lack of a better word, not to say that those methods are ineffective or anything because I know they are.

Wait a sec who cares if it's "pretend" anyway? I mean what makes it less effective if a few techniques are simulated?

I would define sport tactics as a way to set up a technique which if were being applied in a real situation would be set up with a small move or a feint. Usually such small nuances are not allowed in sparring or competition. Which is why when pulling off big oves like arm bars you have two competitors responding and reacting aggressively.

These smal techniques are very basic and easy to apply and by no means do they require endless practice such as the techniques used in sparring. Which is why I believe sparring is a very important aspect of training.

To answer your last question whether I consider arm locks and choking a sport tactic, I consider the manuevers used to apply such techniques as sport tactics. Because obviously durring sparring or competition there is a limit in the way you approach setting up these techniques.

The techniques themslves are apprpriate for sparring and competition (sport) because they can be controlled, just like many striking techniquss such s punches and kicks can be controlled.

There in lies the difference between sport and fighting.

While breaking someones arm or dislocating a shoulder is certainly a consequence or possibility in a grappling match, the actual goal is to win, usually by tapping out.

My intention is not to argue but to try to answer your question and for me to better understand it myself as I try to describe it.

I see, that's quite a difference indeed.
