I know its still early days but what moves do people think are essential to learn in career mode?

Salaverry
At least one power punch.
1 exotic submission (Americana from salaverry is my fav)
And i think imo either a Rubber and/or Butterfly guard

This^^^^
Since my CAF's takedown offense is 30, and my clinch grapple offense is 70, that throw is pretty much the only way I take people down.
And if you are a clinch fighter, the Muay Thai whip with the rear knee is killer.

The suplex to side control from double underhooks is very effective. The salaverry also.
Hendo's big right straight is an effective KO punch. You wait for your opponent to throw a lazy leg or body kick and you run right through them.
The dirty boxing uppercut (against the cage too) can be a very effective tool to turn a match around.

For me its a little different than I guess.
Quick Superman punch - usually how I can get inside for closer range strikes. Weak, but sets up combo's for me.
Head kick - Mostly used to add a little something for strikes, KO power as well
Clinch uppercut - KO people
As you can tell, I am more of a standup fighter (with this CAF). Striking is pretty much peaked, but I also try to keep a decent stat level for the ground too, in case thats where the fight winds up.

Elbow from Salaverry rapes people. I TKO'd Carlos Condit within the first 2 min of round one with that last night. A thing of beauty.

Me too! its all about letting them throw punches then immeditely grappling in the clinch which drains their energy then pulling guard (them thinking its a good thing for them lol) then immedietely pull rubberguard to gogoplata.
