Keenan Cornelius

Keenan Cornelius's style

Keenan built a unique gi game around worm guard, lapel lassos, and the Squid Guard — entirely new positions that forced opponents into chess they hadn't studied. World champion at brown belt who turned into one of the most prolific gi-game innovators in BJJ history.

What your answers said about you

You don't accept that the meta is finished. You'd rather build your own position than copy someone else's. You're a thinker, a teacher, and the kind of student who reads more than they roll — and then the rolling looks like nothing anyone expected.
