Depends on what you're doing. Most of the standup armbars are intended to break the arm (elbow) and I've used a couple to that effect. Most are similar to judo stand armbars some similar to aikido. We had the basics the arm entrapped holds, inside/outside wristlocks, cross armbar, hammer-lock, over the top armbar, hip throw, sweeping/reaping throws, scissor throw/takedown, and there were a few others. There was actually a double leg throw/takedown similar to traditional jujitsu same technique.
In some cases, I got some good points in from throws, the wheel throw and the scissor leg takedown especially. I had a couple wins off the cross armbar takedown, mostly I just punched hard
Wasn't an issue with submissions it was mostly ten second hold downs and throws that left people pretty much stunned for a few seconds.
