Monoplata from Mount, Spiral-Armbar from Mount
Marcelo guides Bryan through the Monoplata and Spiral-Armbar: If you time your opponent's Under-Hook correctly while mounting, you can trap their arm inside a Reverse Technical-Mount (aka Reverse S-Mount, Sugar-Mount, Marceloplata, et al.) for an attack to their elbow and/or shoulder. If you pass your leg across their face but fall towards that side, you will enter into a traditional Omoplata. However, if you keep your bodyweight onto the side opposite of the one your leg passes into, you can shift your weight onto the mat for a Monoplata Shoulder-Lock. If your other leg passes over your opponent's other arm, you may pin it down and transition from the attack on their shoulder into a Spiral-Armbar; this often affords one with both an attack to the opponent's shoulder joint as well as a complementary target in their elbow.
