I'm still within my first year of REALLY doing BJJ consistently 3-4 times a week.

I was reading that tips for newbie post. One tip said that until you're a solid level Blue, you'll probably only land 3-5 subs consistently.

My favorite move is the darce/brabo. Is it too advanced for someone in my situation?

I only ask because the basic subs are like:

triangle
armbar
keylock
kimura
rnc
guillotine
etc.

Should I focus more on these or is it okay that I'm going for the darce a lot, because I do catch it at least once or twice every night that we roll. So I'm not a guy who's going and going for it, but never gets it.
