PL is strong against SiO and GnP. Terrible against FF. BTW. once you have established the afore mentioned stats, you can then add balace to help round out your fighter.
As for MMArtist. In all of these years nobody has figured out that style... NOBODY! If I were you I would forget that style until you have learned other skills within the game. Even then, it will be an uphill battle with many disappointments. IMO.
If you sign up for the forums I can send you a PM (private message). However, to get you started with PL you should train Wrestling, Sambo, Strength. After those you might want to add JJ.
