erthtk is nice tho
Because a mod is made with something in mind doesn't mean the outcome always reflects that something..... if you didn't know this already.
Tk is 100% less viable. With 100DM, the chance for random DM's is much higher.
Some of my reasoning here:
#1 The combination of low DM and DQ floor creates games where a single random DM decides games where as in erthtk you have to work for the DQ win.
#2 The lower gravity makes snapkicks way more viable and lowers the need for good balance = less skill
#3 Anecdotal: My highest winstreak in erthtk is around 30 in public (vs public randoms) where as it's around 15 in normal TK. It's way harder to streak in vanilla TK, because the mod is more random and less skill based.
#4 Running in erthtk is super hard. In normal TK, super easy. You have to work for the point victory.
#5 self damage encourages good form and proper attacks while in normal TK you can flail without thinking if you choose to do so.
Literally all of the skill factors that are in normal TK are in ERTHTK while it removes a lot of normal TKs randomness.
