I'm not active but I do really love tk and it's variations.
I think tk suffers the same issues with normal judo, where everything gets dm'd way too quickly and it doesn't feel fair sometimes. They fixed that by making judofrac. I think tk needs something similar (people requested making elbows and wrists stronger and I think that's a good start).
I would love to say that tk is its own mod with its own way of playing it (kinda the point of mods) and that people can't expect to treat it like lenshu or abd and have it work out, and that they need to properly learn how to play the mod but its clear people aren't a fan of how the mod works so changing it to fit the general public would probably be the better solution for now.
Though I also want to mention that the modlist for ranked should be diverse so that you can express your overall skill in toribash, and not just how good you are at grappling mod #4
