Tsurikomi goshi and seoi nage feel very similar. Any suggestions for when to choose one over the other?

    I mean if you look at competition results, it’s very rare for someone to score with tsurikomi goshi, and it’s just generally a more awkward throw to score with.

    Generally it’s not as powerful a throw as seoinage and if someone sees it coming it’s easier to block by pulling backwards.

    So if I had a choice I would always do seoinage.
