Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:The higher the pitch, the harder and faster it is.
Not true. A steeper slope means less side to side action. Depends on the game whether that makes it easier or harder. And it’s only faster when the ball is rolling down the slope. It’s slower when rolling up the slope, which means ramp shots are generally slightly harder.
Reducing player control is key to making a table more difficult. Sensitive slings, tight tilt, bouncy rubber, wide outlanes.
