It is dreadful to play against the Empire in TDM because of the courser class, it is more than feasible to get more than 100 kills in TDM.
I was just playing casually and got 80/15 with a 30-40 player lobby if I would try hard then a 100 kills is fairly easily achieved and I'm not even among the better players in the game.
About 70% of the hits are instant kills on a courser because most people have low armour and you just have immense speed. This is wouldn't be a problem if it is hard to hit people and the class would be costly but neither is true.
Still, you could say: "git gud", but there are 2 problems with that imo.
First is that TDM should be fairly casual and for new players, it is together with Siege the mode for the new player. Now they just get smacked 24/7 if they play against the empire, you kill people that spawned 2 seconds ago.
Secondly is the bump hit which ties into the first point. People with less skill take shields to make blocking easier, with the courser you can easily bump someone and then instant kill him with the menavlion basically nothing you can do. Even people with lots of skill die constantly to this because as a courser you just ride into a fight and smack whatever you see.
The courser is broken for TDM and ruins the experience for people, especially new players.
Here is a little sample of my afternoon whacking people:
