I think the EXACT control scheme is protected, since the ONLY similarity stoked has is the crouch and jump control. I think you'd run into issues with EA if you had all the same fliptrick controls, though.
Regardless, I still play TH Proving Grounds on Sim Mode occasionally and have fun, I'm perfectly fine with a new control scheme.
