Pulling is probably the main way a SK can set himself apart.
Besides that I assume it's mostly the little things that add up together. DC aggro is largely wasted if you use it for the initial aggro, due to initial aggro cap. Don't just spam DC, cycle it with AC tap for more threat but at higher mana cost. SKs have some cool other spells too. Pets add DPS if you aren't pulling even if they are a bit more work to manage so they don't get killed by 2 ripostes or whatever. Looks like this CH is cutting it close? Lifetaps!
Compared to someone who just picks a target that isn't CCed and starts spamming DC, while maybe remembering to face so the magician pet can backstab without the magician having to miss med ticks to reposition his pet. Etc.
