Having the right and suitable clients is what makes torrenting very easy and awesome experience. Sometimes we often look for alternate experience or new client for different reasons. Based on my experience, here are few that has utorrent-like interface that may suit your taste.
rtorrent/rutorrent - GNU/Linux based. best bt-client ever; enough to make people switch OS. It has enriched
Suggested Version - libtorrent 0.13.6 +rtorrent 0.9.6
Suggested Version - v3.3.16(recommended for heavy users for the time being), 4.0.4 or higher.
Suggested Version - 1.3.15 or higher.
Suggested Version - v2.93 or higher.
Daemon is the most lightweight form that you can get from
µtorrent - v2.2.1 (build 25302) and v2.0.4 (build 22967) used to be the best bt-client for Windows. Now µtorrent 3.5.3 or higher for Windows and µtorrent 1.8.7 For Mac OSX (build 43796) or higher is considered safe. A word of caution: µtorrent has become an adware.
Suggested Version - v1.4
NOTE

Old µtorrent(1.x-2.x) allowed: HDB, BTN, PTP, AHD, GGn, APL, MAM, JPS, BakaBT

Tixati is not allowed on almost every private trackers as one can modify data in it. Specially the data which clients send to the tracker. the data includes, client name, upload and downloaded data etc. In other words, its called spoofing/cheating. When asked, developer refused to remove these features. Hence its not allowed anywhere. More explained
