PvP Class Rankings

So I am really tired of all of these "<class> is OP" topics and I decided to do something about it. This is something Bungie should be doing and addressing, but they clearly have not so I wanted to see what would happen. I pulled the top 100 players for each class (Titan, Warlock, Hunter) that have played at least 200 games in the crucible and looked at their KTD ratio. The numbers are staggering. [u]Class KTD[/u] Hunter 3.90 Warlock 3.24 Titan 3.14 Now remember, this is the top of every class, and only players that have a significant amount of time played in Crucible. The top 100 for each class and played at LEAST 200 games. The numbers pretty much speak for themselves. And before anyone complains that I used KTD ratio, remember that all game types in Destiny are kill based, even control. Because of unimaginative PvP design, KTD really is the most important metric. Kills gain you points, deaths gain the other team points. Always. Discuss amongst yourselves. Edit: I think I'm done with this thread. I had good intentions to help inform with actual data but people just suck. Feel free to keep talking is you wish, but every single person that has complained is a Hunter main. Go figure. There really isn't a point anymore. We know Hunter's are more powerful in PvP than the other classes. It's just fact at this point and we have to live with it. Not a big deal. Happy Holidays! 2nd Edit: I got pulled back in. People just don't get it. I'm out. Happy Holidays!

    I'm just guessing, but I don't think the differences are statistically significant. Where did you get your data from? I could probably run a few stats analyses when I get back to school. Also, I bet Bungie did run these numbers and probably found what I expect to find. I think another way to look at the numbers would be to compare different classes that those same players use. For example, does Titan #36 have a similar KD with his alternate character? Do Hunters and Warlocks play the same amount of hours? What else could make a difference? Lol sorry for being such a nerd
