Does someones K/D or wins give more validity to their argument?
My opinion is the spoiler to avoid skewing the results.
[spoiler]I see all over these forums people mentioning their K/D like it makes their argument more valid. I think a good argument should stand on it's own regardless of who is giving it. I just want to get the Communities opinion on this. It's my hope that most people judge an argument by its reasoning not by the stats of the person making it. [/spoiler]

Edited by Jeh : 8/30/2014 3:04:33 PMKills = contribution to the team Deaths = contribution to enemy team An effective player minimizes their contribution to the enemy and maximizes contribution to their own. Thus: low deaths + high kill count Resulting in what we refer to as a high K/D ratio If you K/D is bad, that does NOT by any means make you a "team player". A bad K/D is detracting from your team, and only helps the enemy's score. With matchmaking systems as refined as they are (especially with AAA title) the argument that a high K/D is only the result of playing inept competition is completely illogical. Even if a camper (who sucks) manages to get 20 kills and 2 deaths, while an aggressive player rushes in and goes 30-35. The camper (regardless of his skill) better contributed to the teams win. Yes this is all based on the classic slayer/death match (kill based) game-types, as they are by FAR the most played in the FPS genre. [spoiler]This was mostly in response to all the arguments I see on this thread [/spoiler]
