Disclaimer: I'm in no way saying that mine is great. Average probably.
The majority of match types are score based. If you have more deaths than kills, the you've essentially fed the other team more points than you earned. Doesn't matter how many kills you had if you go negative.
In short, I'm not saying it has to be all sweaty every match but if you like to actually win....then just considser.
Edit: Just to clarify, I'm referencing match lists that are scored in a cumulative point manner. Also, I'm not commenting on players skill level based on lifetime kd. I'm talking about winning matches and how kd plays into that concept

2 AntwortenElo matters more,I think.

That's why I love zone control.
-
2.7 kd is pretty common for every super sweaty, mine happens to be that as well
-
Kd is more important than elo imo. You can get carried and get a high elo. Or you can stomp solo with a low elo.

Bearbeitet von New_Age_Cap: 5/16/2016 4:48:56 PMThe most problems, i have with the K/D, is just in Rumble. I would love to see, that players get negativ points each time, they die. Notice: I´m just talking about Rumble. I don´t think, that would work in other playlists. Today, i nearly had every time the best K/D, but didn´t won a single game (yeah, i´m bad....). As an example, i upload a game on my Titan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5cEadbBP4g The score is at the end....of course (be careful - the game is in german :P) I think, if you would loose 25 Points, each time, you die, it wouldn´t be that great of a disadvantage... As for other Playlists, i´m looking more on KA/D, because Assists are in other Playlists important. It´s correct, not to try and "feed" the other team. But if you steal the kills from your teammate, it isn´t his/hers fault. They still get the job done....

I somewhat agree. However I don't think your all time kd is a good representation of skill. (Unless it's like super high lol)

1 AntwortenWhen i use the gunsmith crucible weapons my kd goes down from around 1 to around 0.5, so it's definitely not 100% based on skill, and obsessing about kd is just pointless
-
KD can be used to judge skill if it is very high. It's hard to maintain a high kd and be bad. On the other hand, having a low kd doesn't necessarily mean a player lacks skill.

3 AntwortenBearbeitet von InfinityDrags: 5/15/2016 8:49:58 PMPeople shouldn't be judged by their overall K/D, as it is a long term thing (people do get better over time). Aside from that I think you're right. When I play pvp and want to contribute I try to at least score more points than I give to the other team. If I know I can't compete well in a match, I switch to a playstyle which at least doesn't feed the opposing team. Some days though, I just can't focus and it'd be better if I'd just stay out of pvp for that day. Edit: there is an exception in rift though. You can go a whole game without making kills but can contribute greatly by being a skilled runner.

Kd matters just a bit. If you look at mine, which is 2 then you might think thats really good. But its not. If I was playing more rumble and scrimish my kd would be at around 1.3 or even lower. Also kd cant be taken too serious because sometimes we want to test weapons or play with no land beyong like I did yesterday. Just my 2 cent on it.

4 AntwortenI laugh every time I see someone get a KD 0.08... that should be worth a medal in itself XD
-
KD is kinda of skewed. When I want to win I can keep it above 1.5. But sometimes I'm just running bounties and don't care about KD. Iron banner is about the only exception in my case, I always want to win in there.
-
Typically in a control match I go for caps and let my team deal the damage so the only kills I get are during zone captures or defence if it was 1v1 or free for all singular kd matters in a team game its the teams kd that does and regarding matches like control, rift or salvage there are other roles to play.
-
I only care about my KD if someone messages me about how bad I am.

2 AntwortenConsider that assists are 50 points. An (assist+ single-killer-death) life helps the team...the kill was worth 150 and the death worth -100. In theory, of course, says the guy with all-negs across the board.

1 AntwortenSaying kd matters is the same as saying blacklivesmatter or policelivesmatter or other similar shit

K/d matters as a team average...not necessarily as an individual. ......depending on game type. Rift...kills and deaths don't matter as much as clash or control, in control you can still win with more deaths as a team if you control 2 points, so sacrificing yourself so your team can capture or keep a zone can be to your benefit. So....basically.......k/d is a useless stat.
-
I couldn't care less about kd in any game. I'm here to have fun, not impress another dude with my game stats. I am just as likely to go 17 and 5 as 5 and 17. Who cares!

2 AntwortenYour kd is below average

2 AntwortenOnly partially true. You get more points for headshots, grenade kills, revives, assists, etc than regular kills, so you can still make a net contribution and not go positive. Then there's the fact that what really matters is your teams overall number of deaths, not their distribution. Someone 'feeding' the kills to the opposite team might be making it possible for your team to kill them more overall. Finally, the game mode. You can go negative in control but if your team has held 2 or 3 zones for the majority of the game your contribution to the overall score will be much higher than someone who goes positive on the opposing team. Similar sort of thing for rift and salvage although its even more influenced by non kill-based factors in those.

My kd is only 1.04 but 90% of my crucible time is challenges with friends, like hardlight ricochet kills only. That drops it a lot lol
