I get where you’re coming from but generally it’s very accurate. And it’s more than likely you aren’t as far ahead of your overall kd as you think you are lol. I raised my kd from a .9 to a 1.5 over the course of a couple years. It changes as you get better. But I will never be able to hit a 1.6/7 not only cuz I haven’t played in years to any degree of seriousness. But yeah, some of it is irreversible.
Fact remains you’re probably still not as improved as you’d like to be.
And sbmm is a joke, I don’t think there’s a system for how it works, they just claim it does. But anyone with a brain uses destiny tracker or trials report to determine skill. Mostly bc at a point I was able to have a 3.7 seasonal with a 1.4 kd. The kad is farmable while the overall k.d is not as easily farmable making it a better determination of skill.

I'm definitely not a high level player nor do I have the time or commitment to the game to be (being a mum and working is more important) but I'm actually quite happy with how I do now and how I've progressed the last year! and I safely know that my over all doesnt reflect how I play now. I usually stay away from the debates on here because I know how people will treat my opinion like they do everybody else in my position and i won't give them the satisfaction of patting themselves on the back for flexing their KD 😂. I just feel bad for the people who like myself have improved but are instantly shot down because of their KD. It's kind of pathetic that people with higher KDs take away others right to an opinion based on that alone. You hear alot of "get good" but when players do, it's not enough! You said you built yours up over the years and I don't think before you did, your opinion was any less valid than it is now. You practiced and played more and got better but whilst building that KD back up, you was better than It and I think people need to remember that whilst they "got good", over all doesnt reflect how they play NOW. It's just my two bits. long and short of it, I just think everybody who plays is entitled to an opinion despite their KDs. We all play it and we all play different areas due to the skill difference, nobody's opinion is invalid. ANYWAY! I only wanted to know what SBMM was based on and I'm still none the wiser😂

I looked up your seasonal stats, from 16-now your kd is like a 1.2 which is a clear tier above your overall. I also found out I’m still top 1% in pvp kills after 2 years which warms my heart.

Thank you for checking! It's nice to know it's not completely in my head 😂 And that's amazing! The fact you worked your way up to there must make it more satisfying! Well done 😁 My memory is pretty bad but hopefully I'll recognise your name if we do ever cross paths! Goodnight!

Same to you!

My issue is with over 8,500 pvp games, I’d say other than myself I’ve come across maybe 4-5 other people who play noticeably better than the stats say. So it is a LOT less common than you might think as someone who actually happens to fall into the category. Which is why I also understand people who care a ton about stats. We are outliers in the grand scheme of pvp. Wel I’m not anymore, but lol.

I wish I could tell you how sbmm works, but in my own experience it literally just doesn’t work😭, I had a game last night where we steamrolled and made one poor titan stay to avoid a penalty and he ended up with a .3 and a game earlier where I matched a team of 4 2.3+s. So I would say there’s a basis. But honestly I have experienced little to no difference in my own gameplay.

I agree with your sentiment and also know that there are 100% people who’s stats don’t give them enough credit. It’s an interesting place for me because at a point I was definitely outplaying my kd honestly by a substantial amount, id actually get messages questioning my stats because it was so different. but now that I’ve quit playing for so long my stat tracked kd is in line with my skill. So it ended up balancing out ina weird way. But I do have to disagree to an extent, my opinion as a .9 was definitely more flawed from an overall perspective as it is now. But as long as you enjoy your own time in pvp it really doesn’t matter what anyone thinks about your stats.

Thank you for being so respectful, I think I just get that maternal instinct kick in for others and maybe a bit defensive too so thank you for speaking to me like an actual human and not just a KD 😂 proving it is actually possible on here! I agree that the opinion could be flawed BUT as someone (and I mean you this time!) That has played both ends of high and low, I'd respect your opinion more than someone who has always been "top tier". You have broader view. And although it could be flawed back then, you still played so you was still entitled to one without being put down. I honestly just play for fun (if you can believe that still happens in PvP!) But id be a liar if I said I didn't lose my temper sometimes as some matches are brutal! I don't think I'll ever get an answer to my question as honestly, nobody seems to know! I won't bore you with a longer reply! But thank you again! And good luck with the game! And if you see me in a match...show mercy 😂

I’ll have to bring out the old muscle memory if I see you in game🤣. Best of luck.
