Having a negative kd means you die more than you kill. Having a positive kd means you kill more than you die. But that doesn't mean someone with a negative kd isn't as skilled as someone with a positive. And it also doesn't mean someone with a positive kd is more skilled as someone with a negative.

So if what you say is true why does my win % crush yours? This just seems like you want to make an excuse of why you aren't that good at pvp. Instead of doing that get better.

Lmao. Do you consider yourself an "objective player" because you have a shit kd? You go for the win instead of kills? Then explain your 39% win percentage.... Lel. Even if dtr changed their stats, you'd still look like a scrub...

Your "truth" doesn't make a lot of sense. Lets use Rift as an example. Let’s say I go in and have a stat line of 30 kills and 10 deaths (that’s a high KD) and don’t pick up the spark 1 time. Your message is implying that I’m not helping the team. When in reality I’m providing more help to the team then the person that’s holding the spark with the highest score. Doesn’t make any sense does it? Well, let me ask you this. Do you honestly think my spark runner is going to grab the spark if I’m spending more time grabbing it then slaying everything on the other team? Jamming into the spark to just die to a team shot doesn’t help anything. You need people who will get the angles and provide cover fire. Those people are allowing that player with the 10K score to get the spark in the first place. You have to understand you need people who slay, cap zones, and anchor. Sure. You might have those players that have 10 kills and 5 deaths not trying to cap zones who are actively trying to stay away from B. But are they your anchor? Ensuring the enemy doesn’t spawn behind you? Is your team hilariously outmatched? Because smashing your head into B repeatedly isn’t helping the team if you just die from a team shot and are not capable of actually capping anything. Maybe he is waiting for his teammates before pushing while everyone else is trying to solo cap without paying attention to the other 5 players on his/her team. There have actually been matches where my team has camped 1 zone and still won. Mainly because B is too hard to cap and we can take advantage of the better spawn and out-slay the other team. Don’t just assume people only care about KD in a match. Each match has different objectives and people play to their strengths based on how the match is progressing. There was actually a Rift match recently where my team got dismantled. But somehow I had a stat line of 25-14? (I might have only died 12 times) and everyone else on my team had a KD under 1 with a high of 13 kills. Are you trying to say I’m not helping my team and only care about my KD? I was the only player capable of getting out of our spawn let alone grab the spark.

Except k/d relies solely on you. Win/loss relies on your teammates, witch 9/10 times suck

At the very LEAST a 1.0 does... If you can't kill someone every time you do it just means your making mistake after mistake...

You wouldn't cap zones if someone on your team wasn't slaying and letting you live long enough to do it. Capping zones doesn't give you map control or shut down the other teams heavy and supers. You also don't need to cap a zone to win so... Kills are more important.

What about trials

Sunsinger has exactly a 1.0 k/d, yet the past couple weeks, we've seen the majority of the nerfs calls for them. So my point is, if k/d is so important, why would the subclass with precisely a 1.0 k/d get called out for needing a nerf? Wouldn't it make sense to nerf the class with a better k/d? The answer in my opinion is maybe k/d isn't as important as it seems and the poster is correct.
