Subject: The K/D argument.

Cricket Wireless ftl.

You know what I'm talking about. "lulz ur k/d is lower than mine u suck". Of course in most scenarios a player with a 2.0+ k/d will have more skill than one under the 1.0 mark, there are some prominent exceptions to the rule.

Here are some reasons for a high or low k/d that are unrelated to skill. (For me, skill as in aiming ability, fitness, awareness.)

1. Hogging the vehicles. A semi-competent player in the banshee/tank is going to do better than a semi-competent player strolling around with his DMR.

2. Power weapon hogging. This might explain my 1.75 k/d. By using that sniper all the time with active camo/jetpack one can easily rack up the kills with only a tiny bit of patience.

3. Teammates. That guy who just jumped in front of your wraith turret. Or that guy who melees you every few seconds when you have the sniper rifle. These guys will ruin your game and prevent you from getting kills throughout the match.

4. Yet again, teammates. Usually no matter how good you are, you aren't going to be able to carry your team of randoms up against a coordinated team in a party.

5. Playlist. Grifball as opposed to BTB. Ya dig?

6. Connection. While normally not a problem in this high speed world, some of us still have to deal with the constant lag and frustrations of lame wireless connections. *shakes fist at sky and cries*

7. LOLOL BLOOM AND ARMOR LOCK. Not really though.

I might be missing some things but these examples are good enough reasons to not judge others solely based on a quick glance at their k/d.

TL;DR Read the entire thing you bum. Not like you have better things to do.

Good K/d + w/l makes you good

bad k/d and w/l makes you bad

MLG and Arena stats are another story

Herroh. U have reached teh BOOGIE LAND

To tell you the truth, people with higher kd's usually play with a party. The reason my KD is so low is because I always get paired with noobs and quitters.

Bad players will get bad stats.
Average players get average stats.
Good players get good stats.


Bad players will hardly ever find a good pt.
Average players will get average parties.
Good players will get good parties.



See where I'm going at?

This sounds like a list of excuses.

lol k/d, it's really not that important in derp reach.

I have only a grand total of like 5 kills using a vehicle in halo Reach, Never played lolgriffball except 1 time, don't have many sniper kills, and the playlists I primarily play is Classic, Team Slayer, and Squad. I do not have a team. 85% of my games I play alone using no mic or team communication.

I don't think I fit that list very much but this game is so easy it's hard to go lower than a 2.0 k/d unless you deliberately died a ton on purpose.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Bro, it's about how you wrap the package. Your K/D may not get you women but your mongoose skills would. So find a way to make sure women know of your mongoose power and they will be all yours.

Looks like the reach forum hasn't changed since last time i checked in....kids still hanging on to this dead repetitive game and posting the same dead threads over and over on a dead forum on a dead company's website

  • 11.21.2011 6:50 PM PDT

if your k/d is above a certain mark (depending on what you play), lets say 2.0, you're bad because you boost. its so ignorant how people think they can refer to their boosted/farmed k/d for proof of skill. (hogging vehicles in BTB, holding objective in MLG/BTB, etc.)

i betray in living dead, kill myself in elite slayer, but still better than BTB pros.
