Which stat is most important in determining skill?
Edit: Combat rating is holding pretty steady as the clear winner of this poll.
I've tried to argue with people that skill is determined by more than KD alone, and that if you're going to judge by KD then they should go by recent kd, instead of overall.
I've argued that win % and combat rating are better indicators, but that didn't seem to go over well either.
Some people say that trials and rumble kd are much better indicators, and they might be for that particular situation, but again I don't think it shows overall skill.
What do guys think? My personal opinion is that these numbers show nothing when taken individually and it's better to look at the big picture.
Edit: alot of people are asking what combat rating is, here is my understanding; Combat rating starts at a base value of 100 for everyone, if you play 'within expectations' it doesn't change much, but if you do better or worse than those expectations it will change alot.
I think it takes the teams average combat rating, and which ever is higher is expected to win. I don't know if it accounts for individual kill/death in the same manner or not.
If a team has a much higher rating than yours and you lose, you don't lose much, but if you win you gain alot. The opposite is also true, if your team is much higher and you win you don't gain much, but if you lose than your rating is dropped alot.
I don't know how much more goes into it, someone else can correct me if I'm wrong.

1 ReplyOnly measure of skill is head to head, best out of ten. The rest are just fun stats to track. The data sets don't allow for anomalous bad or good games, nor does it account for when people are trying and when they are just messing around. The stats are fun, and in some cases accurate, but there are to many variables to get any kind of meaningful prediction.

Other.. Destiny is not exactly a measurement of skill.
-
None of the above, the only way to rate someone is to play with them
-
Whichever of your stats is the highest becomes the most important stat and shows the most skill. #71 warlock/ world for orbs gathered. GOML SON!!!!

The happiness rating on my wife is the most important stat, happily though, she's a gamer and understands.
-
I usually look at trials k/d, everything else could be false information as people usually screw around with load outs to have fun. I don't do that but I know other ppl do
-
Kd and kda, taken with win% gives a general idea of what the players general abilities are.
-
I think my K.D sucks because of the fact that i try to use different weapons all the time

True skill on destinytracker.com is a good way to see. Or just play a game or 2 with them to see if they're legit
-
Play with them to find out

1 ReplyKd doesn't really determine skill. Because it was so easy to abuse the meta and have a consistently high kd
-
1 ReplyRumble k/d. Separates those who play with team and take advantage of solo players and those who go in solo.
-
All of the above. But jk.

2 Repliesgrimoire shows experience more than anything which determines a lot of ur skill overall

I disagree with k/d or wins determining skill because most people do stupid challenges inside of crucible
