Reasons KD doesn't matter:
1. Bad days... everyone has them. Some more than others.
2. If my friends want to play and they suck, I won't stop them. Please, go ahead and drop my KD by 2 points.
3. Crap-design quests (shindig in the crucible. Inb4 all the year 1 scrubs who grinded TLW in Y1 say "that quest literally took me 3 games hahaha!" No one cares, that gun is crap and the quest is shit).
4. not using OP weapons and/or subclasses (AKA- "crucible easy mode"- sunbreaker, pulse rifle, shotgun, prox. detonate rocket)
5. People who take some time to get used to PVP or coming back from a break, the first few games come out below 0.5 and that kills it for them.
Comment your own, I'll edit them in the post if i like them :D
P.S.
The thing that, in my opinion, defines a good player is SPM (Score Per Minute), and in a way grim score.

Not matter what you say or try to justify KD numbers, in the end it does matter. Are there cases that players with high KDs suck? YES. Are there cases players with low KDs play good? YES. But that's not the whole truth. The truth is that the majority of the time people's KDs are a signal of how consistent you are whether you're soloing crucible or playing with a team. TIME itself it's also involved. Many people have played a long time so if they have a bad day their KDs wouldn't drop drastically since their game time is high as hell. KD is an average of your skill. If you have a 1.2 KD and go against a 2.0 KD player, 8/10 times you'll lose against that player. That doesn't mean you can't never beat that player, it just means he is more consistent and more skillful than you. Is there anything wrong about that? NO! It's just a video game! The fact is players with high KDs didn't get up there just cause or by luck, they got that KD for a good reason...they're skillful. Stop trying to justify low KDs. In the end it's a video game and whether we have a high or low KDs shouldn't matter. Get over it, there are better players than you all the time...it's a fact, the majority of them will have high KDs guaranteed!
