[quote]The math itself is fine except there isn't a death for every kill or the term killing spree wouldn't exist.... Oh nvm it clicked in my head he meant if you have a 1.0 that means including suicides that we all have you are above average. I got stuck on the kill for every death and didn't understand where he was going[/quote] There is a death for every kill though. Killing spree means that you get 5 kills without dying, but 5 people had to die in order for you to get that killing spree. I'm talking about globally, not individually, if that helps clear it up

What's the point of a global kd... thats like saying for every homeless person there is a rich man so poverty doesn't exist

That's a false equivalency if I've ever seen one. My statement is that for every kill in destiny, there is a death, therefore a global average of 1.0 kd, anyone being above 1.0 is above this average, that's my only point.

The kd of all guardians averaged then being above that would be being above average. Making up an irrelevant global 1.0 means nothing. Just because when I kill you you die doesn't make it a pertinent statistic. Average the entire databases kd then you have a relevant statistic.

I would love to see the actual average kd of all players figured in that manner, but I would venture to guess it would still be slightly below 1. You can't have a high kd player without those deaths lowering someone else's kd
