Dude, statistics. It's pretty basic stuff, perhaps, not even college level. Let's take five people, one of whom is really bad in crucible and two who are very good. Have the very good people kill the very bad person many many many many times. The middle folk kill the very bad folk many many many times. and the bad person kill almost no one or no one, and the middle folk kill the really good folk just a few times. Now, I could assign numbers and do the math, but I think you can too and will find, statistically, that the average is higher than 1.0. Again, we would need Bungie's numbers to ascertain where the actual average lies, and to figure out how they come up with an average, e.g. do assists factor in, how are they balanced across crucible modes; there can be myriad data points to consider. Also, be sure what you mean by average as opposed to median, mode, and mean and which pool of guardians are being measured in the numbers. It is an interesting topic. I'd love to see the data.
