.94 kd and top 47%??

How is it that on destiny tracker I have a .94 kd and am top 47% in kds? Maybe I don't understand the the math. If have a solid 1.0 than wouldn't I be top 50%. The only thing I can think of is people committing suicide, but that is a LOT of suicides if that's the case. Any thoughts?

    This is because the average kd of Destiny is not 1.0 it is actually closer to 0.95 The reason is because not every death relates to someone getting a kill, by result of suicide deaths Whenever a player falls off the map, rockets themselves or grenades themselves, that player’s kd lowers but no ones Kd increases A lot of people play this game and every single suicide death helps lower the average kd Therefore over time the average kd strays further below 1.0 due to there being more total deaths than kills

    • Maybe players leaving matches skews the numbers too?
