K/D

Definition

K/D is the kill-to-death ratio, calculated as Kills ÷ Deaths. It is the dominant performance stat in pure FPS games like Call of Duty, where assists are not the focus. A K/D above 1.0 means more kills than deaths. Pro-level players frequently sustain K/Ds above 1.5 in their main mode.

Example

"My lifetime Warzone K/D is 1.8" — across all matches, the player has earned 1.8 kills per death on average.
