You mean our actual killed? divided by their total losses? or our killed divided by our losses - sorry, not trying to be mean here and I appreciate the effort you put into this but shouldnt it be our total losses divided by their total losses?
No no! KDR is personal to faction. The other faction effects it in only 1 way: How well they kill you(your losses) and how well they die.
It's not really a "KDR" but more of a KLR or Kill/Losses Ratio. So you take the Kills and divide by the number I have listed on the front page(the Losses) and that gets your KDR. Or alternatively, take your LOSSES and multiply by the KDR to determine how many tickets you have ACTUALLY killed. It works both ways.
I think I may be getting what you are saying - basically flag caps can only hurt the kdr of the side being capped - they cant actually add to the KDR of the side capping the flags.
Correct. A flag cap means the faction getting capped suffers all those losses without fighting for them while only increasing their kills by a small margin.
For example, that battle that you only killed 275 or so, but lost 1600. Your KDR is 275/1600 for that specific battle(or roughly 1:5.2 or so), while Chaos suffered 270 losses and killed 275 so they went 275/270 or 1:1.
