What do you guys prefer:- Having a game with a really high kill count and high damage, but not taking home the win- Winning a game, but with maybe 0 - 2 kills- Winning a game with high damage (over 1K) and maybe 3 - 4 kills?

If you don't win, what's the point of kills? Like you are just one of a few dozen of people who got killed and didn't make it to the end, no matter how good you are at killing, and you probably got outplayed by someone with less kills because they are more clever.Also I feel like 80% of the kills people get in this game are from third partying others, so if course you are going to get kills fighting someone who doesn't have full health and shields. Then there is kill stealing from your own squadmates etc.So while there are definitely players out there who are good at getting constant high number of kills, I just don't think they matter in BR games. If you are all about kills, there are games that are all about getting kills, why not just play those?In BR, win the game first, then see how many kills and damage you have.

Win over kills, always.High kill loss always feels terrible. A win always feels great.How great the win feels highly depends on the path it took to get there and number of kills is really not even among major factors.Run with no gun for 5 minutes, escape 4 confrontations, finally kill some1 with a mozambique for his basic loot, run from the zone frantically and use all meds for it just to run into a fresh drop with a mastiff, get ambushed instantly and survive, devise a masterplan to 3rd party the last teams and succeed - that would be a one epic win (with just 2 kills total).Similarly, a 15 kill win could also be epic, or it could be a major meh too.Doesn't mean I won't go chasing kills, if I'm certain I have massive advantage XD. I'm still not a fan of taking fights that I think are not increasing my chance to win.

Wins over kills, every time.Even if you have a good game with 8 kills and good damage, it still stings when you get eliminated. But satisfaction is always gained from a win.

Level of adrenaline and enjoyment goes as follows:1) Playing with a squad that makes strategical maneuvers above all.2) Top 3 with decent kill count.3) Champion status with squad that takes minimal damage (no matter the kill count).4) Top 5 solo with the final stages of the ring. Intense!5) High kill count right out the gate before death in early stages of match.Least favorite match:1) No weapons or decent armor for the first few minutes before inevitable early death.2) Looting half the match with subpar weapons, attachments, and armor while dying before making the top 10.

What's the point?High kills means nothing to me. Kinda like playing Domination but not playing the objective. If kills alone are peoples "thing" I don't get why they play a BR. TDMs and FFA are the way to go, but then you come against other players who are also there just to kill, so it becomes harder.Easier to use a different game mode where players are doing different things so it can be exploited for stats.

On worlds edge i'm normally playing sniper/recon in my premade.
I tend to get the least kills but by far the highest damage due to the sheer amount of suppression fire i put down.
So yeah....for me it's wins not kills. 😛

Kills don't mean anything if one can't win. Kinda hard ranking up when L's are around every corner. But try and explain that to the potatoes.

High kills and damage, Caustic has a quip about this "I relish the kill, and not the prize"

@Wingmannedbro That would be like LeBron bragging about how many 3's he put in but no championships. Or Brady talking about all the touchdowns he threw but with no rings to show for it. I hate sports but that's my comparison of how it sounds. I could see the player trackers now, Kills: 5,800 / Season wins:12. Hahahaha

I would go for the 50/50 option: 4, 5 kills and pretty high damage, followed by a win!

I care more about getting the phat badges for my banner than a soon to be redundant wins tracker for S3.
Besides, my S3 wins on main is already at 15 or 16 or something. Killing a lot generally also means winning a lot.
