FAQs

What is a good KDA?

Above 3.0 is good, above 4.0 is excellent. However, this varies by role - supports may have higher KDAs while carries may trade deaths for high-impact plays.

Why include assists in KDA?

Assists recognize contributions to team fights beyond last-hitting. This makes KDA more fair for support players and teamwork-oriented gameplay.

Is KDA the best performance metric?

No, KDA doesn't measure objectives, vision, map control, or clutch plays. It's one metric among many for evaluating performance.
