On the list (list of players in lobby) it would be better if a players k/d/a was listed. Gives a fuller understanding on the type of player they are and also encourages more team play rather than ksing cause assists matter in a team game. Id like to see k/d/a anywhere where there is currently just k/d.

Got a BS in molecular biology and a minor in chemistry. Pretty sure i know about ratios. Your point is invalid even if someone doesnt understand ratios. the ratio doesnt include assists. Id like to see assists when Im looking at the game lobby screen from the games list. It would help get a fuller idea of the player. Dota is a team game. Kills arent everything.

What will you compare "Assists" to?

Since your degree aint helping you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratio

Note, kills, deaths, and assists are listed already on your stats profile page.

Dota 2 uses kda on the stats page(dotabuff etc). Since u seemingly like all the changes in dota, i see no reason to deny this request lol.

I dont like all changes. But, overall, it is better. Funny you bring about the map, learn to adapt and move on.

Dota2 uses (k+a)/d. So, its more of a kill and assist to death ratio.

If @uakf.b wants to add it.

Not my point nabo. My point was I would like to see k/d/a on the games screen when Im looking at who Im playing with and against. I know you can go into each individual and see this but Id like for it to be on the page showing all players. Right now that page just has the k/d. Thanks in advance uakf.b.

@jiminy_cricket

When you !sd !ls someone? Already shows each individually.

Or, are you asking that stats page shows kill avg per game, death avg per game, assist avg per game?

Ok, so you want assist to also be listed in addition to the kills and deaths listed already.

Yeah! So you can get the full idea of the player K/D/A or like you guys said the dota2 ratio.

I tried adding a few days ago and the database started crashing, not sure why (no reason it should just crash like that). I think I'm going to have to convert the table to InnoDB before this is possible (or maybe it just needs repair operation).

@uakf.b any update? I believe it will enable us to more conveniently see a bigger picture of a player. Some players with low k/d play great support and are often underestimated by judging based solely on kdr.

Would love to see this being implemented aswell. Much better visualization of a players playstyle.
