Despite what some may like to believe, KDR is actually extremely important.

Pretty sure all the top players with high KDR aren't scrubs. They have a good KDR because they are in fact, good players. In skirmish they can kill the opponents on/near the objective to clear it out which = win for the team.

Good slayers = best players and the key to victory in any gamemode.

Now KDR as a stat can lie, somebody can have good KDR but aren't really that good as a slayer. I mean heck, I have a 5.43 KDR yet I only obtained it because I am generally pretty careful in the game and try to die as little as I can. My goal is survival. However some of the true KDR beasts in this game can get into the heat of the battle and slay left and right, and they are the ones that win matches cause they are literally damn good players who can slay and survive at an alarming efficiency.

that's only a good thing for ambush.

Is slaying (while not dying) not important for capturing objectives?

I am not certain, but in 1.5 when you press the cancel button after dying, can you still be picked up? If not that is good, although sucks I can't check out the info screen of who killed me and with what without worrying about getting picked up just to be downed again.

Is slaying (while not dying) not important for capturing objectives? Yeah, apparently he skipped over that part of my post. Slayers keep players dead and off objectives, they are extremely important. One good slayer can take out multiple opponents by themselves and hold that point, freeing up manpower to take and defend other objectives. What's better, 5 low KDR players, not great at slaying, successfully defending a point, dying a lot and losing clones? Or 1 good slayer with 7 KDR successfully defending a point and not dying at all? Even if we are talking clone counts, there has been many wins in PC and skirmish due to clone depletion, and it is a viable tactic. Slayers are the best option for both.
