I wouldn't call it irrelevant. If you ignore the match totals, and just worry more so about how many each of us kills the other. Just to prove a point. The problem I'm having with your argument, is you are focusing solely on my KD. When the point at hand was me winning shootouts against TLW. I play primarily control, which is an objective based game type. Capturing and holding bases is just as important as getting the kills, and in my mind dying to capture the base, so that in the long run your team gets more points for each kill is worth it.
