Imo, kd and combat rating, or any metric, is just a starting point. To me, it's just a hint at if the player is one that you would like to play with (better stats equal better chance that he or she will be reliable in watching a flank, can carry his or her own weight, win gun fights, etc etc), but the overall stats may be misleading (covers long spans of time which may not accurately portray a player's current "skill"). So a better stat that I look at are the monthly ones (there's one for kd and wl on dtracker, idk if there's one for spg or cr). Even still, it's generally better to actually play with the person and formulate ur opinion based on his actions rather than solely relyibg on stats. Additionally, I had a dude on my friends list who was great at the game, but he complains way too much and simply took everythibg way too seriously, so I dont play with him and decided to simply delete him (why keep someone on ur friebds list if their attitude is so negative lol)
