Executes Shouldn't Hurt Your KDA

Even when I make a nice escape into an enemy turret for a clutch execute, it feels a little bad that it makes it seem like I'm no different than a guy who suicided into 5 people after 10 pings. It also gives ammunition to ragers.

No. Because regardless of if your death directly gave the enemy team gold, it still gave them the advantage. Any time that the enemy team has more players alive than your team, they have an advantage (Except when your own team is uber fed). It gives them the opportunity to pressure or even take objectives, such as tower or baron.

If you died, the fact of the matter is that you put yourself in a bad enough situation where you couldn't make it out alive, and now your team is at a disadvantage. There are literally no circumstances where it is better for you to be dead than alive. You made a mistake. They absolutely should count towards your KDA.

Yea it should. If you're being executed that means you did something wrong.

But...you died. Whether it was to a champion or to a minion you made the mistake.

Kda means nothing though.

It mostly feels bad because it affects your mastery score. The difference between an S and an A is you dying let's say. But let's say that death was you leading the enemy 5 on a wild goose chase while your team secured Baron, and the only way out was to dive into the enemy Nexus. That takes a lot of skill! Why are you being punished?

Honestly, in the early game, being executed is faster than recalling.

Executing is -generally- skill expression. It's also stupidity. But, stupidity that does not give the enemy team gold, which is what a death is. I don't think this can be coded easily so I don't mind if it doesn't happen. But it is a very good idea that can only benefit the game. It would negatively affect nobody so I'm not sure why anyone would be against this

Kda doesnt really justify anything.
