Epic Games' Fortnite has grown to become one of the most popular free-to-play battle royale games in the world. Millions of people worldwide play the online multiplayer game, including Esports players and prominent streamers. And if you play Fortnite on a daily basis, you've probably heard gamers brag about their overall K/D ratio in the game. So, let us explain what it implies and how you can compare your K/D ratio to that of your peers.

What is K/D in Fortnite?

KD, or kill-to-death ratio, is a prominent statistic in competitive multiplayer games. It displays how frequently a player is eliminated in comparison to how many times they have eliminated someone. This is especially true in Fortnite, where having an above-average KD might indicate excellent skill, yet having a below-average KD may indicate that you need to work on your game if you want to be a more competent player.

Most professional players and streamers have a high K/D ratio, which indicates they eliminate a large number of people before going down themselves.

How to check your K/D in Fortnite?

Checking your stats in the game is the simplest approach to learn about your K/D in Fortnite. All you have to do is launch Fortnite and log in. Then, simply navigate to the "Career" page and select it. Once in the Career tab, go to the profile tab and select the various modes to see how they fare versus other players.

You may also go to fortnitetracker.com and check your K/D ratio there. Simply go to the website and input your Fortnite gamertag in the search bar to see your overall K/D ratio as well as mode-specific K/D ratios in the game.

FAQs

Q. How does Fortnite K/D work?

A. KD, or kill to death ratio is derived by dividing the number of players killed by the number of times killed, which is rarely a full number and can be negative. For example, if you have a K/D of 1, it indicates that every time you get a kill, you also die once.
