Let’s see those numbers in a mid-upper tier MMR deathmatch. A decent build, to be sure, but K/D ratios in non-DM modes (where a lot of potatoes tend to play, because they can’t survive in DMs) generally mean nothing.

Wait, I'm gonna need you to translate that for me?

It's the classic "You fight noobs" defense

It’s not a “defense”. K/D ratios in non-DM modes mean very little, because generally the only time you find good, competitive players in non-DM modes (on PS4 NA, at least) is when they’re placed there for their dailies. Most people who play objective games are healers or people in PVE gear who just want to get motifs and avoid actual PVP — which is easy to do when you just have to stand on a flag to get points. Again, if the OP can net those sort of numbers in a decently ranked deathmatch, they might mean something.

There is a lot of talk about MMR in a game where your mmr isn't visible. I'm reminded of Rift when MMR wasn't visible at first, and everyone was complaining about their "high mmr". A few patches later they made it visible to everyone, and a lot of those "high mmr" players were quite average.

Really makes you think.

While it's true that we can't see our actual MMR in ESO, it's certainly possible to get an estimation relative to other players (especially for people with multiple different characters that have wildly differing numbers of matches played). Just as an example, Thogard's Stamblade (and Mag Sorc to a lesser degree) tends to get extremely short queue times, and matches up against people that I (and his Stam Warden) almost never see.
