So we had an interesting match in the Team Arena queue last night. the match went 20-0 and 5 of our kills where not counted.
Here is the leaderboard link to the match:

Here is a short youtube vid of what we saw:

as you can see we racked up 20 kills in a queued match and only got credited with 15... from the video you can clearly see: "Player X was defeated by Player Y" popping up after a kill but the kill count not increasing.
What's going on here?!
Comments
I don't know if someone is aware of how it actually works.
thats seems to be the thing. its like the game decides that kills was such cheese BS im not even counting it.
there is nothing cheese about AtB friend :^)

Hmm I like that if that was towards OP lazy A2B FAW builds. There is our fix, if you use A2B in pvp you can not get a kill credit!!! easy fix
Stop the A2B Fanboys
quoted poster was too lazy to notice that OP wasn't running A2B.
who runs a2b on a dromias anyway? that's so fail.

Recognized the OP problem quite often as well. Annoying in close matches.
This has been going on for a long time. I wish crypticfrost would pop in and say, "issue verified for fixing".
FYI, this should be in the gameplay bugs section, not here.
i think you nailed the problem on the head, those 5 kills where never counted as personal kills. i.e.: Dez and I should have both had 20 kills each at the end of that match but we only got 15 each.
just Xposted this to the bug forums.
Oh i love the short movie, reminds me of those people who cry about the chance that their OP A2B builds may be nerfed
PvP is rather down low on the Dev's "To-Do List" and I think it always has been?
Usually if the match is arranged both team agree the kill was there in the first place even if the game doesn't count it.
gotta be more annoying when you run into cheese teams whatever they are these days and you get 1 kill on them but it doesn't count....I want that kill against that cheese eatin "I wanna win no matter what" player, kick him off his crutches and laugh....
And I don't count A2B as cheese, I've 1v1'd many A2B ships and given them a lesson they'll never forget in "Timing"...

The best is when you see known sci/gankers in-game come to the forums to complain about others being sci/gankers... It wasn't cheese when they were getting kills, but because they died, comments such as 'praise cheesus' are made. lolz
