Average deaths for a roamer in a season?

I averaged roughly 18.5 deaths last season on roamer and wondering what sort of benchmark is good for roamers?

although I understand this is kind of hard to give a good answer to as there are a lot of variables, I was just wondering what a good number to aim for? (although I imagine as little as possible while still being useful is probably correct?)

If you aren't dyin' you aren't tryin'

There are so many things that contribute to deaths in a game it's not really helpful to look into them for example this little abstraction.

Roamer goes positive 20/10.

Was he just fragging super hard? Possibly.
Was he baiting the absolute hell out of his team and coming in and securing 2 garbage frags after his whole team is dead?

It's impossible to tell just from K/d.

The only time I'd worry about it is if you're just feeling useless and consistently turning in scorelines of 1/16 or you're *constantly* respawning when your team is trying to push.

Yeah that makes sense. I guess I'm mostly just a little curious though.

But its probably better to obsess over demos and practice than statlines anyway.

The only stat that matters is round wins.

Hey guys I'm an open demo and I read that good players will do over 300 dpm so I've been peeking every choke to spam 20 dmg stickies, but I keep dying????

Can a esea INVITE player pls give me tips on how to hit more 20 dmg stickies without dying??

Edit:
I did the math and I need to do 9k dmg to do 300 dpm in 30 mins but even if I spam 20 dmg stickies every 6 seconds (I need to get arrowed because I keep getting hit by pipes :/) it only adds up to 6k??? Where do i get 3k more damage??

Err... spam? Direct pipes? Traps? Demo isn't all about hitting 20 dmg stickies you know. Get a decent positioning and you won't be dying like a potato bag.

It all depends on your playstyle, a roamer who is constantly jumping in trying to create space will die more often than a roamer thats just watching the flank. Either style is good, just make sure your team knows what youre gonna do.

A good guideline would be to see that your K/D is around 0.8 - 1.
Any death should be for a reason (forcing uber, trading with a scout etc.)

the whole point of playing roamer is u get to pull out the 'roamer stats dont matter' line when somebody tries to blame u for a loss

obviously its not that extreme but if u looking at ur numbers instead of ur demos when ur roaming u probably arent focusing on the right things

deaths dont matter
consistant deaths at non-opportune times means you have problems

basically listen to marxist, dd and mason

just because you died and didnt get a frag doesnt mean the play you made was bad. just means your logs look bad :)
