What Does KR Mean?

KR means "Kill Ratio (Gaming Term)" and "Kind Regards."

Kill Ratio

The abbreviation KR is used in gaming to illustrate how many enemies a player kills before being killed. The "Kill Ratio" is expressed in a format, such as 2/1 or 2:1.

In many games, the KR is a valid indicator of a player's skills. However, in some team games, an individual's focus on KR can often be detrimental to team play.

"Kill Ratio" is also the title of a 2016 Hollywood film, starring Tom Hopper, as a CIA agent operating in Europe.
