What is kp in apex legends?

KP (Kills and Placement) is a scoring system used in Apex Legends Ranked Mode. It reflects a player's overall performance in each ranked match based on the number of kills they get and their final placement. The score is calculated by adding up the number of kills a player gets and multiplying it by their finishing position. This score determines a player's rank and determines their progress towards reaching higher ranks, such as Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Apex Predator. The scoring system encourages players to play strategically, conserve lives, and increase their chances of survival to earn higher scores.
