use loops to go through the teams, and for each team use more loops to go through the players and their ko stats, have variables with biggest ko and the player, something along the lines of this


local bigKO = 0
local bigPlyr = nil
for n,v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren())
local KO = PATHTOSTAT
if KO > bigKO then
bigKO = KO
bigPlyr = v
end
end

print("Person with most epic kills is "..bigPlyr.Name..". Yeah he is so epic")

Is it like this

admin = "LordGando"

function chatted (admin, msg)
if msg == "mvp/" then
local bigKO = 0
local bigPlyr = nil
for n,v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren())
local KO = PATHTOSTAT
if KO > bigKO then
bigKO = KO
bigPlyr = v
then print("Person with most epic kills is "..bigPlyr.Name..". Yeah he is so epic")
end
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(pl)
pl.Chatted:connect(function(m)
chatted(pl,m)
end)
end)

Is that the right way

Nope :3

first i made teh typo
change loop to this
for n,v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do

now you have to change where it says PATHTOSTAT to get to the ko stat, i think it will be in the player or maybe the teams or something like that I forget. Maybe something like this?

local KO = v.Kills.Value

i have no idea never needed to use leaderboard stats

To be honest, I don't know. I'm using owens leaderboard. I still didn't make my own.

-Script-

stands = {}
CTF_mode = false


function onHumanoidDied(humanoid, player)
local stats = player:findFirstChild("leaderstats")
if stats ~= nil then
local deaths = stats:findFirstChild("Wipeouts")
deaths.Value = deaths.Value + 1
if deaths.Value>10 then
player.TeamColor=BrickColor.new("White")
end

-- do short dance to try and find the killer

local killer = getKillerOfHumanoidIfStillInGame(humanoid)

handleKillCount(humanoid, player)
end
end

function onPlayerRespawn(property, player)
-- need to connect to new humanoid

if property == "Character" and player.Character ~= nil then
local humanoid = player.Character.Humanoid
local p = player
local h = humanoid
humanoid.Died:connect(function() onHumanoidDied(h, p) end )
end
end

function getKillerOfHumanoidIfStillInGame(humanoid)
-- returns the player object that killed this humanoid
-- returns nil if the killer is no longer in the game

-- check for kill tag on humanoid - may be more than one - todo: deal with this
local tag = humanoid:findFirstChild("creator")

-- find player with name on tag
if tag ~= nil then

local killer = tag.Value
if killer.Parent ~= nil then -- killer still in game
return killer
end
end

return nil
end

function handleKillCount(humanoid, player)
local killer = getKillerOfHumanoidIfStillInGame(humanoid)
if killer ~= nil then
local stats = killer:findFirstChild("leaderstats")
if stats ~= nil then
local kills = stats:findFirstChild("KOs")
if killer ~= player then
kills.Value = kills.Value + 1

else
kills.Value = kills.Value - 1

end
end
end
end

for n,v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
local KO = v.leaderstats.KOs.Value
if KO > bigKO then
bigKO = KO
bigPlyr = v
print("Person with most epic kills is "..bigPlyr.Name..". Yeah he is so epic")

function chatted (player, msg)
if msg == "mvp/" then
local bigKO = 0
local bigPlyr = nil
for n,v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
local KO = v.leaderstats.KOs.Value
if KO > bigKO then
bigKO = KO
bigPlyr = v
local msg = Instance.new("Message",workspace)
msg.Txt = "Person with most epic kills is "..bigPlyr.Name..". Yeah he is so epic"
wait(5)
msg:Destroy()
end
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(pl)
pl.Chatted:connect(function(m)
