Get the strat paddy mug.A player who looks at his stats and tries to make them better instead of trying to be a team player and doing what he needs to do for a win. Like in basketball, when a good rebounder is wide open in the paint and has the ball so he just tosses the ball at the rim for a few misses and rebounds it to make the stat sheet look better.

Get the Stat Padder mug.Related Words
Inflating one's individual score or statistics in a video game without productive contribution to gameplay. Usually refers to a style of play that neglects all other activities except those yielding easy points to personal score.
In games requiring teamwork, the "padder's" contribution to the team effort and their team's capabilities usually suffer as a result.
One probable origin of the expression is the video game Battlefield 2, where various, originally supportive activities could be abused to gain individual score without actually contributing to gameplay. In Battlefield: Bad Company 2 the tradition continued, as reviving dying players repeatedly with the defibrillator "pads" yielded relatively high personal score, but in most instances contributed little to the team effort, as the medic would essentially abandon all other activity, sometimes even being counterproductive by preventing teammates from playing freely.

Get the stat padding mug.Also known as "point farming", stat padding is most frequently used in reference to the online game Battlefield 2. Stat padding is the act of recieving undeserved points due to abnormal and unhelpful gameplay.
One of the most common occurrences is when 2 support players go out to the middle of nowhere and alternate tossing a grenade, then resupplying the other, each time getting 1 resupply point.
The extreme of stat padding is when a player coordinates with one or more players on the opposite team to get an enormous amount of kills. For example, a USMC player hides away with 2 MEC medics. The US player will kill one of the medics, then the other will revive him, earning the US player 2 points for a kill, and the MEC player 1 point for a revive, all undeserved. This process can be repeated indefinitely, as the kill does not reduce the ticket count of the other team. This is how some players have best round scores of 800+.
Some players consider skill concentration to be stat padding, but this is simply not true. Running around wielding only a pistol in order to get a pistol badge is NOT stat padding.
On a side note, stat padding violates the EA Ranked EULA. Thousands of players have already had their accounts reset due to excessive stat padding.
