You could set a custom score amount and subtract 1 from it every time someone makes a kill. Then show the custom score on leaderboard.

Read the description of the conditions and actions (in the help file). It will tell you most of what you need to know.

To add to this topic... a very quick question that I'm too lazy to test myself (getting others to test with me).

Leadership Board... does it display for ALL players, or only selected players?
Like show kills for one player, minerals accumulated for another, etc?

Would making a map where each player can see current stats (change by each player seperately activating their own setting) : Kills/Money/Buildings (seperate leaderboards), etc... be possible?

By default leaderboard is set to show information about all players to all players. You cannot change that, but you can remove computers if there are any.

No you cant do that, it would change the display for everyone.

Why would you want to substract anyways? Do you mean like, if someone does something they get -1 to their score? BEcause what chuiu_os said was that for each kill they get -1 score.

Custom score. Then use a kills to cash counter to only subtract custom score.
