Beorn, I see your point. I myself have games where i'm 40-10 or 20-30. There's a swing. My point is that OVERALL, i.e. ON AVERAGE, non-noob players will have a K:D above some threshold. It doesn't have to be 1:1, perhaps just 1:2. My point is that the worst noobs feed excessively and so their ratios are almost always really bad. I've never met a single good support player with consistently shit K:D. If you know of one, please link their stats page from the league.
Let's look at 4 players on the spectrum from super noob to pro: GEN_Schwarzkopf has the worst K:D of any regular non-noob player I know. His play style is usually a form of support (hunter) and while he's not a great player, he's certainly not someone we would want kicked. His overall K:D is 14:19, or ~73%. Killsalot, on the other hand, is the prime example of the type of person we want kicked. His ELO is 1300 something and he consistently ruins the games he plays in. His average K:D is about 6:19, or ~30%. My stats are 23:17, or ~135%. Ofenkartoffe1 is currently ranked #2 overall, with almost 3:1 game win ratio and a K:D of 41:17, or ~230%
Granted, these stats are their overall averages - last 20 games isn't currently tracked. But I think you see my point... I think the right threshold is somewhere around 1:2 ~50%. It can be tweaked with trial and error.

Also remember that in my proposal, improving your K:D of your last 20 games in qualify will allow you to "graduate" into ranked. If you perform poorly in ranked, you will be demoted back to qualify, and so on and so forth.
