What is the definition of an "objective kill"?
At the end of a match, the game lists off a number of statistics for my performance, including "eliminations" and "objective kills." The second number is usually (always?) smaller than the first.
Based on the in-game scoring notifications, an elimination happens when you do damage to a player who then dies, even if you did very little damage or did not perform the killing blow yourself. But what is an objective kill?
I imagine they are related to "objective time." Objective kills probably means something like "the number of players you killed who were contesting the objective," but I'm curious about the precise rule.

From personal experience, you get Objective Kills when getting an elimination while standing on/next to the objective as well as if you help eliminate someone on the objective. Basically, it is an indication of how much you were fighting over the objective, whether defending it, attacking it, or pushing it.
