Comparing variables

%kill_statements $highest_ratio="Zerg" $highest_total="Zerg"
> Zerg had the highest kill ratio, and the most kills overall.

%kill_statements $highest_ratio="Zerg" $highest_total="Protoss"
> Zerg had the highest kill ratio. However, Protoss had the most kills overall.

%kill_statements
    $highest_ratio == $highest_total
        $highest_ratio had the highest kill ratio, and the most kills overall. 
    default
        $highest_ratio had the highest kill ratio. ~however $highest_total had the most kills overall.
