Suspicious Lag

Hey guys,

So last night my boyfriend and I were playing ranked and our entire team got some very weird lag, but our ping was very good for everyone so it wasn't our internet. Everyone on our team was experiencing it. But no one on the enemy team said a word about them experiencing the lag. It started at about 10 minutes in, when we were up 7-0. At first only me, him, and our mid lane had it, then the other two did as well. It was such bad lag that I would flash and not see it until over 2 seconds later. I was playing Lux and could not land a single skillshot, and whenever I would throw my shields out they wouldn't even land until someone was dead. I downloaded the VOD but it does not show the lag in abilities, only the lag in my walking. Often times instead of walking, Lux would just slide around on the screen and rubber-band to another place. My boyfriend was playing Cait and there were a few times he'd be walking, the screen would glitch and then he would stuck in Veigar's cage and get bursted before he could even do anything or know anyone was there. Mind you, literally no one on their team said anything about them experiencing the same lag, and from how many bubbles their Nami was still hitting, I have no idea how they could have had the lag. I dont know, I submitted a bug report but it just felt weird and I was wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar? Thanks, friends.

In recent months, a few network professionals have been monitoring connectivity to Riot Servers. This effort began as a result of anomalies during in-game activities. Most notably, increases in latency.

The baseline data was gathered from direct measurements to NA Server, using three connection models:

  • Cable
  • Optical
  • Wireless

With baseline created, matches were monitored across subsets. Combinations of the following tags were applied:

  • Peak
  • Lows
  • AM
  • PM
  • Week days
  • Week nights
  • Weekend (AM)
  • Weekend (PM)

DISCLAIMER: This is a private group of Network Security Professionals, Computer Science and Computer Network majors, with no affiliation whatsoever with Riot. Our goal is to determine whether data collected reflects the hypothesis that reflects the growing concern by users that League of Legends is suffering an increasing threat from users applying third-party scripts, hacks, mods, cheats to sway the outcome of a match.

This project is underway, initiated by our member professionals, to ascertain the data-driven facts pertaining to the following concerns:

  • Lag spikes
  • Latency
  • Near-Champion freezes
  • Near-Champion Ganks

Preliminary results (Unofficial):

Increased matches (unspecified period) with various Lag spikes, Latency, Near-Champion Freezes / Ganks Decreased matches (unspecified period) with negligible anomalies

Preliminary takeaway (Unofficial):

Increased anomalies unrelated to disruption model and/or period (connection) Decreased user flow without an anomaly 'outside' 'reasonable' expectation (flow) Increased user frustration as direct result of 'unreasonable' anomaly (lag)

Me too

though I also crash or need to leave and reconnect sometimes

I have checked my internet and even called the company. They said that there were no problems :( [cass-cry]
