a major gameplay problem never touched ... the reliance on latency

the reliance on low ping is a serious issue in this game ... thou rarely spoken of ... it still remains a giant factor in determining your rank during my glorious 5 years with the game i actually went from a really good internet connection to a really bad one

the truth is that in this game ping = elo ... ofc not entirely but a good player with a bad internet ... well don't expect him to get diamond even if his skill is challenger, especially challenger where average latency is much lover that at any other rank and this is a competitive game ... even if they cant make this game run perfectly even on the worst connections ... they certainly shouldn't allow couple ms of latency to be a game deciding factor

and as a guy who managed to be in both worlds ... the difference is monstrous ... the overall responsiveness of the game is much better when you have 40ms less ... and by responsiveness i mean that you can literaly feel the delay beetwen you clicking or pressing a button and the animation starting
