I play on EUNE and EUW has the same ping or rather, the EUNE server is actualy in EUW!!! so why cant RIOT just take the 2 servers and get them into one room so its one big server and that its reverted back to EU, I just dont get it. I dont know how expensive it is for RIOT even tho idk why they made that at all.

Same for other servers like Japan and Korea, how I heard most Japanese people play on Korean servers and Japanese server has the lowest palyer count and the guys who play there are isolated.

The amount of players on the EUW and EUNE server is not limited to players who have decent ping such as yourself. There are many players who were suffering before the split because of high ping and dropped frames due to the distance to the servers and the internet in some countries.

Furthermore, there's a ton of players in the EU region, and to my understanding it was becoming cost prohibitive as well as effort prohibitive to manage one single server for all of EU with all the connections from across the EU. Thus, they split it into two manageable size servers such that there would be less downtime caused simply by tons of connections at once from players all over.
