Not really. I run about 60 ping and my issues on Draven are keep track of the axes, not actually moving to them or directing their travel direction. For me it is around 100 ping that trying to control Draven axes loses consistency, specifically at very close ranges where you have less time to input a command before the axes hit.

I would say 70 is most certainly possible, although it might limit your ability to consistently do very high level combos. However I wouldn't really worry about that.

I would say that around 80ish High level Riven animation canceling + flashes + tiamat comboing can lose speed or cause you to more easily drop an input command.

GP you really only need to worry about it if you are Qing a barrel, placing another into the chain, then flash placing a final one. Other than that ping isn't a huge factor.

Draven is possible to do as high as 100 ping fairly consistently with practice. Issues on him arise the closer the target is to you while still getting your axes to move away from them so you don't drop them.

When I was over in Florida visiting a friend pre server move I found that I could decently play an adc with input commands as hard as kalista at 120 ping, so you should be fine at 70.

Nope, you should be fine. iirc, average ping is around 60-70 from silver all the way to diamond. It's not until masters/challenger that it drops down to like 30.

That's a 0.07s delay on every action. It's usually not enough to really hurt your mechanics or prevent you from doing combos.

Not at all.

I think i would worry about your spikes, ping flux and any how consistently your drop or repeat packets.

I play around 60+ and i do notice some dropped inputs or certain targeting not firing right away. Example is on Dia's qwre quick inputs. Usually E fires early instead of R in order.

My standard ping if lol is only thing running is 77 with a capped framerate of 60. I outplay and get outplayed at an even rate haha, so it seems fine to me.
