"Hey guys.

This is something definitely on our radar, and has been a talking point in our various teams at Riot for quite some time now.

We're currently working on ways to make matchmaking more intelligent so this can be possible. The last thing we want to do is make NA East and West servers and change things up, so there's a lot of design decisions to take into account.

In the meantime, we're working at optimising the connectivity from the East Coast to our servers on the West. This stuff does take time - but I promise we're constantly working in ALL of our regions on making it the best experience for everybody.

tl;dr - Stick tight Summoners! Working on it"

So uh what happened? it's 2015 and the ping in the easy coast is still not close to being as good as the west coast.

Might as well just move to LAN server if Riot is not going to do anything about the east coast pings. It is ridiculous. I want to see what excuse they have now for this.

My ping is actually better now, still not perfect but 88 is much better than 100+ that I was getting before.
