How much your ping effects your league ?

I feel like it's kinda impossible to climb with ping as high as 250+ as sometimes I was I was charmed or stun even before I saw animation Playing Lee sin is like joke with this ping I live in Asia (not in China, Japan or Korea ) So na is like only server that's English speaking and I can play on but then ping is so high Was placed in bronze 3 (started game 6months ago) dropped to bronze 5, 0 lp climbed up to bronze 4 and now I am feeling like my climbing is way too slow to get that victorious skin

What you want to say?

Ping doesn't determine your rank... your skill determines your rank. But if your ping is so bad you get charmed / pulled before you even see the animation, I don't think you're gonna have much luck.

It's not like it's every game I see these no animation still charmed ,it happens whenever it rains and as far as internet goes I have like 9ms ping on domestic servers so I don't think I can get any better internet

For sure, it's no fun. I didn't say anything about your internet though. You are playing on a server halfway across the world. Some people in North America have issue with ping being so far away from the servers! :p

I'm glad that "you'll have me know" something I literally just said above. Must've been delayed on your screen. ;)

there is no way in hell you can play with 250+ ms ping. just find a game with a closer server or just on an asian server.

Can't play on Asian servers as china Japan and Korea need special security key and that's available only for the citizens

Japan is available for everyone I think

I did 210 for the longest time and ended up in silver 1 though that was in season 4 on NA after the server move I played on NA again with 140 ping and got promoted to gold 5 pretty easily

I do not know whether it is because I improved or because the lower ping helped

probably a mix of both
