What ping do you play at?

Aristial··1 votes·2,177 views

So i had a question for everyone, what ping do you play at? I am curious because most of the people i know play with anywhere between 20 and 50 ping but i play with a lot more than that.

I personally play with an average ping of anywhere between 660 and 750 on average and yes there is no typo there. What ping do you play at?

32 ms, if you are getting upwards of over 500 you might want to think about a better internet plan.

If you get the chance to change plans to another provider and play the game a lot, the lower ping really does make a difference.

Bless your soul for making it to silver with that much of a delay.

I think that is the sad part, the fact that i got to silver with ping like this kinda says something about the lower elo ahaha

Well, living in the countryside, there's no real consistency for me ping-wise.

On a good-day/night (meaning my internet is not being throttled by my ISP), due to living in Oregon, my ping would be 60-63; that's the ping I'm supposed to get.

What I actually get (due to throttling, a family that streams videos frequently, and simply my location [thus having internet obtained through a satellite instead of wires underground, causing interference]) is anywhere from 150-250, and there's no constant between that range. It fluctuates constantly until my entire family is asleep and I've waited a little bit so my ISP is no longer observing my throughput, and then I get the desired 60-63 (which is the best ping I could possibly get in my location as well as peeps in California) simply due to server location.

I have satellite internet as well for the same reason lmao. But yours seems a hell of a lot better, i haven't played with less than 100 ping in almost 3 years now.

I'm sorry :c, I feel your pain, high ping sucks. Knowing how to win a game or at least beat an enemy, but not being able to do so because of something totally out of your control is really frustrating, wish we could do something about it.

THIS, it sounds stupid but point and click champions are impossible for me to play. The command doesn't go through in time for the ability to go off while they are in range so i end up just stutter stepping toward them like a fuckin ape trying to chase a banana.

Wait I just saw your other comment you main Karma as well!? What are the odds lol

How do you find this game fun at all with ping that high?

Aristial1 votes

It's fun challenging myself to predict everything that is happening. For example i main Karma, when i go bot and go for an ult Q i have to know where they are gonna be before they even know. Its not a full second delay but it does feel like a full second delay. Sad part is i can still out smite people with that delay.

I go between the sweetness of 50 to all the way up to nasty 400.

Aristial1 votes

Guessing the 400 is when someone in the house is downloading and your ping just spikes up for a quick second or so and goes back down?

Normally happens when it rains. Plus I live in the middle of nowhere, so that affects it, and my router is getting older.

I play on wifi, and once the ping spikes, it spikes for a WHILE.

Recently I have been throttled pretty bad. But it's never consistent. I can play 2-3 games in a row no problem. Then decide to go in a ranked game. and get a massive spike and just the wrong time. (On levels of "Attempting to reconnect" message or lose control of champion)

I suspect it has something to do with the fact that like 8+ devices use my network, and more often than not, someone is steaming a video.

13 to 200 depending on how shitty my internet feels like being.

More or less 50-70. Play on wifi, so I should be getting a tad better ping when connected to ethernet.

70-120 here. I live in a ranch style house with no cable so I'm stuck with dsl and old lines. I'd do satellite but they are all capped and we stream all our TV
