Playing at 180 ping has ruined playing at 40 ping for me.

I usually play around 120-200 ping, and I made a LAN account, so I had about 40-60 ping... It seriously felt like a different game, every time I was killing a tower, trying to kite around it like a total 1337 pr0LCS, I kept cancelling my auto attacks because I was predicting the ping.. Like, how can people say ping doesn't make a difference? I kept missing CS because of the compensation I usually give myself for ping... kiting is so different, there's so many nuances with lower ping, I just... like.. wow.

I normally play at 300 ping on this account, and I've adjusted for the slowly rising ping over the last year or so (all my friends were NA until they ditched me). I have accounts on EUW (150 ping) and EUNE (100 ping) and I suddenly become even worse when I play there. Amusingly, playing on TR gave me no better ping than EUNE.

I play at around 135 (I'm in the midwest US). I wonder what it'd be like...

No idea how people play on 100+ ping. Wtf. I get 25-35 ping to EUW and EUNE and on the rare occasion if i stream too much while playing it spikes into the 40s or 50s and the game feels sluggish and delayed. Certain champions like Yasuo and Zed are unplayable at over 50 ping for me. I wouldn't even play the game if I had over 100 ping :o

It's a absolute shame that riot don't have US EAST servers or central US located servers after almost 6 years. What a joke.

I play with 200+ ping in NA because I have no friends in LAS but tons of them in NA and yeah, I usually miss every skillshot because I'm compensating for the slight delay.
