4 years ago or so on the same connection I have now I would have around 32 ping, now it is 70 at the absolute best and frequently jumps to 150+ as somebody who has played with a decent ping it makes the game pretty much unplayable you die and can't react. Trying to always predict what is going to maybe happen, that is not gameplay that is something else entirely and doesn't fall under the roof of things that are enjoyable. The last few years have been like this and it is not going to change all you can really do is complain about it, I'm not even that far east but how is this not at the top of riots priority list? to think I could play this game in a serious capacity but don't have the patience to get out of bronze because of this makes me wish there was a better option for games like this. I know it's not my computer, I know it's not my connection stop bsing us and just come out and say "yeah sorry about that you just won't be able to play some days because of where you live and we aren't going to change it"

Where, generally, do you live? Because on the east coast, you just gotta deal with 90-100 ping at all times. Somewhere closer makes me question your connection.

Toronto, Canada. The thing is my connection is the same as it was when I was getting good pings nothing has changed for my speed test pings or any other game it's only League and only in the past 3 years ( I have played this game since closed beta) it also fluctuates so much that it could only be their servers I have asked my provider about it and looked for solutions here from other players. I'm pretty good at fixing these sorts f things and nothing on my end has made any real impact.
