NA ranked

To all the NA people in ranked, are the lobbies filled with EU hackers? or have i just been getting unlucky?
I am around asc mmr, and almost all the games i played today had people from EU with cheats (and its not always obvious). Is it just unlucky go next or is this a real issue (i haven't played ranked in a while). Really removes the fun out of the game.

this guy for example. He has crazy stats with 150 ping, you might think he is goated but you need to see the gameplay. He has a inhuman reaction time and impossible to kill when he has an awp

i think you'll only see this problem in Virginia servers exclusively considering its the "closest" to Europe, there are a shit ton of eu stacks who no comm and lock something like duelist, initiator and smokes who are most likely boosting or smurfs

Europe and hackers name a better duo. I'm doing fine in dia-asc lobby, no hackers so far. which server are you tuned in anyway?

yeah, that game that i linked had 3 people on the enemy team on 150 ping.
I also do play on Virginia server, do u think switching to Illinois would help?

EDIT: the game i played right before had 2 ppl with 150 ping

i personally switched to illinois considering i think central is a LOT easier than virginia
it happens from time to time once you get into those i guess upper ranks? around ascendant area is when you start to encounter eu smurfs and shit, so if your ping is still pretty good in Illinois id suggest switching it and seeing if you're doing well or not

alright thanks, i go from 30 -> 39 ping so i think i'll manage.

And if ur saying Central is a lot easier than virginia aswell its worth it.

i assume high ping somehow helps those guys avoid being detected (not sure)
