Ping Apparently matters

So we had the first-ever game with an Indian team going up against SEA teams on the Mumbai server.

VLT vs Bleed, VLT and GE both are looking shaky right now. Despite this VLT secured a dominating win (13-3) over bleed. Should I mention that VLT was playing without their IGL cause he is taking rest for RSI.

The rest of the two maps will be played on the Singapore server, so honestly, it could go either way. The thing I was surprised to see was players like DM and the rest of the squad were actually hitting their shots which was non-existent earlier. India basically lost most of the gunfights despite decent util.

Its still one game and I would like to wait a bit more before arriving at proper conclusions but this should actually be taken seriously by riot when they plan VCT 2022. Even a ping difference of 40ms is huge when it comes to pro play. Instead we, unfortunately, got to see SA playing at 70 ping in Mumbai vs 5-10 ping in Singapore and for TE it was even worse at 100+ms ping.

PS - Kinda sad that Bleed (Ex UwU) lost tho. Maybe they lost the name buff.

Edit: Just look at the thrifties from VLT. That shows how much better VLT was, tactically speaking.

pretty short from my standards ngl

It does a lot. Especially in a game like Valorant where they tried to minimize peekers advantaged but made it even worse than other shooters 🤣

imao even lvr lost to 2 maps to team like xo on mumbai server

XO is not even decent at this point. Individual players are good but the team is not.

Kinda true though. GE also easily cruized past LVR on Mumbai servers despite playing an intense Bo5 earlier in the day and being pretty tired.
But that was also before Juicy came into LVR. Still I don't think Juicy is that much better than DM or SkRossi on same ping.

DM won gunfights.

This does not happen when they play on Singapore.

IN every match with an Indian team and Singapore team, Indian teams lost bullshit gunfights despite being pretty crisp in local tourneys. Despite util being better than the other teams.

Ping matters when both teams are more or less at similar level..It doesn't matter when a superior team playing on 70 ping and other on 5-10 ping.There will always a high chance of winning of 70 ping's team.

When I hit 50 ping I feel like my game is super buggy

I cant even imagine what it’s like when you are on 100 ping playing against people on 10 ping

don't jinx it dont jinx it

Valorant is a game where peekers' advantage plays a huge role in duels. Ping helps players abuse peekers' advantage.

well, I personally always play on either 60 ms ping on Mumbai, 90ms on Singapore, or 80ms on bahrain.

TBH its playable but not at any level above diamond. Above that you really need sub 40ms ping to be at your full.

Not as much. There is a difference between a dominating win and a hard fought victory.

Win is A Win

Hopefully they provide better service and competitive integrity (ping for Indian teams) next VCT.

People actually denying ping problems earlier tho 🤣
