Do you think its possible to reach high rank with consistent 1-5% packet loss spikes?
when i play there is 95% chance that i get packet lose close to 15/20% in some rounds it gets up and down , the only thing helps me temporarly reduce my ping and packet loss is resetting my internet and always checking if my ping is stable enough, if u have a adsl router then go to CMD run it as admin, and type : netsh int ipv4 set subinterface “Ethernet” mtu=1400 store=persistent this will set your MTU to 1400 u can test it if u want to see the best mtu for you by typing this line in cmd : ping www.google.com -f -l 1400 or ping www.google.com -f -l 1372 keep expermenting with it change the value
1400 or 1372 or 1300 or 1340 one of them might work fine and hopefully this can work for u
I had packet loss and high ping for almost 2 years and only peaked gold 2 (player every act), now I got low ping with no packet loss and I'm platinum 3. If you're used to no packet loss and you play even 5% packet loss you will have to change your play style a lot. Bullets don't register, you get killed even before you peek or get peeked, you even teleport even if you're not a yoru/omen/chamber. I get outplayed by silvers on 1-5% packet loss but I could go toe to toe with diamonds and ascendants on no packet loss. I would say no, it's "almost" mpossible to get a high rank with packet loss. You would fare better having 120 ping than 70 ping with packet loss.
