I am curious to know what your guys experience has been with ping in Valorant. I have played on 9 ping almost the whole time and I would experience that I was still dying to people with higher pings when I was holding a angle. First I thought I was reacting too late but I did a test on reaction benchmark and I was averaging 150 - 170ms which is ok I think? then I thought it could be my 144hz monitor vs 244hz but even then I don't know how much of a difference that makes. Recently i switched to servers with 20+ ping and i am preforming better why do you think this could be?

TLDR for TikTok brains:

Played 9 ping almost whole time, was losing duels still even whilst holding angles, 144hz monitor, switched to 20+ ping servers and now performing better, why?

even the tldr is a whole essay, get ts off my screen

Idk man, should start playing on higher ping too tho

tldr was an entire thesis, but i read it anyway

my hypothesis is your reaction speed was too quick for your hand to actually hit the target. extra ping helped

tldr:
brain fast hand slow

Just playing worse players 🗿

The servers you’re on are easier and have worse players

that's how peekers' advantage works
