Randomly high ping

Hello hello, I came back after 7/8 months and I noticed that there are some matches in which my ping skyrockets to 250-300 for the entire duration of the game.
My connection is ok tho, cause I get to play normal matches in which my ping is 30, so I guess it’s a server problem (?).
I’m playing in Europe, is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

Same here, I’m getting ping in the thousands despite having fast internet connection, emailed customer support but they haven’t said anything back

have you tried using a VPN while playing? some times ISPs will cut corners and slow some nexus to conserve bandwidth, in my case for example, if i don’t use a VPN my ping is most of the time 156-172, and when I use a VPN it’s 90-106

Sometimes the servers can be unstable and will throw you and everybody else in the match into the wrong region servers. I’m from SA and was getting games only in NA and sometimes even Australia (400 ping). Thankfully it’s not too common, but it does tend to happen at least a few times a month for a few hours, sometimes even an entire day.

Hi I’m from smite having the same issue can you pls explain it more in depth, because I came back to paladins and had the same problem 150/220 ping in both games until I used a VPN, I have proved in friends houses with other ISPs and there’s no problem.
PD in smite reddit this comments get erased super fast

I don’t really know the details, “slowing some nexus” is a hypothesis, maybe if you complain to your isp they might be able to explain it/fix it
