Huh... It's interesting to see that higher ping guy has the peekers advantage but lower ping guy is absolutely in sync with the peek

[maybe]

The same "advantage" that helps the higher-ping player see the lower-ping player first, becomes a disadvantage on actually shooting them due to input delay.

Funny thing is the 8ms guy looks faster on the other players screen while the 70 ping player looks slower to the 8ms guy. this is a problem

[blakops]

If anyone thinks (Hey I should get higher ping for the peekers advantage). Know as a person who plays in 70 and 100 ping. Even IF you get the peekers advantage you will still lose out on other more important factors such as angle holding and overall lag.
I would personally rather give up the peekers advantage if it meant I can hold angles betters and enemies won't just jitter around whenever someone else uses my wifi.

the swing speed is veryyy big tho, the high ping player is super slow but the low ping player is super fast when moving, thats a big problem ingame

[SeLFlo]

people are missing a vital point, while the peeker sees first, the shots peeker fires registers late as well. overall it cancels out and advantage = defender ping.
and yea its weird that when the 8 ms jett peeks the 72 ms jett, it seems to be instant. the only guess is because the time watch synced is also ping diff-ed. so syncing a high ping and low ping timer is not syncing with actual real time. definitely need more tests. but this video gives me several areas where i could flush and test out myths

higher ping has peekers advantage but also explains why im still dying when im already behind cover

This is coming from someone that played high ping on val for 2 years before they brought servers to south africa where I now play on like 5 ms I also reached plat 3 with 150+ ping as well as played in a few small tournies
Sure there is a slight advantage with peeking but that's about it. Stuff like hit register and you getting shot is more more prominent and harder to play with even if you have a peekers advantage and after riot changed the bullets to only properly register under 120 ping the game became much harder to play on
5 ping tho is crazy my shots register immediately I can swing ppl that's playing on 30 ping and I still have an advantage because my shots will register first and in most cases I will always have a advantage because its not like everyone plays on 5 ping here in south africa I was just lucky enough to live near to where they set up the server which is in cape town

The High ping player will still loose the gunfight even if he starts shooting first

[TomatoTakesOver]

can we get an updated version for that

[real-]

I'm having high ping with most games(talking about +150), i might see them first when i peek but shots won't register even with dns and other things that i used.

[ahmadnasser]

I play on 130-150 ms and ping is cruicial, i jiggle and get tapped after i got back behind cover and it happens a lot, and definitely afffects shooting speed and shooting points a lot, high ping is never better than low pings, and people who say "ping abusing" are stupid and delusional

[anastascompany]

Hitting head while really shooting wall ahhh

[donzafps]

although its similar its about ur shot delay. the extra 70ms will make it so u shoot that much later so even if u have good reaction time the kid wth low ping will get hella adv

[z-man]

we can't make sure if th 0:26 is slept cream at the seen time even with timer u have to shot to make sure

[kitty]

The bullet takes longer to shoot with higher ping

[KingSkouli]

But if you have 70 ping with minimum jittter?

[phineas]

I counted around 200ms reaction time advantage for the peeker, thats a huge gap if you have good reaction time, its like a insta death without seeing the peeker.

[qamqor]

dude you need to put videos top and bottom to clearly see a diffrence

[kekf_lol]

this is the shit i try to explain to ppl but they just dont understand
