Your ping is too high!!!!!1

The single most frustating thing about playing DG is the ignorance people have with ping.

Under 350 ping is fine!!!!

Those of us in AU/NZ only know too well that this is true, we have to play with ~300 ping alot of the time. Of course, try and join a US West game and see how long you last with a ping of about 250...280 to Central.

Sorry to say, and i know it's not all US players, but most of them cry about a ~300 ping the moment they see it and then boot you.

FFS....i play to US Cent all the time at 283 ping and it is perfect....absolute perfect. I have even played some Panth games with folks in EU at close to 450 ping...or more and it is fine..the odd lagfest allowed.

For all those that love their low ping....listen up..under 350 works fine, if you bothered to allow a game or two to run you would see that.....

I wish there was another system in place of giving the actual ping number...maybe a color code system.

Green light for playable ping....say up to 300.

Orange light for border line ping....to 300 to 400 maybe.

Red light for what will no doubt be laggy...400+

Though there will always be exceptions......

Sigh....end rant.

neilo u saved your team in that game.

i dunno about that, but thanks!. I ended up feeding quite badly toward the end when trying to get those portals. A reasonable excuse in a way, but feeding is never acceptable.

Those 3 or 4 early kills i got though really helped us early, which set up us nicely for the rest of the game.

I use different builds all the time. My ideal build is to use Angelic Fury but i never like to take it too early as it is a mana drain. I don't often take maim or MotB, maybe a point in each.

Good point on AofV and Narmoths....i been taking Narmoths a bit more lately...i tend to (foolishly) ignore the trinket tab at times...i don't why....

It was a good game with the team skill pretty even i thought.....i enjoyed it. Gotta love the Snipe/Wrath combo though.....
