Yes, BlueJewelGaming back at it complaining about ping. Well, as I've found out, there's this "zone" of latency (not ping zones, this is a lot bigger) where it's not good enough to be able to win a trade with someone that has lower ms than you, but it's not bad enough to the point where you lag and derp around. This would be in between around 70ms and 170ms. A lot of players (myself included) are in this "zone" and actually really suffer from it because a lot of the time we fight players that are below this zone or above it. You can fight someone with 280ms and you will never be able to judge where they are going to end up. You can fight players with 40ms and they'll end up getting every straightline combo the universe has to offer. I know a lot of players that play in this zone and their ELO suffers. However, players in this zone, if they practice long enough, will become exceptional bow users in due time. So I'm either going to play Build on West where I get 50ms or I'm just going to flat-out quit melee and go for bow. Hivlik made a video today about how there is such a large emphasis on melee right now, and it's because players like Danteh get like 20 ping and can rape anyone who comes towards him. So you'll probably see me on today doing UHC or Archer or something like that.

One of my least favorite things to have done to me.

I believe the secret is learning how to w-tap correctly. W tapping with that latency zone requires different timing and style than with a low ping. Watch CraftyLaurence on YouTube…he gets like 100 ping but still got 2500 build last season…
