Trust me it's annoying as hell when the other guy takes no kb and rods don't work on them.

Click fast, aim, spam w, blockhit whenever you can. Play ladders such as gapple where lag will help you to win fights

I'm saying that laggy people won't be able to have a chance in ladders that include bows, it's only fair that they should be able to get rating in some ladders. Read what else I wrote in the thread - people will always be laggy and we can't stop that, but people purposefully going onto other proxies to get a lag advantage shouldn't be allowed. For people that just lag because of shitty internet, it's not their fault and they're playing on the right host, I directed the above message towards these people, not the ones directly abusing proxy switching

Bow ladders are better for lag than melee ones.

It is. Lagging in melee either gives you an advantage, or it completely screws you over. If you look at the bow, it is far more consistent. As long as your ping is lower than your reaction speed, you should be fine. If your ping is higher than your reaction speed, then it gets worse than melee.

take a break from all the factual information, equations, and predictions and move on to OBSERVATIONS. Higher ping is ALWAYS worse, no matter what, with a bow, it's not better, it's not the same. You keep spouting bullshitty statements about this but you barely play. Ask anyone who plays pot ladders and bow ladders, high ping helps you if anything in melee (crazy delayed kb) and NEVER is okay in bow. Bull. Shit. When people try to argue this with math instead of playing the game.

Buddy I had the most ranked kohi archer wins (3000+ matches), nearly triple the amount of wins as the guy in 2nd place. I played every single match with over 250ms. I know what I'm talking about, lag is a melee battle is much preferred over a bow battle.

1. My internet can get very bad, so when I am dealing with high latency, I feel better playing bow than playing melee.
2. Do I have to state this every time? It can be the same. You tunnel vision into saying bow delay=bad, when in fact all that is required is getting used to it. Get used to 200 ms like I've had to then tell me its worse.
3. A truer statement nowadays, but what if I told you I don't enjoy playing ranked? What if I play on other servers? Ever thought of that? Ranked isn't everything.
4. High ping in melee is inconsistent at best. Sure you get the delayed kb, but you also can get easily comboed and can't do anything about it.
5. If you are going to argue with someone, don't be incredibly toxic. If you get into a debate with someone in real life, are you going to be cussing them out because they have a differing opinion? If you do, that's how you make sure you will have no friends.

That's never right + one of the only ladders that really gives you an advantage while you lag around is Gapple. Idek why you thought higher ping is bow ladders is better lol

@DJPano I'm being "toxic" (if you call saying bullshit toxic) because I'm tired of talking to people who don't have any clue what they're saying. All this "getting used to" and "reaction" lameness is dumb. I don't see anyone but Metarus supporting your claims because they play, and play well, too.
If you can't take the word bullshit, especially in an informal debate such as this, that's how you have no friends.
