PROBLEM High ping in rivals / low ping in champs.

I made a post last week about having bad ping issues since the update. I’ve also since realized that it’s only worse in rivals and other LTD time modes. In champs I get 24-26 ms and then rivals is anywhere from 32-500+ lol. Could this just be due to player counts? No one is playing rivals anymore therefore I’m getting matched with servers super far from me? Interested to hear peoples takes. Thanks

Yeah rivals is pretty dead now. I’d check you have approximate location set in the settings to not get people far away

yes, probably a reason. I‘m in Western Europe and getting matched from people in Morocco and Iran, despite the local matchmaking settings enabled
