Ping is directly related to the physical distance between connection points. So yeah, as caOH MY GOD IS THAT CADENZIE said, theres not much you can do that isnt "move to korea". You can do a traceroute from your computer to the server and if you see something odd on the list, contact your ISP and sort it out. Getting a higher speed plan wont do you any good

Oh, and forward port 6112 on your router and tick the box to prefer this port on the options menu in-game

What is your problem more specifically?

Do you lag in games?

Do you get banned from custom games?

If you show a red bar and don’t speak Korean, you’re pretty much guaranteed to get banned from custom games in the Korean server.

Yo, got a question

What's the best way for me as an European, to ladder against Americans? I tried using mudfish, but I think it only works for South Korea, as it's the only destination server.

Help!

most good VPN's should let you relocate yourself to the US (for europeans, east would be the best)

instead of adding KR nodes add USA nodes, its on the list

[image loading]

For example i selected the UK nodes to play vs Europeans, make sure you log into Asia on your bnet launcher or Mudfish won't work (even when you wanna play vs Americans). A good way to know whether or not your VPN is working is by logging onto West and checking the pings of public games, you should see a lot of 5 green bar games.

you can also select NA East coast nodes only if you wanna have the best connection but i haven't tried that out yet, so i dunno how its done
