Ping issues can be caused by a variety of factors, not necessarily server relocations. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and possibly improve your ping:
1. Check Server Status: Make sure the servers are not undergoing maintenance or experiencing issues. You can check this on the VALORANT Support Site or their official Twitter.
2. Network Issues: Ensure that your internet connection is stable. You can try restarting your router, connecting via a LAN cable instead of Wi-Fi, or contacting your ISP.
3. Firewall and Antivirus: Sometimes, these can interfere with your connection. Make sure VALORANT is allowed through your firewall and your antivirus software is not blocking it.
4. Background Applications: Close any unnecessary applications that might be using up bandwidth, like streaming services, downloads, or other online games.
5. Region Selection: Double-check your region selection in the game settings.
If these steps don’t help, you might want to submit a ticket to Riot Games Support for a more detailed investigation.

@LiDoCaiNe who is providing your internet service my friend
Etisalat
Havent changed it at all too

valorant

kenji i need ur help
Correct
Cant help you with error codes unfortunately my friend can you raise a new topic and one of the tech mods will give you a hand
@LiDoCaiNe the thing is Bahrain is hosted on AWS so that means it bypasses Riot Direct, which is our network. Your provider Etisalat could have changed the way they are connecting with AWS resulting in higher ping there. if you can play on Dubai you should be good. but ill check it out if it jumped but might not be able to do anything about it
Ah alright, thank you, i understand nothing from this as i never looked into internet stuff itself :p, i'll look into it myself a bit too if the stuff is public?
yeah dont worry about it too much, tldr is that we dont have control over Bahrain that much as we do over other locations like Dubai. if you want to learn more I am sure there are plenty of vids out there. let me check if I can dig out the Riot Direct general video
Riot Games
YouTube
Riot Direct - League of Legends
The internet wasn't built for real-time applications like League of Legends, so the Riot Direct team is on a mission to improve it.
Apologies for the late reply, didnt recieve no notifications, i'll try to i guess ask my internet provider if they changed anything, but is there anything else i could do? or nope?
nah my pings chilling
idk
You live in dubai too i assume?
nah Jordan atm
i move a lot
im further away than u
Might just be my provider then
could be
maybe try smth like exitlag's free trial to reroute the connection and see if that fixes it
if so, then u could probs contact ur isp
I'll do it later today
a bit busy atm, appreciate the advice though
@Kenji-San dont know if you guys dropped a new patch or something, but the ping is back to normal today! hopefully it'll remain the same forever :>
