Random ping spikes

I live close to Dubai servers, Pakistan, I usually get 60 ping on these servers but sometimes it decides to go above 100+ this sometimes happen randomly in the day and it refuses to go down in gameplay, my wifi is not experiencing issues with ping and it is optimised, can it be server load since it’s the holidays, Bahrain servers are around 70 like normal which shows my wifi isn’t causing the ping.

Hello :gura_wave: Can you explain the problem to dubai a bit more? And for bahrain, The high ping on Valorants Bahrain servers is due to it not using Riot Direct. Instead Bahrain servers are hosted on AWS. Riot Direct typically offers more direct routing and reducing latency. Since Bahrain servers rely on AWS, the routing paths are longer and often pass through a transit ISP which leads to latency issues. Riot is currently working with AWS and ISPs to address the issue but resolving it may take some time.

Dubai server ping is mostly stable whenever I play, sometimes it decides to only spike up to. 120 for me, and others don’t have lag, it stays the same for the entire game making it annoying
