:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

The game is freezing for time periods of around 1 to 10 seconds, and then everything happens all at once, making the game completely unplayable. This has never happened before the latest updates. Other players in the same game are not reporting that they freeze when I do and this has rendered multiplayer ranked play impossible.

:arrow_forward: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

:point_down: How often does the issue occur? CHOSE ONE; DELETE THE REST!

In some sessions it does not happen at all, then all of a sudden it happens in three matches in a row. Very erratic have not recorded exactly how many times it happens. I’d say about 15% of the total matches played, but sometimes it can happen often.

Multiplayer game: both team and 1v1

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

#4

same for me

like i care if his is fine, mine is laggy

#5

It is now becoming unbearable…ladder play impossible. Dropping an extra game every now and then because of this.

#6

Are you guys hosting the game when feeling lag? It seems to me that the game is more laggy for the host. When I hosted a game, I felt lag and my friend didn’t. Then my friend hosted the next game, this time he felt lag but I was completely fine.

#7

It happened both when I hosted and both in auto-matches (both ranked and unranked).

PLEASE DO SOMETHING. I have now lost more than 100 elo due to having to resign due to this issue. It is very erratic and lag is being only form my part, but not my internet connection or PC because I’m checking. I only play multiplayer, and this has made the game completely useless for me. I am currently making a community in my country to promote the game. But I am on the verge of stopping everything and asking for a refund. At least acknowledge that this is a real problem and whether it is occurring to other people. The worst part is that somehow this is one-sided lag.
