High ping in Valorant? Stop losing gunfights to latency.
ExitLag optimizes your connection route directly to Valorant's dedicated datacentres in real-time, eliminating ISP bottlenecks and packet loss.
About Valorant Server Infrastructure & Latency
Valorant is Riot Games' flagship 5v5 competitive character-based tactical shooter. Unlike older games that operate on 64-tick or 20-tick servers, Valorant runs on 128-tick dedicated servers powered by Riot Direct infrastructure and AWS edge POPs. At 128-tick, server updates happen every 7.8 milliseconds. Testing your connection before queuing competitive ranked matches ensures your shots register accurately and prevents peeker's advantage from ruining your matches.
Optimal Ping Thresholds for Valorant
Because Valorant operates on 128-tick Riot Direct Dedicated Servers, network latency directly affects client-server reconciliation:
Frequently Asked Questions (Valorant Latency)
What is considered a good ping in Valorant?
In Valorant, a ping between 15ms and 40ms is considered optimal for competitive ranked play. Between 40ms and 75ms is playable, but you may experience slight peeker's advantage. Any ping above 85ms causes noticeable desync on 128-tick servers.
Why is my ping in Valorant high even though my internet speed is fast?
Internet download speed (Mbps) measures bandwidth, whereas ping measures latency (routing distance and ISP peering). If your ISP routes traffic through suboptimal international hops before reaching Riot Direct servers, your ping will remain high despite having a 100Mbps or 1Gbps connection.
How can I fix Valorant ping spikes and packet loss?
Switch from Wi-Fi to a Cat6 Ethernet cable, set your DNS to Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) or Google (8.8.8.8), disable background cloud syncing (OneDrive, Google Drive), and enable Network Buffering (Moderate) in Valorant's Video > General settings.
How do I select the Mumbai server in Valorant?
In the Valorant lobby, click the small gear/server icon above your player card. Check the latency next to 'Mumbai' and select it as your primary preferred server.
