TPG killing esports
 

Can't prac on KR anymore. Get random nights where I can't play sc2 at all. I am close to quitting starcraft purely from a motivational issue, and the tournaments I do enter I have to deal with pings like this:

This was taken directly after PXL. What is the point in playing in tournaments when you have to deal with this? Does anyone have any advice as to how to fix this? I can't change ISP

Re: TPG killing esports
 

Move to New Zealand.

>TPG

Yeah nah they made me hate esports too

Re: TPG killing esports
 

Start playing dota2.

Re: TPG killing esports
 

TPG sucks for good ping, its just good for lots of data for cheap. Switch to iinet

Re: TPG killing esports
 

If only it was that simple, when my net decides to shit itself I get 250-450ms to the Australian server... which is in Sydney...

I stopped even logging onto sc2 because I couldn't stand the amount of delay I had period. Props for lasting this long.

As for solutions - there really aren't any. I got a new router a few months ago and that did fix things a little bit.. but not enough.

Re: TPG killing esports
 

I already do, thats one of the places where the motivation issue stems from.

Aside from moving to New Zealand.

Re: TPG killing esports
 

Looks like standard ping to me. What's your problem?

Re: TPG killing esports
 

KR was always unplayable with TPG for me
SEA + NA very good. EU was better than Kr...

Re: TPG killing esports

Re: TPG killing esports
 

You can crash on Teddy's couch and play in EPS. Ez.

Re: TPG killing esports

Re: TPG killing esports
 

Optus is not much better TT.. wish I could play kr/sea.

Re: TPG killing esports
 

What are you talking about? There's nothing that beats TPG in terms of value. See for yourself:
