For me, living in Malaysia, Singapore 2 has always been the go to. It might be 5-6ms more on average than Singapore 1, but it's much more stable.

Now, that they have removed any second server of a region, it is unstable. I consistently get 1000ms ping spikes at least one every 20 seconds. My friends also reported the same.

I read from a source that they just consolidated the 1 and 2 servers into one thread, and it should not have any effect; my experience says otherwise.

The update of this has significantly downgraded my experience of Valorant. Instead of raging from bad teammates, i now rage at my ping spikes.

The servers have multiple network options that get tested during match making. These spikes might be indicating an intermittent problem the test window misses. They are the same servers as they’ve always been and in the same locations - the client just tries to find the best path to them. Which ISP are you using and which city are you playing from? I’ll get the team to take a look.

Ok - unfortunately they don't seem like a huge data source for us so you can either DM me your IP address ( google "what is my ip address") with the last digit replaced with XXX or you can raise a player support ticket.

The client often selects the worse route, where I live, my two lowest options were p1 path ~60ms, and then f1, 67ms, p2 path has always been 78ms, now that the selection is up to the client when I select paris only, it literally cost me so many matches, by connecting me through p2 on 78 (and often 2 to 10% packet loss) ping instead of p1 with 60, I don't understand, why not just let the user select a path in another place in settings or something!

Which ISP in France? This doesn't really make a lot of sense as latency is the key metric on deciding which network path the client will use.

Hey, i live in singapore itself. Singapore 1 gives me less than 10 ping and singapore 2 gives around 15-ish but singapore 2 is much more stable and consistent than Singapore 1.

This doesn't help unless you mention which ISP you're using.
