Jitter vs. Ping: Which Matters More?

High ping is annoying, but high jitter is unplayable. Jitter is the variance in your ping—if your ping jumps from 30ms to 100ms and back, the game can't predict your movement.

The Stability Goal

A stable 60ms ping is better than a 20ms ping that spikes constantly. Our protocols represent a "stability-first" approach. We use advanced buffer management to ensure that your packets arrive in a smooth, predictable cadence, providing the consistent experience that high-level competitive play demands.
