    Though I agree that high ping on survivor is a disadvantage 95% of the time, as someone who plays a ranged killer I cannot hit a player with 150 ping to save my life. The hit will look direct on my end but nothing happens. Meanwhile I'll have a visible miss that goes through as a hit. It's occasionally, in very specific situations, an advantage to the player, but you probably don't even realize it. You just think the killer is missing a lot.

    yeah to be fair I can't comment much on killer gameplay since I'm a survivor main, but I do agree with being difficult to hit ranged killer shots when a survivor is high ping I mainly am just talking about my experience in this whole thing but yeah ranged killers do struggle against high ping survivors. To me it feels smaller though since you can just m1 or even chase the other survivors if one of them is high ping but when the killers high ping I can't do much in solo q but your point is definitely correct.

  • To the people claiming survivor ping is an advantage: I have personally played thousands of matches on 170 to 200 ping on my friends' servers for years. There is absolutely zero advantage to it. High survivor ping introduces a terrible delay on literally everything you do, including using your items. It causes you to drop pallets late and get hit miles after vaulting because the server prioritizes the killer's view. High killer ping rewards the lagger with hits, while high survivor ping actively punishes the lagger. They are completely different mechanics. Delay on killer might be bad in some small ways, but you get to hit survivors from far away which is way better. Maybe around 300+ ping on a survivor it becomes an advantage because your character starts completely teleporting around the map, but anywhere around 200 ping is just pure disadvantage.
