LA = 210-230ms
Seattle = 270-320ms
Eastern = 300-400ms
This is by average latency only. And logically speaking, data traversing across longer distance has higher chance of degradation.
So you can get 270 or 300ms and think its nice and playable. But you can easily go up to 500ms for 3secs, and that'd lose you the game in the long run. Anyone serious about arenas should pick LA datacenters. Its not even a point of contention.
dude, ur logic is true but it only applies if you are blaady rich that can use a corporal line, son of TMNut CEO, playing on TMNut server port or you are attached to dato/ datinSeattle = 270-320ms
Eastern = 300-400ms

everything from here to US needs has extra random range of 2.0 - 3.0 for the throttling plus extra 0 or 100 for TMNut randomness of screwing up.
so the actual value should be about
LA = 210-230ms * 2.0 = 420-460 ms
Seattle = 270-320ms * 2.0 = 540-640ms
Eastern = 300-400ms * 2.0 = 600ms-800ms
and the numbers above excludes TMNut randomness of screwing up ports like how they did last hari raya...
