I heard that when you delete system32 it deletes your hitboxs

SWEDENS VERY OWN

US Texas to Brazil Brasilia - 4501.07 mi
US Texas to Netherlands Amsterdam - 5065.39 mi

Brazil average internet speed - download: 8.8 mbps // upload: 1.3 mbps
Netherlands average internet speed - download: 29.8 mbps // upload: 15.8 mbps

i sparred a Brazilian in the quick spar room. He had an insane delay + warp every 5 sec.
i sparred Bradd and David M.(both from Netherlands). almost no delay and no lag.

i never understood this. last time i made this -> thallen u said distance is all it matters.
but if one manipulates their internet speed, could it be possible that we could delay+lag?

It's not land distance, it's the the distance and number of hops it takes on your route to the server + the stability of your internet

If you're on a Windows PC, you can open up Command Prompt and type "tracert graalonline.com" for an example (that won't show you your ping to the server, it's just an example)
It takes me 13 hops to reach that server, it might be different from you, it's not like the data travels in a straight line, it has to reach checkpoints and get routed to the right place

Some ISPs are given a better route to the server, like Australia is known for having bad underwater cables and low competition between ISPs so it usually sucks for them, and then lesser-developed countries have worse infrastructure thus worse routes to US servers, etc.

Shoutout to graal the only game where delaying and lagging gives you the advantage.

I never said I was a lag expert or know anything. I'm speaking from the observation of my screen if you were to delay or lag in any other game you get penalized. On graal someone lagging freezes and reappears and gets the most random hits and the delayer has his hitbox far away from their character...

I have wondered why people in France lag/delay so much more than I do. I am of 4hour driving distance to Paris (Sarah lives there) but i've never gotten a complaint on my delay/lag.

Because you aren't as good as her

French players like Alex83 (lives country side) and ant don't have a notable delay. They delay in a sense that shiden delays, it's minimal.

Can't think of an active sparrer that delays near as bad as Sarah.

Sugar delays as bad as Sarah for sure (and maybe kosiris sometimes), not that it matters they're all just good sparrers.

We always had people who delayed pretty badly on graal like meryl, renee, macen, etc but they never managed to win a substantial amount of tournaments/notable stuff because skilled players would always beat them.

LOL I've seen many French players that lag worse than I do but unfortunately they are noobs each time I see one I add them. Alex pmed me that he had 200+ ms earlier and ant had obvious delay.
But if you want to see my perspective of sparring then here you go: https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCdDB3iTB3V3ZgWuFnZt-kzA
A year ago I uploaded a bunch of videos of myself sparring AND I'm showing what wifi I'm connected to, my latency and no vpns connected also I'm showing my location. I would do it again but I'm not jail broken anymore and I can't find screen recording apps. Just because you hate me because I beat you doesn't mean that you have to lie.
Waiting for someone to say another bs paragraph on how I cheat.
Yeah I live in a city but my upload and download speed aren't great.

Put sugar and Sarah in a gh next to each other and hit both with one swing. Sarah will delay more. Regardless, she can't help it so it doesn't matter.

New prediction: shiden will carry his team.

Laughing at qes' statement, what is amazing is that when sarah isn't lagging as bad (when she went to Barcelona) You get to see her movement without the warping and its incredible probably one of the best sparrers in terms of movement if not the best.

we should've done that screen to screen thing back in april. it'd help a lot of people to understand this whole delay stuff.

My input is that its a damn flash game on the internet at this point and on mobile devices and people who have all of this down to a science need to get a hobby. Just sayin'
