High latency is perhaps one of the most frustrating issues any FPS gamer can encounter while playing multiplayer video games. Not only does it prevent you from performing well during intense combat, it also suppresses your real skills in any multiplayer game.
In Valorant , currently the most sought-after tactical shooter on the market, it is very important for players to have as low latency as possible so that players can stage a consistent game. If you find yourself experiencing high ping issues in Valorant , then you've come to the right place. Today we're going to take a look at what you can do to fix your ping problems or just reduce in-game lag in Valorant.

While there is no specific "fix" for your ping problems in Valorant , there are alternative solutions you can do to significantly reduce your in-game latency and ultimately improve your ping.
First, make sure your ISP (Internet Service Provider) is not the source of the problem. If your internet speed is as slow as a turtle, there isn't much you can do to improve your in-game lag in almost any video game . If this is the case, try upgrading your internet plan to one that provides more speed. You can also consider switching ISPs if needed.
Another obvious solution would be to restart your router, which can usually solve your lag problems to a great extent. Restricting background apps is often not optional for your ideal video gaming experience. Any app running in the background while playing Valorant or other games can increase your in-game lags. At the start of any game, open your task manager (CTRL + SHIFT + ESC) and close unnecessary processes that may use internet speed. Next, you should reduce the number of connections on your router. For example, if you have three phones connected to the router in your home, your internet speed may suffer a serious slowdown while playing games.
After completing the above-mentioned steps, you will notice a significant drop in your in-game pings.
