Lags since latest patch

Ever since the last patch I’ve been having lags.
Talking about someone who’s never had lags after a patch before, and almost never had lags due to networking issues (which would resolved themselves after a few minutes…)

This is consistent, for the past >2 weeks now I’ve been having lags for E-V-E-R-Y match, no matter how many times are restart the game or my router.

Blizzard, please help

Hey there!

Thanks for reaching out regarding that lag/latency. Lets go ahead and grab a winMTR so we can further investigate the problem. Here are the instructions:

  1. Download the tool from this page
  2. Enter the game IP into the “host” field. The IP address for our games are listed on the winMTR instructions page
  3. Start the test and play the game for at least 15 minutes. Ensure the problem happens while the winMTR tool is running.
  4. After recording the problem data, click “export text” and save the winMTR file in an easy to find location.
  5. Once you have that made, open the file. You’ll need to copy and paste the contents of the Text document into the post, and put four Tilde (~) marks above the winMTR. It’ll look like this:
WinMTR goes here

If you have issues pasting here, please use Pastebin and post the link (ex: Pastebin (dot) com/123456).

A post was split to a new topic: [lemin] lag since patch

Dear Blizzard,

The game is unplayable. As of today, every single player in QM and Ranked has lag spikes every 5-10 seconds. Hard 1-3 second spikes especially in fights. Yesterday everything was fine. In-game chat are predominately related to how everyone is lagging. Please have a look at it.

Everyone in my team got lag-spikes in brawl. So it is on blizzard side, not us. Every game same scenario, micro lag for 1-2sec every 1-2min.

FIX THE LAG!!!

thank you

Dear blizzard.
I am still lagging, in case you forgot.

I am also lagging. I have a wired connection and HoTS in the only game I lag in. Never lag in WoW or OW, just got Doom Eternal and it runs flawless, among plenty of other games. No lag. Ever.

But HoTS, the stuttering screen every time a team fight is about to happen. If nothing is going on, you get the stutter every 10 or so seconds instead. Hell, even mounting up causes the screen to stutter.

I have been going through the options trying every troubleshoot method I can think of to alter my settings to reduce the lag and nothing works.

I have a friend who lives close by and has the same ISP as me, a lower quality rig, and he says HoTS runs smooth for him.

What gives?
