NEED TO KNOW!
Remember folks, this is PSN! With this said, you all can’t expect perfect matches. Tournament organizers will try to make it as perfect as possible, but we really can’t control much. I just thought it sounded cool saying that. Anyways, you can’t expect very low Ping if you are playing someone on the opposite coast, so no beating yourself down if you lose. That’s the experience of online-gaming.
