About Valorant ping
Test your Valorant ping from the browser. Valorant runs on Riot's own game servers — Frankfurt, Paris, Stockholm, US East, Tokyo, Mumbai and more — and the client auto-picks the lowest-latency one. This tool probes a server near each Valorant region and ranks them, so you can see which server you'll land on before you queue.
Valorant ping guide: excellent under 20 ms · good under 50 ms · playable under 80 ms · rough past 120 ms.

How this maps to in-game Valorant ping
Valorant runs on Riot's own game servers rather than Valve relays. Browsers can't send the game's UDP, so this test probes the nearest cloud endpoint beside each Valorant server over HTTPS and ranks by round-trip time. Riot's in-client ping reads a touch lower, but the ranking between servers matches what the client's auto-select sees.

How this maps to in-game ping
Real game traffic is UDP; browsers can't open raw sockets. We probe AWS S3 regional endpoints (anycast-free HTTPS) and map each Valve SDR PoP to its nearest AWS region by great-circle distance. Expect ~5–15 ms TCP+TLS overhead vs in-game UDP, but the relative ordering of regions tracks closely.
Confidence: medium-high
Strong for relative ranking and choosing a region. Absolute numbers carry HTTPS overhead. Coverage is sparse in some places (mainland CN, parts of RU/ME) — those regions show — rather than a misleading number.
