Lag spiking

I've experienced this and I'm hearing from other guidies on discord - lag spikes on and off on PC NA any time I play.

75ms up to 450ms down to 100ms up to 935ms down to 63ms to 260ms...

Ping to 198.20.200.1 at the moment shows:

Reply from 198.20.200.1: bytes=32 time=44ms TTL=245
Reply from 198.20.200.1: bytes=32 time=57ms TTL=245
Reply from 198.20.200.1: bytes=32 time=64ms TTL=245

This is the only game doing this.

I am not sure if there's another thread already for this. This is incredibly irritating and something that only started up these last few updates.

What could be causing this?

    I’ve been having similar issues recently in certain instances of trials. Progging DB, the first instance of the night can be a slideshow with ping spiking up to 500, 700, 900 (even 5k one night), but the next instance is perfectly fine. Or vice versa. Some other players say they are also affected in the same instance, including from opposite sides of the continent, but not all players are equally affected. There doesn’t appear to be a pattern beyond the instance.
