So I commented this on the LoL forums after TreeEskimo said "100+ping is unplayable".

http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=612887

So, I get 180-220 ping on US and it's fine but what do you consider "unplayable ping"?

Depends on how you can adjust, really. It's just personal ****.

I find it unplayable at about 150, and since im canadian, I hover at around 90. I can tell you it is a huge difference. Well, it's the small differences, such as the times you think you casted something but died anyway, and you were sure you casted it but it didn't go off, that was the few milliseconds of delay that caused that spell not to cast. If you have latency over 150, I suggest using smart casting, strongly suggest it.

I'm regurarly at 35-40 (unless EU servers are lagging, then about 120)
In my situation ping doesn't matter, if my teammates had 0 ping they would suck, so there's no help for them xD

As long as I'm below 200 I'm fine, but some maneuvers require below 100ping. I'm usually between 50 and 150.

competitively yes, over 100 ping is bad, especially on champions like alistar, blitzcrank, and champions with skills that need perfect timing to land (like morg's dark binding)

in normals, doesn't matter so much

Somewhere in the mid 200s or so. Anything over that and I see zombie minions around a lot.
