Question PvPHQ's Lag & Connection Issues

Recently PvPHQ announced that they fixed a lot of "lag" issues, however I still see so much lag between me and my opponents, and I know it's not me. I don't mean to critique the server in the following, but if these are issues that may or may not reoccur to others than it's best to get these solved quick.

- LA is closer to me than Portland, but how does Portland have less ping/lag? Like 50 average ping on LA and 25 on Portland???

- When I play on Ashburn, sometimes I get EXTREMELY high ping for the WHOLE game, like I don't mean like 200 ping, I mean like 2,000, it's made it difficult if I want to play ranked (since it's the same region as PvP Club), and yes it has happened only on Ashburn and it's so frequent, I have to use alternative server regions like Montreal and Chicago

-I know I'm not crazy, but what is the KB on this server??? Like sometimes I take a trillion KB and sometime I don't, I've heard they got a KB sync but is it truly that or this dumb connection to certain regions affecting me most

I play on ethernet and I get consistent ping on every other PvP server, but I really need help knowing if you guys also face these issues and how you combat them, thank you in advance!

I get about 10ms on la but Portland is still more consistent for me in terms of low ping, I still spike like crazy on most regions
