Guys I have been a long time advocate of how bad the lag is in SMASH ULTIMATE, but today I have finally figured out what was actually wrong.
Two things so no wonder it was hard to figure out.
1. My NAT was sometimes D and B. Nat A is the best. Do not let anyone tell you blah blah it's fine with Nat B or some crap, Nat A solved almost ALL of my lag issues instantly. So if you have a lower NAT than A, look online for tutorials.
Changing MTU settings is ASS. All that does is create more in game input lag. At ;east with some ISPs and modems.
And finally, the second issue, which most likely is just my experience. My Switch OVERHEATS. When it overheats, I get dropped button inputs and about 0.5 seconds of input lag if the input does go through.
I have to have an air conditioner blow into my switch while playing.
So there you have it. The mystery for me is finally solved. Changing my NAT to A and keeping my switch way past cool fixed all my issues.
