sorry to say but I believe you are not alone....I started having problems before Thanksgiving, and have never had a problem with my wizards movement...I thought it was just me and the computer but when she gets into a battle you can really see "slow"....the large arrow that revolves to show who is next to fight moves very slow and my pip balls have a vibrating look to them.....things just arent in "sync" right now....I hope KI is working on something or can give us some info on the problem...keep our fingers crossed I guess.
Certain "lags" are just people who are using a cheat trigger to slow their end to "generate" funds of random kinds, I did some research on the slow, but not slow lags, like glitchy sort of.. it's called "Cheat Engine" and evidently a large amount of people actually try it. No point to it, being as gold, all you need to do is farm, and crowns you can earn through little videos, etc. if it's like flashing lag, where things don't move for a bit, then start to catch up at a very very quick rate, leave that realm, it's usually some "youtuber" testing that engine. (although this may not always be the case, being some just have slower connections)
