How to Show FPS and Ping in League of Legends

While playing League of Legends, the FPS and Ping displays that appear in the top-right corner of the screen and show a set of performance values sometimes disappear, and getting them back on screen can be a hassle. Showing ping in LoL also lets you warn your teammates and let them know about the problem you're having, which can significantly affect how the game plays out. At the same time, showing FPS represents your frame rate, which affects your decision on when you can safely go for a play during the game. Let's answer the question of how to show FPS and ping together:

How Do You Show FPS and Ping in LoL?

Many players who are new to the game can't see the FPS and ping values that affect game quality on their screen. However, showing these values is quite simple. Pressing the '' CTRL + F '' key combination brings the desired values up on screen. Showing ping in chat to let your teammates know works a bit differently. To do this, hold down ALT, move your mouse cursor over the ping value, and click once.

What Is FPS?

FPS, short for Frames Per Second, is a value that represents the number of frames displayed per second. Since the image on screen is made up of frames, the higher the FPS value, the smoother the game feels. Players with a higher FPS value both enjoy the game more and perform better.

How Do You Increase FPS?

• Update your graphics card.
• Close unnecessary applications.
• Defragment and optimize your hard drives.
• Adjust your computer's power settings.
• Turn off Windows visual effects.
• Lower the game's graphics settings.
• Upgrade and improve your hardware.

You'll see an increase in your FPS value.

What Is Ping?

The issue online players complain about most often is high ping. Briefly put, ping is the time it takes for data to reach the servers. This delay happens on a millisecond scale, which is why many people also refer to ping as ms. As the ping level rises, the delay increases and in-game performance drops significantly.

How Do You Lower Ping?

• Try pausing any downloads running on your computer during the game.
• If you're using a laptop, try moving closer to your modem.
• Some games let players choose a server. If there's a server in your country, select it.
• Switch to a wired connection using an Ethernet cable.
• Try turning your modem and router off and back on.
