    I keep getting banned for 10 minutes because my ping will randomly shoot up (usually after an hour or so of playing). Any way around this?

    Just kind of sucks when I'm helping a broski and I randomly disappear (sorry guardian of irael!)

    Don't play on server that have their auto ping kick setting set too low :p

    Its totally up to server owners what they do with this. No way round it from your end other than to avoid the problem.

    Not really :/
    You can try to join servers that you will have low ping in though.

    Are you aware of whether the devs have mentioned any plans to make server selection more informative?

    Knowing the max units would also be nice, for example.
