Alright, maybe I'm overreacting. Just played several run where people join and can do nothing but leeching and dying. Maybe not because bad players, just bad ping.
And I'm sure AU players have good ping on CN and decent on NA, should not be an issue for them at all. Didn't see AU players on EU Rag in ages.
If someone is leeching, report them. Yes, you might not hit every shot, but as my example should prove (and Woodys does), you can't just say "Hey they got high ping, lets kick them", as the ping itself says nothing about how much you'll help the team.

Though your screenshots are from Hard, and as I said I don't think Hard should have some limitation.
And you might prefer to play on NA or CN anyway rather then on EU with 300 ping.
You are making a vague generalisation. If you have (X) ping and not a few select people you're useless to a rag team.
What is it that makes them worse than someone that's afk lot with less than 10 ping?
If an Au server has 5 people on it but Eu has 10 I'll go to Eu. Ping is not much of a factor to me vs player numbers and who are those players.
Playing with ping is a skill you need to learn to take full advantage of populated servers.
Next you will suggest a minimum requirement of support for rag. This would be something I would at least consider.

We don't.

Bots are predictable, ping doesn't really matter in a bot killing game.

We've never had an issue with high ping players not contributing. Usually it's just people using it as an excuse and not actually trying. So I currently don't see a need for adding a feature to auto kick people for high ping.
Some people also may have network issues which can cause ping to fluctuate dramatically. (I've had an experience where my ping would go from 24 - 400 and this would last a few minutes at a time)

NI is a team game. It depends on the cooperation between players. PING has little influence

I do not understand this topic! why discuss and create problems that only someone has in their head?
a good player with a bad ping is better than a bad player with a good ping)

We should also monitor framerate and auto-kick people when it goes below 12.

Guess it's a good point to say the healing system that we have now restricts what you can do as a low level with high ping.
Most of the 20 or so IDs I have were leveled up never touched an Au server. No one back then said I wasn't helpful from normal to hard and even rag. Most of the time I would pick up heals and do that for the full run and make the cades.
This is no longer available as support is player locked at least for the med side of things. Even tho cades accessible to everyone you still need to bring in a cade at least to be able to place others.
It's can be said you can waste cades but heals self explanatory.
I'm not suggesting anything but I've always been in for buffing not hero classes a bit.
