Virtual Lag Switch ✨

At its core, a virtual lag switch exploits how modern games handle latency. Most online games use "client-side prediction" to ensure gameplay feels smooth; when you move your character, your computer shows that movement immediately while sending the data to the server. A virtual lag switch—often implemented through scripts or firewall rules—pauses the outgoing data (upload) while allowing the incoming data (download) to continue, or vice versa.
