Getting the first choke

I can't figure out how some people are always getting the first choke on me. I'm mashing buttons and they still get it. Is it just a hopeless case of latency?

    Could be latency~~I used to wonder the same thing, but now I just assume they're button mashing as much as I am as the trades are now more 50/50. Sometimes instead of going for entanglement first i'll try to pop off one blast of ray of enfeeblement as one of the great pvp guides in this subforum suggested.

    Some types of netcode make it beneficial to be moving, or vice versa. For example, CS netcode iirc allowed someone moving to shoot a stationary person around a corner before they could see the moving player, the effect being increased with latency.

    From my experience Neverwinter is the opposite. A standing player seems to always get the first spell on a player moving towards them.
