    Your “ping” is the amount of time it takes for an “Internet packet” to travel from you to the server.

    The packet first goes to your router. From there it goes through various servers of your provider and so on...

    You can try this and trace “warmerise.com” to see where it hangs, though the servers for gaming are likely attached to other networks.

    You can lookup the IP addresses that traceroute spills out here:

    High ping could be due to bad internet connection or when joining the region that's far away from your location.
