You can run a traceroute to see which game server you're connecting to.

I can't complete the test.
The last tracerouter with server IP 44.194.120.71 is located in the United States. That would explain the high ping.
IP 3.218.10.242 is also in the United States.
IP 54.217.60.188 is located in Ireland. Which should give a better ping time than United States. Unfortunately the traceroute doesn't reveal much information for the Ireland game servers.
The last hop not responding is normal since Amazon has their gateway router configured to not respond to ICMP ping requests. The farthest we can trace is to the edge of Amazon's data center network, but that should usually give a 90% accurate ping time.
Although this isn't the case for the traceroute to Ireland. I would expect the ping time to be higher than 14ms going from Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to Ireland. The way it's being routed makes it hard to tell what's happening at the very end of the traceroute.
There are differences
In the server list, sometimes it gives lower ping
Outside server 66
And when you enter, the problem appears, which is high ping
Inside server 95
And sometimes the server list matches what is inside the server
