If you allow Kali to drop packets to speed up game then Diablo is great. My brother and I had 600ms ping times and still found Diablo over Kali a hell of a lot better than Battle.net. If real hectic it can get a little jumpy but it's better than timing out all over the place and getting locked out of Battle.net I'm using 1.1H2 which might make a little difference as well. Rod.
