I play from Europe, The Netherlands to be exact. About 85% of the time, I average around 120ms - 150ms. I, too witness the ping spikes and lag issues. First time it ever happened was last week. Ping fluctuated shot up to about 500ms and once to 1200ms, and then it played around 127ms, 144ms, 250ms. I know that playing from outside NA comes with additional +60 - +90ms. But even then it should never be this bad.
If you could post your traceroute as above, that would most likely explain why. Probably you are now taking a less efficient route to the server for whatever reason.
