About WiFi players in Skullgirls on Steam...

I don't know if this is the right forum to post this here, but this has been concerning me for a while. I bought the Steam version of Skullgirls 2nd Encore alongside the Season 1 Pass. My laptop doesn't have an ethernet port, so I usually use WiFi since the Steam version has a WiFi indicator, knowing that WiFi players aren't allowed in online tournaments. Is it true that WiFi players are a bit slower than players who use a wired connection? If so, then they are better off playing the PS4 version, right?
 
Wifi is more susceptible to big changes in jitter, causing major rollbacks sometimes during the matches. Otherwise it is the same as wired.
 
Wifi on console isn't any better than wifi on PC. The problem is that a wireless connection is less stable than a wired one, that problem exists regardless of platform.

If your laptop doesn't have a port, you can get a USB adapter for like $5-10.

That explains why players who are using WiFi aren't allowed in online tournaments. And if that's the case, I'll get me a USB adapter from Amazon if it means establishing my smooth online experience. I heard it also works on consoles.
