To my knowledge, the only thing that a player can do to affect the number of rounds of lag (as the basher, not the bashee) is take the Greeting the Avalanche legacy. I *think* that the way this works is that you basically get 2 dice-rolls at your lag (still 1-4), and you get the larger of the 2.

I could be wrong on this, though!
