So over the break I consumed quite a large amount of media, and actually wanted to write individual reviews for all of them, but I never quite felt like writing them over the break, so instead I'm going to do a series of small mini-reviews just to get my thoughts down. Feel free to chime in!

Communication and Teamwork; or, Lack Thereof
I greatly enjoy SC2, especially with teammates, and my most common gametype currently is 3v3 with Branden and Aaron. We're currently doing very well, and improving all the time with better teamwork, new strategies and the like.
Obviously communication is a vital part of this, and I suspect that many times we win because we're talking to each other the whole time, whereas often the opponents are random teams who must communicate via typing.
Of course, this assumes we always communicate perfectly. We've had situations, for instance, where Branden communicates some scouting information but one of us fails to understand what this actually means; no one's fault really, but that's how it goes. Other times, though, in the heat of the moment, we even completely miss what our teammates are saying, which can be disastrous; luckily these moments are few.
With that said, certain members of the group are more prone to doing this than others, and even then not necessarily in situations where other things are demanding his attention. Thus, I present the next Rage Comic I have produced, with perhaps more to follow.
