Have to echo what Hexagrams said during the cast, the fact they have a team house and the backing to focus on the game every day makes a big difference. But mainly in one of the fights Hex cited their coordination being down to the millisecond between Cocco (Reinhardt) and Tailspin (Reaper) with Earthshatter and Death-Blossom. It happened on their offense for Hollywood if I recall correctly.

tl;dr Point of this ramble is I agree, but I am excited for the up coming LAN to see what other teams can do with the same no delay communications.

Yeah, we did that on accident. People are making us sound a little too good.

Shhh you are not supposed to let them know in these cases! ;) Fair enough though, the coordination is definitely looking spot on comparatively, even if its accidental. Would love to pick your brain when you have time, still trying to learn a lot more to give decent analysis.

Well I have no idea what you comm or don't and what's going on inside your team but I will say that if you're consistently doing things like this even if you're not planning to it's evidence of practice paying off, because you're sort of hitting that "hivemind" where you've seen this situation a million times before and everyone knows exactly what to do. It's happened in a lot of other competitive games where there's so much practice that the team just does coordinated things without having to plan it.

Of course it's weird of me to tell you you're better than you think you are but I'm just making an observation of something I've seen a lot of :)
