comms

Definition

Comms is short for communications — the voice or text exchanges that coordinate a team during a match. Good comms are short, specific, and timed: "one B mid, low," not "I think there might be someone over there maybe." Strict comms discipline is the single biggest separator between casual stack play and organized team play.

Example

"Comms saved that round — Jett called the flank." Quick callout from the teammate prevented a flank kill.
