It's Better Together is a Co-Op based Minecraft Adventure Map made by 'FloddyFosh' and based on the Portal games by Valve. On October 3rd 2011, Rage and Hollow began doing a play through of the map as part of their 'Adventuring Rage and Hollow Style' series. The two major issues with the series was that it was a puzzle map that involved working together and neither of them were very good at solving puzzles or working together. They would also mess with each other on purpose in ways such as pressing or not pressing buttons, standing or not standing on pressure plates, causing their platforms to fall, breaking blocks and straight up attacking each other back and forth. Rage also began annoying Hollow by singing the title of the map and creating a theme song for the series. Every intro he sang 'Its Better Together, Solving Puzzles with you and me!', which has been made reference to many times since then.
The first rule of the map was to 'Play on peaceful' but Rage had problems with his server that made monsters spawn anyway causing creepers to blow up the room at one point. In the comment section he said 'the server wont have it, we are technically on peaceful.﻿ Monster spawn is set to false. The server doesn't care. The server does what the server wants'. They also cheated several times during the map, you know, as you do, by skipping rooms, skipping parkour, going game mode one, breaking blocks and on the water jumping puzzle by using sprinting which wasn't in the game when the map was first released. Most people at this point have just accepted it as a part of the entertainment and how they usually play maps. Through out the videos Hollow threatened Rage by pulling out an Iron sword and charging at him, often killing him. In later years Hollow would upgrade to a diamond sword. They had a lot of issues and technical difficulty near the ending due to minecarts and railways but they managed to get through it with several jump cuts, replacing carts, fixing redstone, restarting the server and spawning flint and steel. They completed the map in 11 episodes which were all uploaded to Rage's channel.

== Mapstravaganza Refrences: ==
Later, long after the completion of the play through, 'It's Better Together' was referenced in episodes on Mapstravaganza. One episode featured a map made by a user named 'AryazProMiner' that was directly based off Its Better Together. Hollow says in this video "Only dedicated viewers will remember that" as if archive viewers don't exist. When Hollow mentioned it, Rage began singing the song to which Hollow said 'I still hear that in my sleep'. Rage and Hollow immediately began making each other fall off of platforms with Rage starting it and Hollow retaliating. Hollow perfectly summed it up with the words 'This is why It's not better together'.
