The team...
While our performance in the last two weeks has been no less than phenomenal, we need to look at the very real broader concerns of the results during this split and moreso, over the last few splits as a whole. Looking back at the Miracle run in 2016, we have been flailing around since, with heavy inconsistency throughout the splits, with each split being a reminder to have hope for the next. But our results have only declined, as we (may, prey for GGS) have failed to even make playoffs.
Due to that, I don't think we can bunker down on the thought, due to the results of the last two weeks and perhaps the upcoming weeks, that this roster is secure. At the very least, we need to look up to shore up our supporting structure, behind the team, look at SKT for eg. there is no doubt that Kkoma and his supporting structure is a large reason for the results produced by SKT, which is just as detrimental as the players capability, if not more.
It's great that we've found a shotcaller that has produced these results, but I highly doubt we can reproduce these results in the summer split in the same manner, after all CLG isn't in a vacuum, while we do what we need to do to improve, so do other teams. And if we go into Summer split with the mindset, 'hey we did great the last 2-3 weeks, lets just continue that in summer split and prepare with some lighthearted scrims, that should do the trick', then we are setting ourselves up for more disappointments.
