Recently, kt continued its seven-game winning streak and raised its ranking to third place. It stayed at the bottom of the league until June 5 (18 wins, 2 draws, 30 losses), but it made a twist in about two months.
kt is recording 12 wins and 3 losses in 15 games played in the second half. Excellent performance is also a result, but the most notable thing is that there is no losing streak. This is the difference between the team, which is clearly different from the first half.
Around June, about two months after the opening of the season, kt began to slowly counterattack. The secret was that the main players recovered from injuries and returned, and the backups also did their part while gaining experience. However, the upward trend did not last long. Even if they continued their winning streak, the moment the flow was interrupted, they often fell into a deep losing streak.
In fact, after winning 6 consecutive wins (3rd-9th) in June, kt fell into 3 consecutive losses (10th-13th). At the end of June, after winning 4 consecutive wins (20th-23rd), the atmosphere subsided with 3 consecutive losses (24th-28th). After that, in July, he started running with 5 consecutive wins (June 30-July 6), but immediately went down with 3 consecutive losses (7-9). I should have hit it when I got the momentum, but I was caught in a losing streak right away and couldn’t head to a higher place.
KT, which was like that, is different in the second half. Once you get on the winning streak, you don’t know how to stop. In the second half of the season, he succeeded in winning 7 consecutive wins, the most this season, and is saving the mood. In particular, it was all the more meaningful as it was a valuable result obtained against LG Twins (Winning), NC (Sweep Win), SSG Landers (Sweep Win), and Doosan (Winning), which are in the upper middle of the rankings and are fighting fiercely.
Having advanced without losing in a row, kt is now looking at a higher place by joining the middle-ranking fight. Fans’ expectations are also rising as to how far kt’s momentum will continue in the first half and in the course of other teams.
