CLG faces a critical test against Team EnVyUs in their upcoming playoff matchup, with several key factors that could determine the outcome.

The spotlight falls on CLG's rookie jungler OmarGod, who replaced Dardoch just before playoffs. His performance against EnVyUs's veteran jungler LirA will be crucial. While LirA's first blood percentage has dropped, his early game impact remains significant through strategic pathing and camp control.

EnVyUs's bottom lane has become a major strength, with Apollo leading NA ADCs in CS differential at 10 minutes. This pressure enables LirA to effectively invade the enemy jungle and build experience advantages.

CLG's best chance lies in the top lane, where Darshan holds an advantage over Seraph. The team should prioritize getting Darshan ahead on a splitpusher while maintaining their trademark splitpush strategy. If CLG can successfully execute this gameplan while supporting OmarGod's development, they should have the edge over EnVyUs.
