We definitely don't spend enough time on what works. I think a large part of that is because all of us are still highly flawed players, so each of us have a fairly long list of stuff to fix. It can be pretty overwhelming to think about everything you can improve upon.
I really liked the Nautilus + Leona combination last night. Having two tanky champions with craptons of CC was fairly abusive. Our top/mid lanes are usually light on CC and often very squishy, so making up for that with our jungler/support is very helpful.
Edit: Definitely need better communication. A lot of it is just we haven't really spent enough time playing seriously together. We've played a lot, but much of the time we're just messing around so we're not really improving our teamplay/communication.
Edit2: I should probably just duo queue with Soniv whenever the team as a whole can't play, as midlane/jungler communication is so crucial. There really isn't a better way I can think of for the two of us to improve our communication.

Well the last time I suggested duo queue SOMEBODY didn't want to!
And yes, I know that I can end up asking for ganks often. I've been working on it and trying not to clog things up too much.
In all honesty, I think we're fine right now. We just need to keep playing games together. As long as we can still tolerate each other and communicate, even through the fuck ups and misplays, we're in good shape. We just need numbers and repetition, which will come with time.
