Player-less Elements declines offers for its LCS spot, misses deadline to sell
失去隊員的Elements拒絕了其LCS席位的報價，在期限之前沒有售出
After losing its entire lineup this offseason, European League Championship
Series (LCS) squad Elements has declined offers to buy its league spot and
will be forced to build a new roster for the 2016 Spring season.
在休賽季失去先發的Elements，期限之前沒有售出LCS席位，在2016春季賽之前必須找到
新的隊員。
The team was in the process of negotiating the sale with esports organization
Nevo—which formerly owned a Challenger squad that it sold to Gamers2—for a
reported €450,000 (about $493,000).
But according to sources close to Elements and Nevo, the two failed to come
to a final agreement.
曾經擁有次級聯賽隊伍的組織Nevo(不久之後將其隊伍售予Gamers2)，向其報價450,000歐
元(約493,000美元)，但最後兩者的談判以失敗告終。
As a result, Elements has missed the deadline—Dec. 9—for new team
agreements to be filed with Riot Games. Owner Jacob “Maelk” Toft-Andersen
has signed an agreement as owner for the spot. This means that he and his
organization will need to find and field five players by Jan. 2.
Elements因而錯過了出售LCS席位的期限，12月9日。組織擁有者Jacob “Maelk”
Toft-Andersen已經同意繼續擁有LCS席位。那代表他和組織必須在1月2日之前找齊5名隊
員。
The Elements exodus began in November with the departure of legendary mid
laner Henrik “Froggen” Hansen, long-time marksman Erik “Tabzz” van
Helvert, and veteran jungler Marcel “Dexter” Feldkamp. The team also
decided against negotiating with top laner Jesper “Jwaow” Strandgren, who
later left the team and joined Natus Vincere’s Challenger team. Head coach
Patrick “Nyph” Funke's role with the team is still uncertain, but one
source claims he will not be continue working with the team in 2016.
除了“Nyph”還不確定去向，其他的前先發隊員“Froggen”、“Tabzz”、“Dexter”和
“Jwaow”皆已經離開Elements(後者最近加入Natus Vincere)。
Elements is the first team that's failed to sell its spot in the LCS this
offseason. Fellow European squads Team Dignitas EU and Gambit Gaming both
successfully sold their spots to Splyce (formerly Follow eSports) and Team
Vitality respectively. Dignitas EU’s spot reportedly went for $850,000 with
Gambit Gaming’s spot rumored to have been sold for roughly €400,000 (about
$437,000).
Dignitas EU的LCS席位據說以850,000美元售予Splyce(之前名稱為Follow eSports)，
Gambit Gaming的LCS席位據說以400,000歐元(約437,000美元)售予Team Vitality。
With a limited amount of star free agents in Europe, the team could be food
for auto-relegation next split. It placed seventh twice in 2015 despite a
strong lineup in both splits. Was that poor performance down to the players
or the management? If the latter, then fans probably won't be encouraged by
Maelk's return to the helm. As for the players, they'll have a chance to
prove it was all fluke when they play next season.
最後一段就不翻了。
補充：2016LCS春季賽的隊伍大致都底定下來了。在休賽季期間，歐洲有2支新入住隊伍
(Splyce & Team Vitality)，美國目前則也有2支新入住隊伍(Immortals & NRG eSports)
不過，根據小道消息，Gravity也已經售出其LCS席位。Team Impulse的情況並不清楚。
(Team Impulse以沒有售出為結果的可能性較大)
歐美LCS春季賽隊伍名單可以參考以下esportspedia網址(隊伍成員要等到1月才能確定)
(只有歐洲隊伍名單確定，美國隊伍名單可能會有1至2席變動)
