We realize that we have received a lot of backlash from the community for the
fact that we made a conscious decision to take a break following our
championship win in Rotterdam and we wanted to take a moment of your time to
explain the reasoning behind this decision and hopefully add some clarity to
the situation.
我們知道各位鄉民一定對於我們在鹿特丹贏了LCS EU冠軍以後決定放假非常困惑，以下
占用您的一點時間讓G2的小編來為您解答
For the record, while our players did post some unfortunately worded tweets
following a devastating defeat against SK Telecom T1 yesterday, it is not our
intention that this statement serves as an excuse for poor play, but rather
an explanation as to why we allowed our players to take a break when they did.
我們的選手在被SKT屌虐以後發了一篇推特，我們不是想要用這個來當被屌虐的藉口啦
只是想解釋一下為什麼讓選手放一下假
Following a rigorous Spring Split with practice, scrims and official games
for 10+ hours a day, 6 days a week for 3 months straight, it was important
for the mental state of our players to be allowed to take some time away from
the game, visit their families and reset for MSI and the following Summer
Split. While staying in our gaming house in Berlin as a unit could have
offered some team practice, the quality of that practice would not have done
anything to help improve our team play leading up towards MSI and the level
of teams attending here. Planning a bootcamp in China / Asia before MSI
proved difficult, due to the VISA application process and the uncertainty of
knowing whether we’d qualify or not.
在辛苦練習了很久以後，大家總是需要休息嘛～
（Monte批：工三小啦，他媽這根本就職業選手的基本工時吧
人家韓國中國甚至台灣人都比你練更久還沒休息，你在鬼扯阿）
所以贏了決賽以後我們就讓選手回家放放假見見家人充電，畢竟我們還要準備MSI跟夏季
的LCS.EU，可是很辛苦的，雖然我們可以留在柏林的Gaming house集訓啦！不過我們覺得
這種練習質量太低囉～對於MSI一點用也沒有
還有，因為要去中國/亞洲的簽證可能會有問題，所以我們也沒辦法去那邊集訓～
Between the final day in Rotterdam and the start of the summer split the team
have 23 days. 12 of those are before MSI, so spending that time practicing
against Challenger level teams would have been detrimental towards our level
of play for MSI, leading into to the Summer Split and the ultimate challenge;
the World Championship.
而且R，次級聯賽的菜雞太弱了，跟他們團練只會拉低我們的水準，搞得我們在變得也
很廢，甚至影響到我們的世界賽欸
Yes, players did go home on break, but they all kept their mechanics on par
by practicing individually before heading to Shanghai. There simply weren’t
any LCS level scrim partners in Europe ready to practice against and staying
in Berlin would’ve been a very poor use of time.
對啦！選手是有放假不過他們還是有持續練習自己的操作的～
我們也很想團練啊，只不過現在EU跟本沒有LCS等級的隊伍可以團練阿
Instead we allowed our players to take some time off, see their families and
go to MSI re-energized and with high motivation to do good. Obviously our
results throughout the first two days of MSI didn’t attest to that fact, but
rest assured that we will do everything in our power to come back stronger as
the group stage progresses. We had a couple of days of good scrim results
here in Shanghai before Day 1 and we hope that level of play translates into
our upcoming games.
沒錯，我們讓我們的選手放假，充電才能用得更久，休息是為了走更長遠的路
雖然結果並不好，但是我們還是會盡力的，而且其實我們在上海前一天的團練結果不錯
搞不好以後還是可以轉換成實績！
We are greatly honored to be representing our region at this tournament and
we are doing our best to improve each game, and make our fans and Europe
proud despite the hard difficulty of making it through.
雖然很困難，但我們會盡力的打好每場比賽，恢復大EU區的榮光
