Team WE will compete in the National Electronic Sports Open (NESO) from Nov. 5 to 8. As the Chinese roster transfer period will extend until Dec. 15, they at least need to acquire an interim roster to field for the tournament. Lee "Spirit" Dayoon is not present on the roster, and his absence strongly implies that he will leave the team.

Recently, Spirit openly came out expressing his problems with playing on Team WE in 2015 in an OnGameNet interview. The interview seemed to heavily suggest he would not continue to play for WE, and it was known his contract would expire in November.

Peng "Aluka" Zhenming, Ke "Conan" Yi, and Su "xiye" Hanwei remain on the roster from LPL Summer, but the Korean players will not play at NESO. Wang "WuShuang" Haili, who signed to the team from solo queue before the World Championship, will play jungle for the team. Chen "sukiM" Zhiyuan, who was previously the mid laner for the team in 2014 Spring, will fill the AD Carry role vacated by Jin "Mystic" Seongjun.

No information related to whether Mystic will continue to play for WE is currently available. It is suspected that the NESO roster will not be the final roster for Team WE for the 2016 LPL Spring season.

Team WE play in Group A of NESO, along with VP Gaming, Invictus Gaming, POP187 Club, and Sacrosanct Yataghan Gaming. The tournament group stage will begin at 11 p.m. EST on Nov. 4. It can be watched on NeoTV.
