Flash Wolves' official team Facebook has announced that the entire starting roster that participated in the 2016 World Championship have re-signed with the organization for the spring 2017 League of Legends season.

"We will continue to strive with this group of players and continue to reinforce their true abilities," the team said in its statement. "The goal is World Championship Flash Wolves, we will continue to work very hard!"

The news dispels rumors that 2016 was to be the last year for Flash Wolves' core roster of Hung "Karsa" Hauhsuan, Huang "Maple" Yitang, Hsiung "NL" Wenan and Hu "SwordArt" Shuojie. The four players have been together since January of 2015, when Karsa was added; Maple, NL and SwordArt joined in 2013. Top laner Yu "MMD" Lihung came on in 2014 as a substitute, but moved to the starting roster at the beginning of this year.

Though Flash Wolves are one of the LMS's two top teams, their poor results at the World Championship, where they failed to escape the Group Stage, made roster changes seem likely ahead of the new season. But the team were happy to put fans at ease with their announcement that all five have re-signed contracts, and they thanked their parent company for continued support.

However, NL said on his stream the same day that he has yet to decide whether or not he will continue as the Wolves' starting AD carry. The team have a substitute ADC, Lu "betty" Yuhung, and he or another trainee may take over the role.
