juanflatroo’s time with the organization began in June 2024 as part of a significant roster overhaul, which included the additions of Owen "smooya" Butterfield, Dionis "sinnopsyy" Budeci, and Nicolas "Keoz" Dgus. This revamped lineup, however, faced challenges in delivering consistent results. This prompted the organization to bench Mohammad “BOROS” Malhas and bring in Hristiyan “REDSTAR” Pironkov as his replacement. Despite these changes, the team’s only notable achievement in the past year was winning the CCT Season 2 European Series qualifier, after which they struggled to perform in online tournaments and remained outside the top 50 in global rankings.
In late 2024, the Kosovian-Albanian player announced a hiatus from professional play due to the toll of an exhausting period in his career. During his absence, Kamil "reiko" Cegiełko stepped in as a stand-in for the squad. The team has now confirmed reiko as a permanent member moving forward.
reiko’s career began with Polish teams like HONORIS and Anonymo Esports before transitioning to other organizations throughout 2024, most recently competing for the Indian organization Revenant. He has consistently delivered strong performances, maintaining a 1.15 average rating in a mix of European online events, including Polska Liga Esportowa 2023 and United21.
In light of the recent changes, Into the Breach now boosts a roster consisting of the British Owen "smooya" Butterfield, the Belgian Nicolas "Keoz" Dgus, the Polish Kamil "reiko" Cegiełko, the Bulgarian Hristiyan "REDSTAR" Pironkov, and the Kosovian Dionis "sinnopsyy" Budeci. Gustavo “Juve” Alexandre acts as the team’s coach.

Meanwhile, reiko expressed his enthusiasm for joining the team, saying that he’s “excited to start working with these guys.”
