About Juve

The Portuguese coach was at Into The Breach for almost the last two years of his career, and there is no doubt that the team’s most notable achievement was the qualification to the quarterfinals of the Paris Major.

However, after the end of the Major, the team’s lineup underwent some modifications. Sebastian “volt” Maloș signed for GamerLegion and Cai “CYPHER” Watson is on the radar of TSM. This organization wants to return to the Counter-Strike scene after six years of inactivity.

On the other hand, it is worth noting that Aurimas “Bymas” Pipiras and Adam “NEOFRAG” Zouhar played with Into The Breach in the Play-In Phase of IEM Cologne 2023. However, the team finished last in the tournament after losing to TheMongolz and NiP.
