DetonatioN's rebuild comes after poor results in 2022, during which the team failed to qualify out of Japanese open qualifiers in both stages. Following their acceptance into the Pacific league, DetonatioN began their roster shuffle by shifting Hirotaka "Melofovia" Okazaki to a coach role and releasing Tomonori "SSeeS" Okimura.

The highlight of the organization's new signings is former NORTHEPTION NORTHEPTION Japan Rank #5 player and Crazy Raccoon Crazy Raccoon Inactive streamer Park "Seoldam" Sang-min (박상민). Having taken a break from competitive play, Seoldam is notoriously known primarily for his flashy duelist play on a previous iteration of NORTHEPTION NORTHEPTION Japan Rank #5 . He previously placed second in the 2021 APAC Last Chance Qualifier only to FULL SENSE FULL SENSE Asia-Pacific Rank #3 Leviathan Thanyathon Nakmee Laz Kittikawin Jirawatkakan seph1roth Chinnakrit Phoojaroen Apinya Apinya Laotaew Potter Sutthichai Promsrikaew qqGOD Phoomphat Phodjanat to lose out on making Champions.

Oshiro "Reita" Ryu, Takemori "takej" Shogo, and Anthem , all three formerly of REJECT REJECT Japan Rank #12 Yoshiii John Yoshiharu Kawakami MeatPieN hiroronn Hiroki Yanai Jremy Jeremy Cabrera , have also joined the roster. REJECT suffered losses to Crazy Raccoon in playoffs of Stage 1 and Stage 2, ultimately missing out on Masters. However, their results were enough to accumulate enough points to qualify to the East Asia LCQ, where Anthem then joined REJECT for the event. Subsequently, they finished with a top-six placement. Both takej and Reita also had previously qualified to Masters Berlin under ZETA DIVISION ZETA DIVISION Japan Rank #3 SugarZ3ro Shota Watanabe Xdll Yuto Mizomori eKo Yeom Wang-ryong (염왕룡) stand-in Absol Kazuki Fujinoki stand-in HoneyBunny Fumiya Tanimatsu stand-in the year prior.

Finishing off the roster is Tomoki "xnfri" Mariya, a core player of NORTHEPTION's revamped 2022 roster. His team was able to carry consistent finishes throughout the season, with a top-three placement in Stage 1 and having qualified for Copenhagen after a victory over ZETA DIVISION in Stage 2. NORTHEPTION ended their year by finishing third in the East Asia LCQ, stumbling against both EDward Gaming EDward Gaming China Rank #3 ZmjjKK Zheng Yongkang (郑永康) nobody Wang Senxu (王森旭) CHICHOO Wan Shunzhi (万顺治) Smoggy Zhang Zhao (张钊) Jieni7 Zhang Juntai (张君泰) and Incheon On Sla2ers Incheon On Sla2ers Korea Rank #29 VaNish XirZz to face elimination.
