The competitive scene around Baldur's Gate 3 has shifted noticeably over the last six weeks. We tracked match data from 24 top-tier matches to see where the trends actually point.
The headline change is that Reign has gone from middle-of-the-bracket to consistent top-three placements. That doesn't happen by accident.
What Changed
Three things, in order of impact. First, a roster shift bringing in a former Tier-2 player. Second, a coach hire that's clearly working. Third, a meta read that the rest of the bracket is still adjusting to.
The 4.9 patch dropped two weeks before PAX East, which gave Reign more lead time than most. They used it.
Looking Ahead
The next stop is PAX East 2024. Bracket draws release next week. We'll have predictions when seeding is announced.
