CEDH Biweekly @ The Refuge

CEDH Tournament Schedule & Structure

We're excited to host regular CEDH tournaments to build a vibrant and engaged community! The tournaments will be held twice a month on the first or second Saturday and the second-to-last Saturday of the month. The goal is to keep the community active while giving players time between events to refresh. We’ll start with two tournaments a month, but if there's demand, we may move to weekly events.

Proxies will be legal for this event.
