Magic: The Gathering CPDH League

Wander in and get your Weekly CPDH Fix! Pods of 4 registered decks only. Ask at the counter about Joining the CPDH League and getting a chance for a piece of the $1000.00 Prize Pool!

CPDH (Competitive Pauper EDH) is a Magic: The Gathering format that combines the budget-friendly nature of Pauper with the multiplayer dynamics of Commander. In CPDH, players build 100-card singleton decks led by an uncommon creature as the commander, but all other cards must be commons. The format emphasizes efficiency, synergy, and strategic play within tight deck-building restrictions, making it a popular choice for players who enjoy competitive gameplay without high financial cost.
