How leagues work
How Commander groups play together over time in EDH Leagues: members, games, standings and seasons.
What is a league?
A league is a lasting group: your LGS night, your friends or a public community. It ties several games together so points add up over a season instead of a one-off table.
Creating a league
Any registered player can create a league on the site or in the app. The owner picks the name, visibility and country, and schedules the games. Each game has its own set of actions: random, hand-picked or global only.
How do I join?
- Private leagues (default): not listed anywhere. You join with the invite link or code the owner shares with you, opened in the app.
- Public leagues: listed so anyone can find them. You can use an invite link or code, or tap Request to join and wait for the owner or a league admin to approve you.
Nobody joins a league automatically: you need the invite link or code, or an approved request.
Playing games
League games are played in the EDH Leagues app. When a player finishes a game, it waits for the owner or a league admin to approve it. Only approved games count.
Standings and seasons
The standings are the sum of the points each player scored in the approved games of the season.
A league can run several seasons, each with its own standings. When a league ends, the owner can archive it: it stays visible but can no longer change.
