European Development Championship EDC - Everything You Need To Know

The European Development Championship, more commonly known as the EDC is a tournament series hosted by local esports tournament organiser Eden Esports. This event is being managed by FantasyExpo, a team of hard working experts which are doing the background and admin work for the event. Here’s everything you need to know about the EDC.

What is the EDC and why is it good for Europe?

As the name suggests, the EDC is a European based event which is meant for Tier 2 teams which are on the verge of being the very best in Europe. This tournament features the best of the best Tier 2 teams out there, and it also allows a local Maltese team to participate in the qualifiers for a chance to reach the main event.

European Development Championship Season 1 Recap

In the 1st season of the EDC we had team K23 at the helm, dominating the entire event, from the group stage, up until the Grand Finals. Movistar Riders weren’t too bad either, placing 2nd overall in the rankings, but ultimately falling against the mighty K23 squad.

What’s next for EDC Season 2?

Even though there has not been an official announcement as of yet, it is very probable that the European Development Championship will feature similar teams to what they had in the 1st season. It will also consist of the Malta National League spot, which will allow a single Maltese team to participate in the event. It is rumoured that the event will be kicking off somewhere close to the middle of January or early February. In their end-of-season 1 summary, Eden Esports state that the registration for the 2nd season will be open soon, and that there will be a total of $30,000 in prize money.
