ETF2L is currently on its 14th 6v6 season and 4th Highlander season. Both 6v6 and Highlander leagues consist of different skill levels, ranging from Division 6 (lowest skill level) to Premiership division (highest skill level). Divisions usually have a size of 6 or 8 teams. A season usually consists of 5 or 7 weeks of regular matches, and a week of playoffs.

Matches usually consist of two maps, each lasting 30 minutes. The following win conditions are used:

  • On 5CP maps, the map ends once the time limit runs out or one of the teams scores 5 more points than the opponent. In case of a draw after the time limit ends, a tiebreaker round, known as golden cap, is played. The golden cap ends once one of the wins captures all points or 10 minutes pass, at which point the team currently in possession of the middle point wins.
  • King of the Hill maps are played in a best of 5 format (first to 3 wins), without a time limit.
  • Attack/Defense and Payload maps are played with stopwatch mode and are played in a best of 3 format. The teams alternate between attacking and defending; if team A defended first in the previous round, team B will be the first to defend in the next round. Most of the time, an A/D or Payload map is the sole map of the week, and as such are not combined with other gamemodes.
  • Capture the Flag maps are played as best of 3 rounds, with each round lasting either 10 minutes or until one of the teams captures the intelligence 5 times in a row. If the match ends in a draw, a golden cap round is played. The golden cap round ends after 5 minutes or one capture. If the golden cap ends in another tie, it is played again until a conclusive result is reached.

The top 4 (6v6) or top 3 Premiership teams (Highlander) qualify for the playoffs. Playoffs games are played in a best of 3 maps format. The lowest-ranked team faces the second lowest-ranked team, and the winner of the match faces the team ranked above both of

The second last Premiership team faces the second Division 1 team in a relegation playoff, also played in a best of 3 maps format.
