A number of figures in the [[Highlander]] community were playing with the idea of having a class limit of 1 in [[6v6]] to force the usage of situational classes in competitive. This eventually led to the [[Challenge Cup]] in late 2016, a cup with $2,000 USD in prizes which was meant to be 6v6 but was changed to [[7v7|Prolander]] in the last minute. [[Sigafoo]] later created '''RGL''' as a league specifically aimed at [[7v7]]. It had a prize pool of $4,000 USD in its opening season, which attracted many high level [[ESEA-Invite|ESEA Invite]] players to the league. [[7v7|Prolander]] was the main format until the first season of [[Highlander]] was announced in July of 2018. The league started to become more and more popular, eventually becoming the premier North American Highlander league. Finally, RGL's [[6v6]] league was introduced in late 2019 after the discontinuation of [[ESEA]]'s TF2 leagues. | A number of figures in the [[Highlander]] community were playing with the idea of having a class limit of 1 in [[6v6]] to force the usage of situational classes in competitive.

RGL traditionally runs three seasons a year in the [[Highlander]] and [[6v6]] formats, with cups ran typically between seasons that are used to either bring in new players with Newbie Cups, test out new maps with Map Cups, or have other cups such as the [[No_Restriction_6v6|No Restriction 6s]] [https://rgl.gg/?a=1676&r=60 Chucklenuts Cup]. Each season generally runs through the Spring, Summer, and Fall. | RGL traditionally runs three seasons a year in the [[Highlander]] and [[6v6]] formats, with cups ran typically between seasons that are used to either bring in new players with Newbie Cups, test out new maps with Map Cups, or have other cups such as the [[No_Restriction_6v6|No Restriction 6s]] [https://rgl.gg/?a=1676&r=60 Chucklenuts Cup].
