History
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 in the last minute. Sigafoo would later create RGL 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 players to the league. Prolander was the main format until Highlander was announced in July of 2018. The league started to become more and more popular becoming the designated North American Highlander league. After the discontinuation of ESEA's 6v6 league, RGL made their own league for 6s in later 2019. RGL is currently the premier North American league for competitive 6v6 with RGL on its 7th season.
Ruleset
In pick and ban Prolander, each team bans 3 weapons and picks 3 weapons that can't be banned. The bans affect both teams.

Format
RGL traditionally runs three seasons a year in the 7v7, Highlander, and 6v6 formats. Each season generally starts in the Summer, Spring, and Winter. Teams are placed into skill divisions based on the combined experience on the roster. During the regular season, teams will play against opponents with a similar rank win/loss streak. For the playoffs, the Top 4, Top 6, Top 8, or Top 16 teams in a division are placed into a title bracket. All divisions play in a single-elimination bracket, with Highlander using a Gauntlet System for its Invite Division. All playoff matches are played in a Best of 3 format.
Regular season matches are played on single maps, in 2 halves. Depending on the game type, the win conditions differ:
- On King of the Hill maps, the first half of the map ends only when one team wins 2 rounds. The second half ends if the other team wins 2 rounds or when one team wins their 4th cumulative round.
- Attack/Defend and Payload maps are played as best of 3 stopwatch rounds. Teams alternate between attacking and defending every round, and each team defends once in a half. The round is won by whichever team captures the most points the fastest.
Highlander
RGL currently only supports North America (NA) for the Highlander Format.
