LAN Schedule (Updated) and Check-in Reminders

https://i.imgur.com/2X5Vod6.png

Check-in Reminders

• On Day 0 (Friday), player and spectator pre-registration, as well as access to PCs, starts at 5:30 PM EDT.
  
• On Days 1 and 2, for all players, please note that check-in time starts at 11 AM EDT. Spectators' check-in begins at 11:30 AM EDT.

Schedule Update

• On Day 0, player and spectator pre-registration has been moved up to 5:30 PM EDT due to Localhost venue demands.
  
• On Day 2, Losers Round 2 (Lower Bracket Finals) has been moved up 30 minutes to 12:30 PM EDT. This reduces the break between LB Finals and Grand Finals by half an hour to address the complaint from players last year that the break was too long.
  
• The structure of the 6s Open Tournament has been updated. All 10 teams will be placed in one division, and teams will play a round-robin for a total of nine matches on Day 1 (Saturday). On Day 2 (Sunday), there will be one final playoff match for all the teams (e.g., 1v2, 2v3, 3v4, etc.).

Seating Chart

Philly 6s LAN Open Tournament

The RGL 6s Philly LAN Open Tournament will take place at LAN and will give non-Invite Playoffs players a chance to play with teammates and friends in person! A maximum of twelve teams will be allowed to participate. Accepted teams will be determined on a first-come-first-serve basis, so sign up as soon as possible with your team of six with your fees paid, if you want to participate. Teams will be assigned a set of six computers at Localhost Philly for the Tournament on Saturday and Sunday.

New LAN Merch: https://merch.rgl.gg/collections/lan-2026-merch

HamiI think there's probably more desire to do it nationally in Europe than regionally in the US/CAN. For Europe you have the national pride element plus the fact that people are probably already friends (or even teammates) with people from their country more frequently. I don't think there's enough motivation or incentive to take away from regular rgl seasons for a poorly motivated regional (or state-based, though idt there are enough people in most states to do that) tournament in NA. Also has to do with the fact that RGL seasons are basically back-to-back-to-back with very little down time/ offseason time, which is generally spent making teams for the next season anyway.

HL might be easier cuz they only play like 3 days a week, idk. It would be fun, but I don't see people wanting to make the time for it

I did host one regionally for US/CAN for RGL once. It was called Region Wars and was for Highlander. Though the way we did this was by splitting up players by region:

• Southwest (US)
  
• Midwest(US)
  
• South (US)
  
• Northeast (US)
  
• Canada
  
• Europe

It could be possible for 6s, but would depend on the interest level and a longer offseason for 6s.
