"King Of The Hill"
In the RCL, teams that secure a spot in the Monthly Finals will be directly qualified to the following season's challenge phase.
They will be declared King of the Hill (KOH).
In this first season, as there are no established KOH yet, there is no directly qualified team to the challenge phase.
"Challenge System"
Teams that qualify through the Open Qualifiers will be called Challengers.
Challengers will be given the privilege of selecting their opponents from the King of the Hill.
Priority on team selection will be based on the placement during the Open Qualifiers.
In this first season, as there are no established KOH yet, the qualified teams from the two open qualifiers will compete to form the first KOH!
