Can Anyone confirm or deny if the Royal League has been removed following the patch?

A lot of people are saying it has gone, but a few are saying it isnt being run the first season, but will be back in season 2 onwards.

Anyone seen this?

It's been removed from that database in patch 8.01 I'm afraid and doesn't re-appear later on.

Irl It's not on this year definitely, mainly due to poor attendances and poor viewing figures on tv. I heard somewhere that they couldn't get it televised this year because no tv companies wanted it, I'm assuming that was the major factor in it being canceled.

It doesn't help when you are in the Norwegian closed season and still in Europe (CL/UEFA) and no other competitive matches, just friendlies!

It seems that the teams don't take it seriously as well...

Interestingly, all the winners are from Denmark, whose league is different in schedule from the other two countries.
