Rivalries Question

Is the only way to develop a rivalry by meeting in the playoffs consistently?

I started with the 2019/20 season. In 2024/25 now. At the beginning of the league I moved Florida to Quebec, Arizona to Houston (Central) and added Seattle (Pacific).

Quebec still shows a potential rivalry with Tampa (exact same as when they were Florida)

Houston has just this season shown a potential with Dallas

Seattle still has no rival and no potential. (They have yet to make the playoffs)


Is this something we might be able to adjust ourselves in a future update?

(6 seasons is probably small sample size, but....



Thanks for any feedback you can provide on this.


This is becoming a very addictive game, excellent work team

I think Jeff mentioned it's something we may look to add as an option in the future. But rivalries are built over time. Playoffs are by far the most important for creating rivalries because...well, it's where teams learn to hate each other. Even when creating them, there was some good back and forth on who are actual rivals or not. Quebec won't automatically fall to Montreal just because. Keep in mind because you moved an existing team they not only have to create the rivalry with Montreal, but replace the existing hard feeling feelings essentially with Tampa.

I can say that I imported a game from FHM 5 and within the first 5 years, I've had 1 main rivalry crop up where a team moved from St. Louis to Washington started hating Columbus, but Columbus didn't view them as a rival still. Most of the other teams in my league had potential rivals but nothing solid yet. Though this is in a custom league with no prior history, so everything was starting from scratch.

Playoffs do build them faster, especially if they play the same team often enough (like a longer series in the playoffs after playing them a lot in the regular season). I think other factors come into play but they're not as noticeable.
