# Guild Rivalry

**Guild Rivalry** is a gameplay-layer feature that allows guild creators to **declare or truce rivalries** within protocol-native games like *Degen Rivals*. These rivalries add social tension, competitive focus, and strategic depth — and they come with **real economic impact**.

### Rivalry

A **rivalry** is a formal in-game relationship between two guilds. When a rivalry is declared:

* Both guilds are pitted against each other during quests, seasons, or tournaments
* Players in these guilds will earn and burn rewards through head-to-head matchups
* Rivalries are time-bound, and can only be initiated or ended by the **guild creator**
