A rivalry occurs when a dispute arises between two or more clans. Historically, a rivalry would involve disputes outside of the game (such as on fansites and clan forums) and occasional engagements during events such as PK trips, but could be resolved by an official war. However this trend has since fallen out of favour and most modern rivalries generally involve numerous PKRIs with no clear means of resolution.
A crashwar is the most intense form of rivalry, in which a clan will attempt to constantly disrupt all of the enemy's PvP events. Dishonourable actions such as spying and leaking of sensitive clan information are commonplace in almost all modern rivalries.
Current Rivalries
WG has attempted to remain neutral in recent years and avoid any serious rivalries or political drama.
Nothing Left
Nothing Left is a clan founded by a group of former WG members who were removed from the clan after conspiring to start a mass-leave in early 2019. A rivalry between the clans was considered inevitable, and several skirmishes within the Revenant Caves and arguments on social media occured over the following months. Both clans sent spies to each other to relay intelligence, and leaks of private Discord text and voice chat were common from both sides. NL would win the majority of engagements in-game, though WG is known to have occasional successful victories over them.
In late 2019, WG took the approach of "ignoring" NL - ceasing publication of propaganda and interaction with NL on social media, and making immediate retreats during in-game engagements so as not to provide the enemy with action. As a result, the rivalry's intensity and hostilities have decreased substantially, though the two clans remain enemies.
