Some rivalries are made, this one is being earned. Detroit Outlaws and New York Phantoms have met 3 times and the wins keep splitting, each game raising the stakes for the next.
Familiarity has bred edge. Both teams know each other's sets, tendencies, and pressure points, which is exactly why every meeting comes down to who executes late and who blinks first.
The next chapter won't just be another game on the schedule - it's a chance for one side to finally take control of a series that has refused to tilt.
