Welcome to RivalFantasy. Rival Fantasy has three exciting offerings for the MLB season: Challenges, Fantasy Bingo, and Fantasybook.
Challenge your Friends at Rival Fantasy Today >
Traditional Challenges present a ‘who will score more fantasy points’ proposition between two pre-selected players. If you don’t like the options presented, simply tap skip challenge for a new pairing. Social Challenges take this concept to the next level and provide a unique experience for fantasy players. Simply tap the social button, and fantasy gamers can create their own Challenges where you are in control of the two options. Create a Challenge, pick a side, and invite a friend (or rival) to accept the other side of the Challenge. You set the players involved and the pot. The winner takes home the prize, as well as bragging rights.
Challenges have always been one of the most exciting offerings at Rival Fantasy, but one of our favorite parts of the Challenges is the ability to invite friends to accept the other side of a challenge. Once you set up your challenge by picking two players and a challenge amount, you will be given the opportunity to send the challenge to any of your friends (or rivals) as long as they are users on Rival Fantasy. This is perfect for those rivalries that you want to settle or the side bet you and a pal want to make on a given matchup. The challenge I created for today is Francisco Lindor vs. Bo Bichette.
Fantasy Bingo 2.0 is here! Rival Fantasy has revamped its fantasy bingo game. Users now have the option of building their own lineup instead of receiving a predetermined lineup. This allows for greater control and hopefully increased winnings for fantasy gamers. You will choose a lineup of three pitchers, two infielders, two outfielders, and two flex. This, of course, has to be done before you see your bingo card, so simply selecting what one perceives to be the top active players may not always result in a win. Once you choose your lineup, you can purchase anywhere from one to 100 bingo cards. Each card will have randomly generated achievements such as caught stealing, reached on error, less than three hits allowed, one hit plus one walk, one triple, and more. What makes it more challenging is that these achievements are position specific. This means sticking with one position at infield and outfield may prove beneficial.
Fantasybook offers over/under selections for a combination of two to five fantasy point props. Two correct selections offers a 2.5x multiplier, three correct selections offers a 5x multiplier, four correct selections offers a 7.5x multiplier, and finally, five correct selections offers a 10x multiplier. You can even combine sports.

Fantasy Bingo
My Fantasy Bingo lineup for today is as follows: Kodai Senga, Kenta Maeda, Chris Bassitt, Elly De La Cruz, Bo Bichette, Francisco Lindor, Fernando Tatis Jr., Ronald Acuna Jr., and Josh Naylor. I decided to purchase five bingo cards for the day so as to increase the possibility that I end the day in the money. After seeing my bingo cards, I realized that rostering Josh Naylor was a potential mistake. While he is a good player and one of the hottest hitters in fantasy over the past month, adding him to my lineup introduced a bunch of first baseman squares that only he will be eligible to achieve. In the future, I will aim to roster three shortstops and three right fielders.
I ended up with some challenging squares, including three doubles, a one hit, one walk, and one steal, and a three home run achievement, all on the same card for a first baseman. Other challenging achievements include three or more walks, reached on error, hit by pitch, ground into double play, more than three walks, more than three steals, more than two grand slams, and more than five RBI.
Season Long is coming
If you think Rival Fantasy is great now, it’s about to get even better. Rival Fantasy is launching a season-long product in time for the upcoming NFL season. In-depth details are not yet available, but having your home league(s) next to the Challenges, FantasyBook, and Bingo games should make for some exciting ways to play fantasy football this season. We will provide an update when there is more information to share. I am very intrigued to see what Rival Fantasy has in store for us.
