I'll work on tweaking the logo and see what I can come up with. Appreciate the feedback and compliments!

Let's move on to expansion team 3, the Indianapolis Thunder:




I'm probably going to change up the colour scheme as I didn't realize until afterwards how close it was to the OKC Thunder colours.

What does it look like if you flip the lightning bolt.  It feels unbalanced right now.

I think it's too "open" for lack of a better term. I think the logo can be tweaked to feel smoother though, I'll see what I can pull together.

Expansion team 5, the Montreal 67s:




Expansion team 6, the Toronto Parliament:

Montreal 67s is a little odd. Quebec doesn’t usually go hard on the mainstream Canadian imagery because a large percentage of the population there aligns more with the French Canadian identity first, and the mainstream Canadian identity second (if at all). I know it gets confusing because the real life hockey team is the Canadiens, but that team’s branding has no mainstream Canadian imagery in it at all.

 

Toronto Parliament is a bit odd too.  A group of owls is called a “parliament,” but in Canada, this term refers to the Canadian capital building, which is in Ottawa. That’d be a really cool concept for a team in Ottawa, but definitely not for a team in Toronto. It’d be like calling a team in New York the White Houses. Makes no sense there.

The small diamonds in Minnesota logo is too cluttering id try removing them entirely

Toronto is the capital of Ontario, where the Provincial Government is. They have their own government buildings.

The 67s is a play off of the Montreal Expos, as is the design of the logo. The Montreal Expo was in 67, so instead of calling the team the expos I went with the year.

Last 2 expansion team reveals before some expansion edits. I truly appreciate all the feedback thus far.

We'll finish off the "2020 Season" with updates and All Star Game graphics.

Cleveland Rock:




Changed the logo to a "classic" guitar body. Added yellow and changed the striping on the away jerseys. Thickened the logo outline.

Indianapolis Thunder:




Changed the logo, tried to make it feel more balanced which I think I accomplished. Moved away from the orange to a red, and adjusted the striping slightly.

Minnesota Monarchs:




Removed the small diamonds from the logo to clean it up, shrunk the accent striping thickness too remove it from feeling so bulky.

2020 All Star Game:




Appreciate all the feedback so far. For the next few "seasons", there will likely only be all star graphics and some minor tweaks that I think I can make on some of the teams so far. I'll also be adding special third jerseys for the "Christmas Day Clash" which will become a yearly tradition in the league.

2021 Season

 

The Philadelphia Stallions get an update on their away jerseys:



A new secondary logo is used so the original isn't lost on the jersey anymore.

For the first time, the league had a Christmas Day game which will be known yearly as the "Christmas Clash." Both teams in this game will be wearing special third jerseys. The 2021 game was the New York Pride visiting the Miami Landsharks:



And finally, the 2021 All Star Game which was also held in Miami, Florida:

On the new Cleveland Rock, I'd try to make the round part of the note line up with where the hole in the guitar would normally be.  Right now, it's just slightly off.  You might not have intended for the note to represent the hole on the guitar, but because it's so close, that's the first thing I thought of, and because it's just slightly off, it looks like it's a mistake.   Overall, though, nice upgrades on the logos.
