Introduction

eSports Manager is a free and open source manager game based on eSports, similar to what is done in the Football Manager series, written in Python 3. In this game, you will take control over an eSports team, deciding which players are going to be playing at each match, making key decisions on the team's strategies, hiring new players, firing old ones, dealing with sponsors and financial issues, getting offers from other teams, trying to qualify for big tournaments, and much more than that.

Initially, we are going to focus on MOBA eSports only, and in the future, we might expand to other eSports, using the same core mechanics.

How the game works

The user will create their own manager character, and then will proceed by choosing which team they want to manage, or he might even want to create a new team from scratch (something like a real Career Mode). The user only needs to use the mouse cursor to interact with the graphical user interface, with all options being displayed on tables, cards, text messages, and visual components. There is no controlling a character up and down with the keyboard or mouse, with all interactions resembling those of famous manager-style games (Football Manager is the main inspiration here).

The user will always have information about its players (overall skill, stamina, injuries etc.), and can always make decisions based on each player's skill level. Before each match, the user will be able to choose which champion he wants each player to play with, according to the player's stats and skills with that specific champion.

When the match starts, there is no visual interaction or simulation. The only thing that will be displayed is a Live Match Commentary, which shows what happens in the match in text format, bringing up relevant info every time something interesting happens in the match.

When the match ends, all the stats are updated and shown, with the victorious team being displayed.

Players might practice in between matches, and the user can also try to find new blood on the SoloQueue/Ladder
