esports

Esports data — Dota 2 (OpenDota) and League of Legends esports (Leaguepedia). Pro matches, tournaments, teams, and structured LoL competitive data. Use when: user asks about Dota 2 pro matches/teams/leagues, or LoL esports tournaments/rosters/results. Don't use when: user asks about esports betting/odds — use the `kalshi` (get_esports_odds) or `polymarket` (get_esports_events) skills (no keyless bookmaker-odds source exists). Don't use for non-Dota/LoL titles (only Dota 2 and LoL are covered).

Esports Data

Keyless, public sources. No API key, no signup.

  • Dota 2 → OpenDota (api.opendota.com). Real JSON. Free tier ~60 req/min.
  • League of Legends esports → Leaguepedia Cargo (lol.fandom.com). Structured

rows. CC-BY-SA — attribute Leaguepedia when you reuse the data.

CRITICAL

  • Dota 2 only for match/team/league data (OpenDota). LoL uses Leaguepedia Cargo.
  • Leaguepedia is aggressively rate-limited. The throttle comes back as an

in-body error (Leaguepedia API error: ...) on an HTTP 200 — not a 4xx. Results are cached ~30 min; don't hammer it.

  • No odds here. Bookmaker odds for esports are not available keyless. For

implied-probability signals, use kalshi getesportsodds --game=cs2 or polymarket getesportsevents.

  • Personal use. Third-party ToS apply (OpenDota MIT; Leaguepedia CC-BY-SA).

Quick Start

CLI:

sports-skills esports get_pro_matches --limit=10
sports-skills esports get_pro_teams --limit=10
sports-skills esports get_leagues --tier=premium
sports-skills esports get_lol_tournaments --region=Korea --limit=5
sports-skills esports lol_cargo_query --tables=Teams --fields=Name,Region --limit=5

Python:

from sports_skills import esports

esports.get_pro_matches(limit=10)
esports.get_lol_tournaments(region="Brazil")

Commands

Command Description
getpromatches Recent Dota 2 professional matches (OpenDota)
get_leagues Dota 2 leagues/tournaments, filter by tier (OpenDota)
getproteams Top Dota 2 teams by rating (OpenDota)
get_match Detailed Dota 2 match by id (OpenDota)
getloltournaments Recent LoL esports tournaments (Leaguepedia)
lolcargoquery Raw Leaguepedia Cargo query (any table/fields)

Leaguepedia Cargo reference

lolcargoquery needs tables + fields. Common tables (fields vary — verify with a small query first): Tournaments (Name, DateStart, DateEnd, League, Region, Prizepool), MatchSchedule (Team1, Team2, Winner, DateTime_UTC, BestOf), ScoreboardGames, Players, Teams. Full schema: <https://lol.fandom.com/wiki/Special:CargoTables>;.

Troubleshooting

  • Leaguepedia API error: You've exceeded your rate limit → you're being

throttled. Wait and retry; the connector caches for ~30 min to help.

  • Empty matches/teams from OpenDota → transient; OpenDota is volunteer-run

best-effort infra with no SLA. Retry.
