Good Morning,

I'm building a Fantasy Valorant League (like fantasy football, but for professional valorant) and I'm looking for ideas on what people would want to see in a program like that and gage interest.

Right now, I've got a per-match 1v1 system to pit 2 players against eachother, they draft players from each team and gain points based on KDA & Combat Score. I plan to expand on this but right now I just want a working Prototype

I'm working on 3 things

1. Website to draft team and see upcoming matches (finished the API and data pulling, working on frontend)
2. Web browser extension to see realtime stats and updates (This is a bit tricky, training models based on the official valorant streams in python using computervision, but unless I can think of a better way to do this I'll need to train new models for each channel that streams professional valorant)
3. Desktop client in Electron.JS (allows me to embed the twitch stream and customize the layout however I want)

Any thoughts, suggestions or advice would be strongly appreciated, thanks!

Something I’d like to see would be people having to pick 5 players that are all different roles, that would stop people from adding 5 duelists/chambers and actually make it more balanced. Good luck with the work though, the progress is looking solid

This is a bit tricky, but I think I can do it by categorizing players based on their top 3-5 characters, and the pick rate of those characters. I can use that to categorize the players into their "role", but obviously, if a player decides they want to reyna instead of sova today, not much I can do about that.

Really appreciate the feedback though, I'll add that in :)

I'm pretty sure there is already a fantasy vct website that people do.

Personally I would like 2 game modes

1: Group draft where each player can only be drafted once
2: Budget draft where you have a budget to build the best team as possible.

Also what language are you coding the back end in?

Sounds good, keep up the good work, it’s looking sick. I’ll be looking forward to updates and the finished product!

That'd be nice.
The backend is cut into 3 parts,

1. API/Database : GO Lang using Pocketbase
2. Web backend: NodeJS with Vue for website | Nodejs with Cheerio for API calls and data scraping
3. AI for updating stats: Python with a NodeJS frontend

I'd say its 85% JS, 10% Python, 5% Go for the whole backend
