LeagueOfDrafts

A game about drafting in League of Legends. The goal is to guess the winner of a match based on the draft.

Planning to use Riot API to select a random game.

how to run locally

frontend runs via vite from LeagueOfDraft/src

npm run dev

run api locally from api/

uvicorn main:app --reload

TODO

• Get actual random matches from Riot API

• Tailwind CSS

• CSS GRID

• Add user system

  • React Router
  • Add login
  • Add register

• Add database

• Persistent API key

• Options for match selection

  • Select rank
  • Select region
  • Select patch
  • Select queue

• Add more details to match (eg. bans, pickorder..)

  • sort by role

• Add more stats to user

• Add more stats to match (av)

  • [] avg rank of game

bonus ideas

[] - who got most kills [] - who got most deaths

Steps needed

• 1: API key needed to use Riot API - atm daily updates are needed at https://developer.riotgames.com/
• 2: Get "random" matches associated with given rank
• 3: Know the winner of each match, but don't show that to user
• 3b: Show more details of match (eg. bans, pickorder..)
• 4: Determine if user guess is correct/wrong
• 5: Show user stats about guesses
• 6: Store user stats in database (user system + db needed for this step)

Plan

u/bongdong420 - reddit idea

The best way I see to collect matches is to get a list of summonerIDs from each tier/divison using league-v4 then getting their accountIDs using summoner-v4 then getting their match history using match-v4 then using games from their match history.

Riot API suggestion

Match Data The best way to collect a large set of matches is not straightforward. Typically you need code that does this:

Collect a few summoners by hand. Just your own summoner is likely enough, or you could use all challenger players. Get the account IDs of those summoners. Get their match history on the queue type you want (paginate as far as you want to go, or filter by patch). Success! You have a ton of match IDs, from there, you can fetch their timelines or parse the matches however you want. Alternatively, Canisback on the Discord currently hosts a list of matches IDs that you can use to pull summoners from the matches/{matchId} endpoints. These lists are provided for free to the community for use, and may go down or stop being updated at any time.
