Hey everyone!

I’ve just released a new playable web game called Collegiate Hero Circuit: Esports Manager, and I’m looking for players to jump in and share their thoughts!

 About the Game:

Collegiate Hero Circuit is a turn-based collegiate esports management sim playable right in your browser. Take the helm of a varsity hero-shooter program: manage a strict 1-2-2 hero shooter lineup, sign campus walk-ons or bid scholarships on top recruits, hire coaching staffs and Graduate Assistants, and counter rival strategies across an evolving 14-team circuit to win the State Championship.

 How to Participate:

• No downloads needed: Click Run Game above to play directly in your browser.
• Run through 3 seasons if possible (or how every many you can).
• What needs to be expanded upon or simplified?
  
• Drop your thoughts in the comments below!

Thank You!!

Take the helm of a varsity esports program and lead your squad from conference underdogs to State Champions.

Collegiate Hero Circuit is a fast-paced, turn-based browser management sim where you step into the role of a collegiate esports director. Build an elite 1-2-2 lineup, navigate blind scholarship auctions, recruit year-round campus walk-ons, manage coaching staffs, and adapt your playbook to an evolving tactical meta.

What to Expect:

• Strict 1-2-2 Roster Management: Lock in 1 Tank, 2 DPS, and 2 Supports, manage bench reserves, and preserve eligibility with redshirts.
• Full Coaching Hierarchy: Appoint a Head Coach (10-year max tenure) and recruit graduating seniors as 2-year Graduate Assistant (GA) position coaches to boost role performance.
• The Tactical Triangle: Counter opponents using Poke > Brawl > Dive (+18% advantage)—run Poke straight into Dive, and you will get punished.
• Dynamic, Non-Mirror Balance Engine: Dominant playstyles receive seasonal nerfs, while struggling comps get buffed based on authentic cross-style win rates.
• 14-Team Dual-Conference Circuit: Battle through an 8-game schedule in the Apex Conference, survive cross-conference clashes, and fight through the postseason for the State Championship Super Clash and All-Circuit MVP honors.

Play directly in your browser—no install required!
