Title
On domain-specific decision support systems for e-sports strategy games
Abstract
Extensive domain-specific Decision Support Systems (DSS) have been developed for use by commentators and team managers in professional sports. Particularly developed DSS are available in basketball, baseball, and motorsports. E-sports is a burgeoning new field of professional sports, wherein a video game is played as a sport. This paper will develop a set of criteria to measure the capabilities and limitations of DSS in professional sport based on academic descriptions of DSS and the existing applications of DSS to traditional professional sports leagues. These criteria will be applied to the video game StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty, as a popular e-sports title that is representative of the DSS characteristics of e-sports games. Based upon the developed metrics, this paper will propose additions and modifications to the DSS available in StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty, and the e-sports field at large.
