pso-matchmaker is a Discord bot initially developped for the game Pro Soccer Online.
You are free to fork it and use it for your own purpose, by adapting some of the text content in the code.
The purpose of this bot is to help players looking for competitive games to find matches and build up their own team. Use the /help command to see a list of useful commands and how to use the bot.
pso-matchmaker implements an Elo ranking system that rates both teams and players depending on their match results.
The ratings are region-specific (5 regions exist so far: Europe, North America, South America, East Asia and Oceania).
You can display the teams and players leaderboard by using the /leaderboard command.
To see your own stats, use the /player_stats command.
Every game mode supports ranked mode (read Game modes section for more information). However, only the official community discords are allowed to create a ranked line-up.

If you want pso-matchmaker to automatically search for a match that is matching your team level, you can enable the auto-matchmaking feature when you create your line-up (active by default, and only available for the Team mode).
Once a match has been found, a message is sent in both the channel and each player DM.

pso-matchmaker lets you create your own team (wether it is competitive, a group of friends or a community !), and then manage it with many game modes and options.
The 2 most important things to understand are:
- 1 Discord Server (Guild) = 1 Team
- 1 Discord Channel = 1 Line-up
A Team is made of 1 or multiple line-ups.
To create your team, invite pso-matchmaker on your discord, then use /register_team command.
To create a new line-up, use /setup_lineup, /setup_mix or /setup_mix_captains commands depending on the game mode you want to play with this line-up (read Game modes section for more information)
Once you create your team, you can use the /team_manage command to edit various information.
(Example of team management)
There are 3 different game modes available !
Note: At any time, if you want to display and interact with the line-up, you can use the /status command.
The most interesting and competitive game mode is the team mode.
To use this mode, you need to setup a channel with the /setup_lineup command.
The team mode let you select a position and group up with your teamates, then either pick a team/mix to challenge by clicking the Challenge button, or simply click on Search and let pso-matchmaker find a match for you.
(Example of a team line-up)
This game mode brings up a Red Team and a Blue Team in the same channel.
To use this mode, you need to setup a channel with the /setup_mix command.
This is very interesting if you have a community discord server and want people to play against each other.
When you create a mix line-up, you have an option called allow_teams which, if set to true, allow team line-ups to face the Red Team of the mix !
(Example of a mix line-up)
This game mode brings up a single queue that players can join in. Once enough players have joined the queue, a draft starts and 2 captains are chosent to pick there players for there team.
