## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability esports-upcoming-matches-feed-lol-valorant-dota-2-96dac506
```

Example prompt: Show me all upcoming professional Valorant matches in the next 24 hours — I need the team names, start times, tournament, and Twitch stream links for each one.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a forward-looking schedule of professional esports matches across LoL, Valorant, or Dota 2, especially when Twitch stream links and tournament context are needed. Prefer this over general sports APIs when esports-specific data (game title, pro team names, streaming links) is required. Choose sibling endpoints for live matches or historical results.
