I hadn't really looked for something similar, but I got curious and searched for some and found... absolutely nothing, at least in the main reading sites I use, so, can you give me a hand? I'm simply looking for a story either original or fanfiction that is about esports, no matter the videogame, it just has to be decently written. Preferably without romance.

Do you want any e-sport related story? Or just with "real game" and not Vrmmorpg game?

In real game :
The king's avatar (sailel already said it, but it fill all criteria for a e-sport novel and it's the top tier of the genre, I don't think you will find any better than this one if you looking only for e-sport.)

In Vrmmorpg with competition in it (can be competition inside the game for territory) :
Overgeared
Rebirth of the thief who roamed the world
Reincarnation of the strongest sword god
Rebirth of the legendary guardian

Ahh, best one should be king's avatar. The other one isn't a novel but a manhwa. This one is a mixture of hunters and esports together. It's called superhuman battlefield.

Eh, I actually saw the movie, and I didn't like it that much, but I think I'll give the novel a chance. Thanks for the other recommendations as well.
I turned Duel Monsters into a MOBA and had a mock tournament at a business conference. I had a side job in the gaming industry for a few years, so I've been to a similar event, but I added my own embellishments.

Five stars

Didn't know a movie existed. I know about the manhua and the anime but never heard about the movie, like all manga/anime adapted into a movie it must be a bad adaptation. The novel include a lot of details but you can watch the anime first if you prefer, their two season with the oav between the two season.

Shangri-La Frontier. The MC is a semi-famous game completionist that enters the scene of E-sports with his childhood buddies.

"My Vampire System" on WebNovel contains a decent amount of both training and competition (including tournaments) in VR and e-games. Warning: novel, while entertaining, suffers from lack of decent editor (considering, that English is not author's first language, you should expect numerous cases of bad wording, etc., etc.).

My vampire system is not really a novel about e-sport or game.
