    Parameters
    ----------
    leagues : string or iterable, optional
        IDs of Leagues to include.
    seasons : string, int or list, optional
        Seasons to include. Supports multiple formats.

    proxy : 'tor' or or dict or list(dict) or callable, optional
        Use a proxy to hide your IP address. Valid options are:
            - "tor": Uses the Tor network. Tor should be running in
              the background on port 9050.
            - dict: A dictionary with the proxy to use. The dict should be
              a mapping of supported protocols to proxy addresses. For example::

                  {
                      'http': 'http://10.10.1.10:3128',

            - list(dict): A list of proxies to choose from. A different proxy will
              be selected from this list after failed requests, allowing rotating
              proxies.
            - callable: A function that returns a valid proxy. This function will
              be called after failed requests, allowing rotating proxies.
