I still maintain the actually interesting "enhanced games" would've been to see who could cheat the best. Not dope, cheat. Who can fix the games? Who's the best blackmailers, bribers and riggers? Who's the most skullduggerous? I wanna see two teams where every player is trying to throw the game in a very specific fashion and then the judges punish them for weird stuff.
There might have to be a second layer of judges, and if you mess with them you get put in a hole.

That's called normal professional sports

I want a version where it's allowed and assumed as part of the game.

No, not really. But it still wouldn't be allowed within the rules of the game. There just wouldn't be a wider legal framework discouraging it
