[Gameplay] Empty Emote Wheel Bug

I honestly don't know. This issue has been around for a few patches already and nobody seems to address it - at least, I haven't seen anybody complain.

Quite often, like 1/2 or 1/3 of the times, I stumble upon an annoying bug. My emote wheel would be empty for the whole game. It's as simple as that and I don't believe it requires much explaining. Feel free to comment on this post if you have the same issue. I play a lot of ARAMs lately so I don't know if it also happens on Summoner's Rift; that'd be a maybe, sorry, I don't know.

Happens to me on all of my accounts. I check the emotes after the game, all are loaded on the wheel. Start another game, hit the emote(s) NOTHING.. lol.. Another day/time, it works.. Been happening for the last few weeks.

I’ve been having the same issue, but it just now started to happen as per this patch. I play mostly summoners rift, so it’s not just ARAM. It’s kinda disheartening to be a midlaner and not be able to thank your JG quickly with an emote after a gank, or use emotes at all for that matter. I read that other patches have had the same issue, so I’m curious what’s going on.

Jesus! Will this crap ever get fixed? I'm having this issue since a few weeks already and no one from riot dares giving us a confirmation. I see my client updating every couple of days hoping they'll get their butt working on fixing their shit but still nothing.

I expect nothing and I'm still let down... Smh [zombie-brand-clap]

If Riot doesn't fix this quickly, people will work around broken emotes by just typing them in chat, and then they'll realize that you can do that even for emotes you haven't purchased, and emote sales will crumble.

Has also occurred for me - once. Fixed itself by next match.

Didn't realise I'd miss these things but now I can't thumbs up good behaviour...
