Should Riot implement a new setting to mute taunting?

I find it amazing that you can mute peoples emotes, chat, and teammates pings. I love it. It helps me personally be able to prevent people from antagonizing me to the point of getting so mad I type in chat and just get punished. I think for me personally after muting an enemy or ally for them to just hunt me down and kill me and spam there taunt of some sort whether it be a mastery or laugh. It really does just ruin my experience and make me really mad. It is as if someone just pushes you down then kicks you and laughs at you or makes fun of how weak you are by flexing at you. It would be cool if i could by default have those muted so I never have to see the taunting of the enemy or ally via non chat again. I dunno maybe it makes others happy knowing no matter what they will be forced to see you taunting unless they don't lane against you or die by you. I am here to try and find out if my opinion on this seemingly interesting setting should be implemented or not? (This is my first forum post on here but i think it would make my gaming experience way more fun)

I think it would be rather "easy" to mute other champions' sounds. And yes, laughter spam is annoying.

I'm not sure if there is a way to mute that sort of thing. It's the actual character models, not a flair or anything like emotes/masteries/pings are.

First of all, I want to welcome you to the boards. I hope your intellect can bring up many a interesting discussion in the future.

Second of all, I don't want to say that muting taunts is a bad idea, I'm just not sure it would be able to work. Sounds from the enemy might be able to be remove, but the models animations... I'm not so sure.

Dunno if anyone knew this but, if you mute them it also stop their emotes. I do it all the time when i get an opponent who like to spam that stuff.
