Not a huge fan of emotes becoming the next toxic mastery spam... But what are your thoughts?

Edit: From the dev emote introduction, don't want to take riots words out of context now would we "We don’t want these to be** too tilting**. Since the emotes are meant for broad expression, it’s easy to imagine the system fueling rampant BM. Our hope is that emotes encourage more of the fun kind of smack talk, and less of the actually-upsetting chat that can show up sometimes." Source

I agree, Riot is just making meme's out of these emotes. This encourages Toxity, though I remember when they said that they don't want this to be an abusing feature to tilt people but that's all that these emotes are and are becoming even more.

i've never really had a problem with emotes so far (not counting the mastery 7 Zoe spam)

I am 100% getting the Ashe one and it’s never leaving my emote wheel
