a little icon for almost 4$ a piece. considering this took somone maybe 1 or 2 hours to doodle up, isnt this a bit dumb?

Most likely yes. And I believe they are too expensive (costing the same as a tier one champion is insane imo).

Thankfully I haven’t seen any that I’m really willing to waste RP on (even the Poppy ones). But for some reason there are no Sion emotes.

Like...seriously how are there no Sion emotes?

there will be most likely one for every champion eventually.

Meanwhile some champions already have several...some of which Sion would be perfect for.

I'm waiting for unlocked emote nad/or icons for max mastery on champions. Well I'm hoping for it at least.

i guess there will always be a few people who throw some spare rp at them. but theyre still at half of a price of a skin. which is kindof crazy in the first place, that a single skin sells for 10 bucks and more, when entire games are sold for 20 to 40 bucks.

Yep

I buy all the poro ones and use them...a lot.

I think I spent like 50k BE on the poro tossing blue shards like Uncle Scrooge in his moneybin.

well. thats different. if you have all the champions in the game, blue essence isnt really worth anything.

i had 300k essence when the shop rolled around. so yea. back to 100k again, and i stopped opening level up capsules since they dont really contain anything thats useful.

Yes, I buy them, but only the emotes of me or my puppies :3. Surely you must have the emote of you, no?

it will drop from a box eventually. i rather buy a skin for my favourite champion with the rp, than wasting it on an emote. unless theyre giving it away for 50 rp or something like that, i really feel its a ripoff.

Final Spark LuxMar 27, 20181 votes

If you wanna talk about feeling like you got ripped off, imagine how I felt after buying the puppy wards / icons. ;_;

######I'd do it again though...it was necessary D:

Cowgirl EdMar 27, 20181 votes

op why do you try to reason with these zombies in your thread? these things should be available for like 5k blue essence AT BEST

ElixorsMar 27, 20181 votes

I use them whenever I get them from chests :3. I don't know if I would spend any rp on them unless I had some extra left over.

i have 9 emotes. I have bought 0 of them.

yea, but you only get the shitty ones for free, dont you? like what the hell is the project emote? what emotion are you expressing with that?

the only one im really using are the thumbs up (mostly sarcastic) and the braum cookie.

redniwediSMar 27, 20181 votes

I got one with some leftover RP, but don't intend on buying any others.

Dead flag bluesMar 27, 20181 votes

I bought the dab because it's funny as hell, and the "?" blitzcrank with the leftovers RP

Hexs FortuneMar 27, 20181 votes

I bought a few that either made me laugh or whos champs I resonated with

The smiling braum + velkoz because I like the champs

The xayah and dab penguin because they made me laugh a couple times in game

A funny MF emote would hit both of my criteria

SaltyToplaneGoatMar 27, 20181 votes

No. Absolutely overpriced. The only thing I am willing to pay for is actual content, by Riot stopped delivering on that years ago...

2Charmnot2CharmMar 28, 20181 votes

Only the dab emote full price, if i buy any other it's cause it's on sale.

QueenpinMar 28, 20181 votes

Why buy anything (for yourself) now that chests exist?

because chests drop a lot of random garbage. like emotes.

QueenpinMar 28, 20181 votes

I've never gotten an emote from chest. I've only got ever gotten only skins, ward skins and champion shards. Though even if my chests did drop emotes I still wouldn't buy anything because eventually I'd get whatever I want for free, from a chest.
