Rioter's Need to Have Avatars

It's just much friendlier to see a familiar face, you know?

A lot of us like to associate people from their avatars. Ironstylus being the crazy parrot guy, Morello who got Anivia ransom'd in the great armored bear war, Zileas i just love seeing that old Annie icon for some reason. We see those avatars and it just speaks more to us than their names the moment we see them.

It's just a thought. I've seen a lot of Rioters here, but they all seem to use a generic Riot avatar at this point.

Oh, man, yeah. Parrot's not a parrot; the world is coming to an end!

I do think they should all have the riot fist next to their name, but the pop-up should be their avatars.

Maybe let them have their forum avatars, with the Riot fist next to it? That way there's no confusion.

Agreed on this. In-game summoner icons are all well and good, but one of the great things about GD is that Rioters have a totally unique identifier that they get to choose and display.
