Taliyah Emote Checklist

Rendering: Check! This piece is very clean and expressive.

Cuteness: Half-check. She is endearing but could be moreso.

Personality: No check. She’d probably sigh in frustration and be melancholy about it.

Overall, a good piece, but too harsh for her ‘soft’ character. Taliyah never gets so openly and fiercely mad as she does in this emote, even during special interactions with Xerath and Azir. I wonder if you could make the emote reflect that without losing expression.

Also, have you thought of making an emote involving the baby deer from her Freljord skin?

While I agree that it's probably not in her character to get outraged, the point of the contest is simply to show off a champion with an intense emotion.

That said, matching the champion and emotion would probably make a better emote. Garen, outraged at injustice. Teemo, laughing at misfortune. Ashe, calling for her team to engage. Hence my point about the out-of-character expression.

Teemo laughing at misfortune isn't actually in character; it's just in line with how the fandom views him. Similar to Yasuo being viewed as an "ez outplayed m7" champion when he's actually a pretty somber dude in lore.

To the contrary, one of Teemo’s most famous lines is, “That’s gotta sting”. Tristana says he walks the fine line between “chipper compatriot and unrepentant killer”. Laughing at misfortune would definitely be in character for him.

Though I don't like her to be always angry. Taliyah I think is still actually really cute even when she's really angry. Also I get that feeling as well sometimes when I try to carry. Also all kill are essentially mine and mine alone. Everyone on my team is 0/4 except that Nunu over there.

Taliyah "You... bastard..."
