Thoughts on adding Emotes to BG’s?

I feel like they’ll get turned into another toxic mechanic- hopefully you won’t be able to spam them and they aren’t overtly bad either

Just give us a private chat with the opponent and remove any censoring. It will be easier

Yeah cuz that won’t be worse than emotes

just gonna make bgs toxic. I love Cat's emote designs, but emotes in general make competition toxic. I dislike it.

I didn’t make these : P

Could be useful. I've wanted some kind of way to interact just to say "Good win.", or "That was close.".

seems like a waste of time and money when there are so many issues with BGs as is.

Coppin

So many areas to improve, to add a useless aspect that may make BGs toxic and at the same time potencially buggy...

Something useless to add more stress to the servers and cause more lag. Can't wait

A bad idea in poorly designed content.....

Gonna close this down because there is a lot of misinformation and misunderstandings going on.

A Social Designer is a position at a Game Studio whose role is to work on things like this, and introducing Emotes neither takes away from the work being done elsewhere or bugs being fixed.

If you don't like them, you don't have to use them or try and collect them.
