Emote

For  Legends of Runeterra, see Emote (Legends of Runeterra). See also: Emoting.

Emotes are expressive images primarily used in  League of Legends and  Teamfight Tactics as cosmetic flares. League emotes typically present Champions and Little Legends with popular expressed emotions. Some emotes are used in-game, while some on social media sites.

Usage

Emotes can be purchased in the store for 350 a piece. During the initial launch, all Emotes were put on sale for 350 (where they originally had a cost of 450). Since patch V8.12 the price of emotes have been lowered from the initially 450 to 350 permanently. A Thumbs Up Emote is freely unlocked to all accounts.

Emotes can be equipped in the player's Collection or from Champion Select. The loadout includes a radial that can hold up to five emotes, as well as slots for Start Game, First Blood, Ace and Win.

Once in-game, you can access the pop-up radial using the assigned hotkey (default: [T]). The Start Game and End Game emotes will trigger automatically.^[1] Players can only trigger a certain number of Emotes, including Champion Mastery Emotes, within a short space of time before having to wait to use another. Champion Mastery is still triggered using its own hotkey.

You can mute Enemy Emotes individually from the Scoreboard, or disable them entirely from Settings.

Former System

The following Emotes were released prior to the implementation of the Emote system (described above). These icons were tied to having specific Summoner icons equipped, their use was limited to the duration of the event in which they were introduced, and they replaced the Champion Mastery flare. Should these Emotes return in the future, they will be incorporated into the new system and will be freely gifted to players who previously earned them. Patch 7.24 reintroduced six of these former Emotes into the new system.
