TFTV Twitch Emotes

So I've taken up the task of creating TFTV's new twitch emotes and I need some input--

Hypothetically let's say we're allowed two new emotes, what would you like to see as viable staple emotes for the channel? What emotes would you like to see as, let's say, stretch goals?

We've had some talk about like, and AIRSHOT emote, maybe an UBER DROPPED emote

Basically we want to refresh our current emote library with something new and relevant to the community today--

Hit me with your best shot guys, lemme see what you can think of B)

Something just with the word "down" would be really useful, since people could easily put classes or players in front of it.

I think emotes using recognizable player faces would be fun to spam. Admirable doing the PogChamp face is definitely my favorite idea so far because I would actually want to use a funny emote like that all the time. Tyrone doing the Kreygasm face or something would also be pretty fun

It was discussed within the tftv team that while player faces are fun, they can become instantly irrelevant if the player drops from the scene. You'd also need to consider newer viewers who would probably sub if they could understand what the emotes are actually about.

I definitely see what you guys mean and I agree that is a concern, but how often would the emotes really need to be updated? That set of emotes was created a few years ago if I'm not mistaken, and several of those guys are still very relevant players, and even if they aren't, I could still see myself and others using them if the face/emote itself was funny enough. Like seanbud for example. Even if seanbud isn't still an active invite player, I would still use his emote if it was a very funny or widely applicable face he was making (although that might be partly because of the seanbud meme)

I think the real issue with those emotes was the lack of variety. Each one was basically just the googly eyes, which would've been funny if it was just 1 of them as opposed to all 9. Also none of them had a distinct emotion or reaction, so you never really knew when to use them. But I think most people (myself included) definitely prefer to use emotes that show some sort of emotion or reaction, as opposed to a symbol or word or phrase that just relates to the game. It's always funnier and just gets more usage in general as it applies to more situations.

Those kinds of emotes are the ones that would definitely incentivize me to subscribe personally, but I can definitely see where you guys are coming from with the longevity problem
