League of Legends players are not thrilled about the new Champion Mastery Emotes introduced by Riot Games. These emotes are intended to reward players who invest a lot of time and effort into mastering a specific champion to showcase their skills and dedication. However, the reward seems to turn into a kind of punishment instead.

League of Legends: Controversy Surrounding The New Champion Mastery Emotes

While there are a few players who welcome the idea of the new reward and appreciate the opportunity to present their champion mastery in a new way, most players are anything but excited about it. Some have described the emotes as too detailed and overloaded, which they believe distorts the game's character and rather resembles cheap mobile games.

Players have openly exchanged their opinions on platforms like Reddit. Some have expressed their disappointment with the appearance of the new emotes and demanded that the design be simplified or revised. For example, they write:

"You can't be serious lmfao, that is the ugliest sh** they could've come up with. Please just keep the old mastery design and expand on it. This just looks incredibly cheap."

It is important to emphasize that the design of the Champion Mastery Emotes is not yet finalized and may still change. Riot Games has already shown in the past that they listen to the feedback of their players and make adjustments to ensure player satisfaction. It remains to be seen how the discussion about the new emotes will develop and whether further adjustments will be made.
