Emotes are the only form of communication in battle or spectating. Players can edit an Emote deck by clicking on the “Personalize” button next to the “Battle Deck” button in the Cards section of the main menu. Up to 8 Emotes can be included, and these Emotes will be the most immediately accessible out of the player's collection during a battle.
Emotes can be accessed by tapping the chat bubble at the bottom left hand side of the player's screen when playing or when spectating a battle. Emotes not included in the player's Emote deck can still be accessed via a white arrow on the right hand side of the screen. When used by an in-game player, an Emote will make one sound along with a short animation that will last for a few seconds; when used by a spectator, a smaller Emote will appear on a side but without the sound.
Players can also send Emotes to their Clan by tapping the smiley face bubble next to the chat bubble. Clan mates can hear the sound and see the animation of the Emote sent by tapping on it.
When first starting the game, players get access to the 4 king Emotes. Over time, additional options have become available to players, like different Emote packs that contain Emotes along with resources and Tokens which can be purchased in the Shop for real money. The Shop also has an "Emotes" section where 3 random, non-Legendary Emotes appear daily and can be bought for 250 Gems each. Some Emotes can only be obtained through Special Challenges, within Pass Royale rewards, or via other events. Certain non-Legendary Emotes are exclusive for a limited time upon release, meaning they will not appear in the Shop's "Emotes" section until the specified period of time has passed.
