Phone’s kiss taunt isn’t so friendly as she expresses it in an arrogant manner.
All the taunts coming from Toby are adorable and hilarious. You can’t get mad at those.

Imagine if you’re being killed over and over and over by a little penguin a quarter of your size. Now imagine he tells you that you can do it. You’re right I can do it. I can rip the little flippers off of his stun locking body!
But yeah, it’s so sincere it feels worse than if it was sarcastic because it’s belittling

I always thought phobe’s kiss was pretty snarky personally. I’m surprised Rath doesn’t have one honoring a foe
Yep, that’s accurate. In the right (wrong) frame of mind, you could easily take it as "Love you! I mean, your corpse that I’m riding all the way to Worthy of Song!"
And trah, you’d think Rath would have one. He had great ones anyways though, no room for honor
After 600h of gameplay I think all the taunts induce rage in pvp. So I tend to not taunt at all unless I get taunted first. Nobody likes to get killed and then “oh, hey, a kiss for you… or oh hey, look at my cigar…, or oh hey, look at my finger in my eye”. ^^
But I find them funny in different situations, like - while waiting for a match to start, after killing a boss or sentry, or after winning a match.
But if you taunt after every kill, this is just BM and doesn’t add anything good to a game.

True to Point, but after a highly contested kill, a respectful bow from Miko or a salute from Ernest makes me smile

I think Galilea should have a taunt corresponding her dramatic reactions to kills, like kneeling and punching a ground while gurgling “I did it gain, when will it stop”. One could not be angry about her taunting that way.
BTW She actually thanks for being slayed, cute.
PS Personally I’m not a big fan of one taunt for all ocasions, I’d see it more like a set of Bb specific taunts, ti separate taunt for aeach and every Bb one kills. Fi:
I kill Miko - I smash some mushrooms on a grass
I kill Montana - I say it’s all gonna be OK, and he can stop crying
I kill Benedict - I parody his taunt…
I kill Kleese, …I stroke his cat

That would be a taunt I would actually pay money for.

Question: what do you do when a Miko or Ambra sits there healing you? I typically taunt if it’s a fast one (mainly Thorn) or for almost every dituation, I just jump up and down and hope they understand
Hehe, yeah, when Miko heals me and we are at a safe distance from all the enemies I sometimes do a taunt if it’s funny for that situation. Like the one Boldur has where he swings his ass and then Miko responds with a head shake imitation ^^

This is a very good idea. Whiskey Foxtrot’s Tea Ceremony doesn’t exactly scream “good game” at me.

I usually only taunt if I win a ditto against someone or kill someone being extremely greedy, like an Oscar Mike that chased me all the way to the back sentry from mid (past first sentry) when I was low health, (or Pendles basically any time).
Phoebe’s conductor taunt is decently respectful?

Good idea. I’m thinking of one that has you keel over like you were winded from the fight and maybe give like a thumbs up or even have a line that said “good fight” or something along those lines
If I really dislike the enemy I taunt TWICE. and yes sometimes you are on their screen enough to do 2 taunts( if they are the quick ones)

I only Taunt when someone taunts me first. It’s not that it angered or hurt me in any way, I just like to do karma on them. I then continue to taunt them on every kill. They normally get really angry. You constantly see them trying to kill me to taunt me again even if they die during the process or put themselves in vulnerable spots. When they fail to do so, I normally get an insult through personal message lol
Taunts can also be used as a good battle strategy. Some players tend to get so mad after getting taunted that they lose control and forget about team coordination. They change their primary focus to just killing that specific player that taunt them… making them very easy to kill and putting their whole team at a disadvantage.

One of my normal team mates is normally the one to lose control, extremely effective tactic to my detriment
Speaking of Karma, I was in a game playing with a friend and 3 randoms. One of our randoms was killed and taunted so my friend ran up and avenged him while he was being taunted. Then he taunted the person he killed only to be killed by Orendi. Then Orendi taunted him but didn’t realize I was standing right next to him and I killed her and taunted her. At this point too many people were dead and I got away with it but the moral is karma is a bitch.

Lol that happened to me once. Way back when I was with my premade team, my friends used to taunt back when one of us got taunted. I remember a match where one of my friend died and the enemy taunt, my other friend killed him and proceeded to taunt… The chain went on until 4 members from both sides were killed because of taunting back to back. One enemy and I were alive at the end. I ended up dying; That single enemy destroyed our first sentry with double thralls because I couldn’t focus from all the laughing I was having.
