They've got their names. They've announced their team rosters. They've revealed their logos and colours. Only one thing was missing.

Emojis.

The Overwatch League teams have started picking the emoji that best represents them on Twitter, simply proving that there's an emoji for every situation, even esports.

The Overwatch League starts in January, with exhibition preseason games from December 6

What started as a fan trying to show support for a team turned into a war of emojis on Twitter

It all started when a fan of the Seoul Dynasty said they would be using the tiger emoji in support of the team.

Dynasty's logo is a tiger, the national symbol of South Korea, and the black and gold colours represent royalty. As does the symbol on its head, a stylised version of the character for 'king'.

The Seoul Dynasty Twitter account quickly adopted the logo as their own, and invited the other teams in the League to come forward with theirs.

Florida Mayhem were the first to respond, saying they'd be using the palm tree and bomb emojis in tandem. A perfect fit, as their logo is a bomb whose lit fuse is in the shape of a palm tree.

London Spitfire chose the fighter plane, of course, while San Francisco Shock went with the simple lightning bolt.

Los Angeles Gladiators, whose associated Overwatch hero is Reinhardt, went with the blue shield emoji, accompanied by the hashtag '#ShieldsUP'.

There's no Valkyrie emoji for the Los Angeles Valiant to use, but they went with the winged angel, the next best thing.

The Houston Outlaws have gone with the 'sign of the horns' emoji, representing the longhorn skull which forms their logo.

Shanghai Dragons have been relatively quiet on Twitter so far, but even they chimed in. The dragon combined with the fire emoji was an easy choice for them.

The radioactive symbol was another simple choice for the Philadelphia Fusion.

Now we just have to wait for the New York Excelsior, Dallas Fuel, and Boston Uprising to pick theirs, and we'll have the full set.

It's all fun and games for now, but the action will heat up in the preseason games starting on December 6, and when the Overwatch League begins on January 10.
