Oncoming Fist

A closed fist facing directly forward, as if coming toward the viewer.

The 👊 Oncoming Fist emoji is commonly used to represent fist bumps, strength, impact, or solidarity. It mimics the motion of a friendly punch or a punch thrown in a fight, depending on the context.

In positive settings, it’s used to signal support, teamwork, respect, or “you got this” energy. In more aggressive or sarcastic contexts, it might express frustration, a challenge, or mock aggression.

Among younger users, it's often used in a celebratory or hype-driven way (“let’s go 👊”). When paired with ✊ or ✌️, it can emphasize connection or empowerment.
