It's pretty common for viewers to want just a single emote of a partner that they might not have any desire to watch, or they don't have enough money to support 5 partners. Allow people to buy 5 emotes / month (maybe add tiers) but award streamers $.50 / month per account that's purchased their emote. 50% goes back to twitch, smaller partners can thrive with some good emotes, and viewers aren't strained to over/under support. Everyone wins.
