What 🤺 means
🤺 has a literal use for fencing, the Olympics and sword fights, but in everyday chat it is mostly playful. People send it to mean "bring it on", "en garde" or "I am ready for this debate". It is lighter and more joking than 😤 or 👊, and it reads as a friendly challenge rather than real anger. Sports fans use it before a big match, and friends use it when they are about to argue over something small. Gamers sometimes use it for sword-fighting characters or duels.
