og course, the whiney 9 year olds who did the post either didnt chose the best skins, or voted for the content creator skins, like come on bro. cupid accel should have at least gotten top 3, same as gargoyle commander, valentines ranger, xmas farm, lumberjack millitant (its not amazing but doesnt deserve to be at the bottom), cold soldier, valentines scout, cupid crook boss, classic ranger, eclipse mortar shouldve been first, and masqurade warden. feel free to disagree

Something we all noticed is that the content creator skins got GLAZED. The main one that really didn’t deserve first place is the Elite Accelerator. V1 Elite had a "magenta" beam, which highly clashed with the cyan details from the rest of the skin. Elite mentioned in his video that he wanted a black beam. Now, the color black is the ABSENCE OF LIGHT, literally and figuratively. There’s no way the devs are going to give the elite skin a black beam… right? A few days later, they gave the elite skin a black beam. Just what & why? The skin could’ve been perfect with a cyan beam, but with a black beam, it just makes you wonder if the past accelerator skins could’ve had custom beam colors.

All content creator skins but Corso and kinda Isacc are overrated. Corso: Goons look great. Corso self looks well made. Isacc: Unique melee. Eggrypted: Doesn't look good compared to 2nd and 3rd place. Propellars: Out of all the great Ranger skins you choose Propellars... He looks good but not 1st place good. Cupid Ranger is the best (Forgotten), then it's Eclipse. Wikia: Looks generic. To be fair most Engineer skin looks generic. All but Phantom and Grave Digger because of their unique sentries. Sweating: AWFUL SKIN, it is way too generic, to be first. Golden and Phantom are far better. Elite: OVERRATED, Ice Witch, and Vigilante are far better. Conclusion: Never let the community cook ever again. Edit: Corrections

Both it's red laser from the beginning to it's bright orange neons and laser at max level make it at least better than navy accel.
