The Top 10 Ugliest Skins in Esports
Ойындар
From a slightly different colored jacket to racing stripes on a rocket launcher, capital G gamers are always willing to shell out some cash for some nice skins. But just because they’re costly doesn’t mean that they are all worth the money. In fact, some of these premium cosmetics have us wondering why they were even made at all.
Which is why today we’re going to count down the Top 10 Ugliest Skins in esports.

I have to admit everyone hated the dragonskins when they came out but now they have gotten some sort of cult following and now everyone wants them or at least the Vandal skin some even want a 2.0 of the skins. I personally like the Vandal and i don't think the skins are ugly just more of an acquired taste lol.

it is actually weird, the skin itself is not that good compared to other premium skins, the only thing that players used it, is because of the sound and feeling when you fire it. When you are playing you are not that focus on your gun but the enemy so that is why players love it, the sound and feeling when you shoot it. It feels powerful, that bass sound as you spray it. Same with the op. But let us be honest, would you use that gun without the effects? VFX and SFX? If you dont upgrade prime, glitchpop, origin, sovereign or reaver vandal. They are still good looking and still a premium style skin.

I’m shocked about how elderflame was ranked first. I believe it is one of the better skin bundles if disregarding the high price. Many European valorant teams and players dominate with these weapon skins too.

This is a bad top 10 list, most of the skins are fine IMO
I low key love that last skin it’s so funny and u don’t see anything like that in any other games, quite esperimental
Bad skins are great markting tools, most of this games have random stuff you can open, and geting a cool skin just feels great because u could get a bad one.
idk man, elderflame has a very weird animation when u pull out the elderflame skin. for me the weirdly moving animation is what made it intresting. my oni phantom didnt even have the different animation when i reload or pulling it out
#10 is spot on accurate.. thank you
Honestly, i got the sidewinder variant for free from the 1 free pack from outbreak, so that skin is pog to me
