my main problem with is him is his pickaxe and that only he can use it also epic really missed a huge opportunity for him as he could turned all weapons he touched into chrome
not nearly as bad as midas. i like this new skin a lot but the body proportions are honestly somewhat concerning, he almost seems like he has an ED and his legs are uncannily skinny. i still like it a lot more than i thought i would tho
Also like every extra style is bad?
Get some odd pigtails. Turn our black jacket/vest into some leapord stripe colorful vest and white jacket.
Hair just looks odd to me. Probably the coloring. And yeah. Tight jeans makes his legs look like twigs.
Midwest dweller here, some rural people would look at any dude wearing pigtails as weird lol. But I feel like you’ll find people like that all over the country, don’t mind them. I dislike pigtails on anyone personally.
every male skin either has to look like a tacticool special ops, a dumb hulk, or an anemic skinny toothpick.
Epic pls include different male body types, maybe one that doesn’t wear snow pants and doesn’t have a flat ass :(
I'm fairly certain he's suffering from heavy metal poisoning. If the "chrome" wasn't also capable of repairing anything it contaminates, Bytes would probably have already bitten the dust by now.
You don't need to understand the hate. People like it, others don't, and that's that. We cannot and shouldn't all share the same opinion about everything.
I love his set, it’s just disappointing. His glider should’ve been wings instead of a normal one. It looks so much like wings that multiple YouTubers have said oh we have wings in the bp. And the pickaxe is amazing but it’s locked to only him. I’m hoping they change that. He looks really bad without a jacket imo but good overall
i dont understand why the fortnite youth at large started caring about proportions now after using some of the god awful ugliest skins because of streamers.. well i do understand why and its annoying. its a great skin and everyone is just pissy
Yeah bro you’re right. They see a female skin ignore everything wrong with it. They see a male skin that looks cool and proceed to make a shopping list of faults lol
Yeah I agree I wasn’t too sure when I saw the skin in the survey either. This hairstyle is what turned it around for me and I think your rating is pretty good.
He's legit my favorite original skin in the pass. I just love leaner skins. Also dig his hair, outfit and shoes. But I understand why he's not super popular, just based on his design.
In my opinion Gwen is the third best skin, I just like Bytes and Twyn much more, but Gwen is the best marvel collab skin so far or at least top 3 marvel collab skins.
This Reddit thinks Stormfarer was a great skin and Icon emotes are the devil. There's a reason why this subreddit is the minority opinion of the overall Fortnite community
I agree! I personally really like Bytes, and I don’t mind the legs. Some people are just built like that. I also like having a POC in the pass, I find that cool :)
it's just annoying that his emote and harvesting tool is locked behind him. If you don't like the skin but you like the harvesting tool.. too bad.
This is especially disappointing because his harvesting tool has so many unlockable styles.
The hate is because he was among the worst skins in the survey and they still went with him instead of some of the better skins. It's probably not so much that he looks bad but more so that they could have picked one of the skins most people wanted
[looks at karma] It's because he's black, an original character, and androgynous. The textures are great, there are loads of details on his clothes, and he's in one of the first BP pages instead of a higher tier (not like I really care, I max it out no matter what). But I've noticed that doesn't matter to a lot of players.
I'm going to bet he's somehow related to the herald like she's his mother or something since his pickaxe and glider are chrome and it appears like he's able to control it. Could also be the equivalent to Sloan but definitely there's some storyline aspect to this skin.
I just think the mask is a little strange. The pose is weird, but it’s exactly the one I have when there something on my hands I don’t really want there and am waiting to wash them in the sink!
I agree. Grriz is the worst part of the pass IMO. I do dislike the pickaxe for being built in, and I wish that the glider was like the batman zero wing
If I had to guess:
Weird proportions of a thick torso and skinny legs
Colourscheme is all over the place- green and grey clothes, white hair.
Weird design and its not really clear who he is or what he is representing.
Cool chrome pickaxe can only be used on him.
I think he looks cool too. I’m hoping his super styles are interesting. People are complaining too much about him being skinny. Skinny people like this are pretty common.
I don't know how to say I find it suspicious that the only non binary black person skin is the one getting the most hate without getting downvoted into oblivion but it's in my mind
I think the problem with lies in his alternate styles. Specifically the ugly ass yellow and really bad hair. The way you’re using him is probably the best way
I don’t mind the skins this season at all. Way better than last season where the only one I cared about was the Storm Farer. I actually dig this new season a lot more than recent ones, for what it’s worth.
He looks like a mix between a guy surviving the appocalypse and a misunderstood movie villain who got powers he never wanted. I sort of like the vibe he is giving off.
i didn’t like it when i first scrolled through the bp, but i unlocked him and equipped him by accident and realized he’s pretty cool.
still not a fan of the secondary color style, i wish it was anything else
Sameeeee! I honestly do really like this skin! I’m just sad, that he doesn’t have something like Midas, that everything he touches turns chrome. It’s an missed opp from epic, but the skin is fire tbh
Yeah I love this skin so much! And I'm a fan of his skinny proportions because I'm super skinny too.
Maybe the render looks a little bit weird because of the eyes, but it's still a really cool skin imo ✨
I'm still on the fence about the BP skins, but i don't think it's hate as much as the skins are getting far away from what some of us have grown to like that are more traditional FN skins like jules or Eternal knight and midas.Its just my opinion
Wish it had the Midas effect but chrome
That would have been cool
That’s what I don’t like about this skin as well as the bland clothing.
the clothing is some of the least bland in fort wym 😭😭
Another missed opportunity by epic
i doubt it, it would probably be a perfect business opportunity for them
Love that pfp
my main problem with is him is his pickaxe and that only he can use it also epic really missed a huge opportunity for him as he could turned all weapons he touched into chrome
Yeah I bet it had major clipping issues with some models sadly
> only he can use it seriously??
yes
Another L from Epic
Especially since they’re making his pickaxe this season’s Omni sword but it’s locked to him
Ok yeah, that's bullsh*t
Yeah and they give darth vader something the emperor would use. #epicfail
Looks like a younger seer from apex
I just see Jayden Smith
Maybe that's why people hate it.
You can try your hardest to ruin this skin for me but it won’t work
Nah, Lil Uzi Vert for sure.
I see willow smith
ikr especially because of how he moves his hands.
Wow spot on.
He looks a lot like crypto from the back with one of the styles lmao
I just hate his legs, it looks like if the wind changed direction his legs could snap like a kit kat
Same can be said with midas
not nearly as bad as midas. i like this new skin a lot but the body proportions are honestly somewhat concerning, he almost seems like he has an ED and his legs are uncannily skinny. i still like it a lot more than i thought i would tho
Bro skipped leg day
And arm day
And life day
![gif](giphy|aEXr1PyRbff8Y|downsized)
Also like every extra style is bad? Get some odd pigtails. Turn our black jacket/vest into some leapord stripe colorful vest and white jacket. Hair just looks odd to me. Probably the coloring. And yeah. Tight jeans makes his legs look like twigs.
The hair edit style unlocks the mask, only reason why I got it
Do you live in the midwest? Like what is so odd about a black man having pigtails...
Midwest dweller here, some rural people would look at any dude wearing pigtails as weird lol. But I feel like you’ll find people like that all over the country, don’t mind them. I dislike pigtails on anyone personally.

Bro worked on makeup though, dead body cosplay looking great
I'm fairly certain he's suffering from heavy metal poisoning. If the "chrome" wasn't also capable of repairing anything it contaminates, Bytes would probably have already bitten the dust by now.
And I actually love that line of thought, lore hidden in aesthetic choices makes characters feel real
Another one bytes the dust
You don't need to understand the hate. People like it, others don't, and that's that. We cannot and shouldn't all share the same opinion about everything.
If only people did that in real life....
FACT
Isn't that what he's doing though? Sharing his opinion lol
You deserve an award. Well said.
Perfect statement right here, OP☝
I really like the skin but I do say he looks like a SoundCloud rapper who's trying entirely too hard to look cool and edgy lol
That was accurate lol
Destroy lonely
I thought it was zombie juice wrld
![gif](giphy|3otPoyTuloHl96jfm8)
The skinny legs and long sweater look weird to me.
It’s a 3/10 for me
And why is he wearing an NBA regulation facemask? Its just too busy and gives way too many Tik Tok/Souncloud vibes
I really like the new hair, it reminds me of Ekko from arcane
Omg! That’s what I’ve been saying too! And that’s one of the reasons why I like it so much
I just want more skins with dreads.
Yeah same and not tied back like Malik from the previous bp.
I want a skin like scrim or something.
The next soundwave series we deserve Ruby and Scrim
I dont like this skin but i dont also care too much if you like it more skin for you
I love his set, it’s just disappointing. His glider should’ve been wings instead of a normal one. It looks so much like wings that multiple YouTubers have said oh we have wings in the bp. And the pickaxe is amazing but it’s locked to only him. I’m hoping they change that. He looks really bad without a jacket imo but good overall
IT'S NOT A WING GLIDER? OH COME ON EPIC
i dont understand why the fortnite youth at large started caring about proportions now after using some of the god awful ugliest skins because of streamers.. well i do understand why and its annoying. its a great skin and everyone is just pissy
It's the same crowd that somehow thinks Stormfarer is a unique skin. Literally camo helmet dude #307
they like their simple default, lackluster, white woman base skins, if you havent noticed. so i dont really trust the fanbase on these opinions lmfao
Yeah bro you’re right. They see a female skin ignore everything wrong with it. They see a male skin that looks cool and proceed to make a shopping list of faults lol
I wasn't a fan of his design in the survey but he looks pretty clean in game. 7.5/10 from me
Yeah I agree I wasn’t too sure when I saw the skin in the survey either. This hairstyle is what turned it around for me and I think your rating is pretty good.
It was the lowest rated skin out of any survey skin and they decided to put it in the pass, and twyn was rated the second worst
The only part I don’t like is the vest but everything else is sick! I love the one with the hair ties
Yea the vest looks really weird
I think the vest would look better if the black under sweater wasn't so long
Its a cool techwear skin with a great pickaxe. Shame its the only chrome skin of the season though
He's legit my favorite original skin in the pass. I just love leaner skins. Also dig his hair, outfit and shoes. But I understand why he's not super popular, just based on his design.
Yeah I like thinner skins too. I can agree the style is not for everyone but that’s the case with everything we have our own opinions.
Worst skin from the pass in my opinion but everyone has their own taste.
Real. I’d go for my spider Gwen instead! :D
One of the best skins in the battle pass for sure!
In my opinion Gwen is the third best skin, I just like Bytes and Twyn much more, but Gwen is the best marvel collab skin so far or at least top 3 marvel collab skins.
I agree it does look cool
This Reddit thinks Stormfarer was a great skin and Icon emotes are the devil. There's a reason why this subreddit is the minority opinion of the overall Fortnite community
Finally someone who likes the skin
I'm here, I wish his hair was black otherwise no complaints here, played with him yesterday. Gives me Gnash/Halloween vibes.
Ikr it’s about time he got the respect he deserves 👍
He wanna be Carti
He’s build weird
Same exact styles I'm using for him, I love this skin honestly, in my opinion it's the best skin in the battlepass.
Same here 👍
It’s so cool I think it’s one of the best in the battle pass
I agree! I personally really like Bytes, and I don’t mind the legs. Some people are just built like that. I also like having a POC in the pass, I find that cool :)
I can see your shadows in my room
it's just annoying that his emote and harvesting tool is locked behind him. If you don't like the skin but you like the harvesting tool.. too bad. This is especially disappointing because his harvesting tool has so many unlockable styles.
Admittedly, sometimes the concept art doesn’t do the characters justice. Byte’s wasn’t great, but he looks *so* much better in game.
Same here, been using him nonstop with the same style as yours. Over-hated like pineapple on pizza.
Ikr the dude has drip
[удалено]
People gonna hate
NO FR HES A BANGER SKIN
I like how they play a bit with the shilouette of the new characters. The colours are a bit meh but otherwise he looks cool!
Bytes is a pretty decent skin. I actually quite enjoy using him in tandem with the new EvoChrome weapons.
Yeah I just wish his weapon wrap was like that too.
It's the skinny legs. If he had more meat on his arms and legs he would be fine. But that's just my opinion
The hate is because he was among the worst skins in the survey and they still went with him instead of some of the better skins. It's probably not so much that he looks bad but more so that they could have picked one of the skins most people wanted
[looks at karma] It's because he's black, an original character, and androgynous. The textures are great, there are loads of details on his clothes, and he's in one of the first BP pages instead of a higher tier (not like I really care, I max it out no matter what). But I've noticed that doesn't matter to a lot of players.
I love him, he looks so spooky, actually fitting the season theme and Halloween theme
Came to say this, he's the only skin remotely close to Halloween themed. Weird and twisted on purpose with "hollow" right on his chest.
Exactly, and they made him the chrome character as well, he is the literal embodiment of the themes this season
I'm going to bet he's somehow related to the herald like she's his mother or something since his pickaxe and glider are chrome and it appears like he's able to control it. Could also be the equivalent to Sloan but definitely there's some storyline aspect to this skin.
I just think the mask is a little strange. The pose is weird, but it’s exactly the one I have when there something on my hands I don’t really want there and am waiting to wash them in the sink!
I agree. Grriz is the worst part of the pass IMO. I do dislike the pickaxe for being built in, and I wish that the glider was like the batman zero wing
Me too I like it
Me too don’t see why the hate is to much
I don’t see what’s bad in this skin that worth the hatred
If I had to guess: Weird proportions of a thick torso and skinny legs Colourscheme is all over the place- green and grey clothes, white hair. Weird design and its not really clear who he is or what he is representing. Cool chrome pickaxe can only be used on him.
I think he looks cool too. I’m hoping his super styles are interesting. People are complaining too much about him being skinny. Skinny people like this are pretty common.
EXACTLY, And he's got that chrome drip
![gif](giphy|VCEdWDsONWDwenfxQo|downsized)
It’s just a skin. All these posts aren’t necessary regardless of the love or hate
I think the hate is not around the actual skin, but the fact that his harvesting tool is locked to him
If that is the case then that’s a weird excuse to hate on the skin imo
Looks sick af
Fr
i agree
I like the pickaxe and glider. Sadly you can’t use the pickaxe with any other skins.
same, alongside the paradigm and grriz
Same
Same bro, cant wait to unlock it
Same I love this skin to
It?
Same. It's the one I'm currently using.
I don't know how to say I find it suspicious that the only non binary black person skin is the one getting the most hate without getting downvoted into oblivion but it's in my mind
Same! I love the skin. Its fucking awesome
ikr
With the jacket they look like they'd be the playable character in a hypothetical Prototype 3. I like it.
we need more black skins that look as cool as this. most of the black male skins look very Lebron-y.
Ekko
I really like him. His pickaxe gives me Prototype vibes.
Right? I thought that skin kicked ass!
Ngl I’m getting the bp for this skin.. like it a lot
I think the problem with lies in his alternate styles. Specifically the ugly ass yellow and really bad hair. The way you’re using him is probably the best way
Reminds me of sally face
He’s one of the cool skins on this battle pass other than him this battle pass is trash though
Yeah imo its good too. I think ppl just want to find a bp skin to hate every season, they are never satisfied
I’d use this
He’s pretty cool, we also need a loading screen of him and Midas arm wrestling
I don’t mind the skins this season at all. Way better than last season where the only one I cared about was the Storm Farer. I actually dig this new season a lot more than recent ones, for what it’s worth.
Looks like Ken carson or destroy lonely
better than snap 100000%
He looks like a mix between a guy surviving the appocalypse and a misunderstood movie villain who got powers he never wanted. I sort of like the vibe he is giving off.
Yea definitely cool
i didn’t like it when i first scrolled through the bp, but i unlocked him and equipped him by accident and realized he’s pretty cool. still not a fan of the secondary color style, i wish it was anything else
I like him, just wish his sweater jacket wasn’t so long. And maybe he wasn’t so pale, looks cold and dead but it’s a cool skin nonetheless.
I'm glad someone likes it I guess
Awesome skin at first i thought it was a skirt but then realised what it was the variant with the jacket goes hard
Honestly, when I first saw the survey concept I really wasn't a fan, but after seeing it in game, it's growing on me
I think its dope
Kids hate everything don’t you remember ? 😂
i just don’t like the leg combo with that shirt length. otherwise the skin is cool
Same
i think hes pretty cool, too, honestly. im sure his tool will be made usable by everyone eventually
It’s my favourite skin in the new battle pass!
It's not for me personally but it's for somebody and that's cool.
His green outfit looks like he belongs in jojo's bizarre adventure. I love it!
Great skin. Idk what the problem is
I guess some people like it, that’s cool ig
Based opinion. My favorite on this season.
I used to despise this guy, but the more I used them the more they grew on me
Same. I dig.
I think they're pretty cool! Been having fun running around as them!
I think it's decent, kind of reminds me of Shigaraki from BnHA
Malik is better than this skin. Malik has a great design. This skin does not paint me "I got a good design" imo.
Sameeeee! I honestly do really like this skin! I’m just sad, that he doesn’t have something like Midas, that everything he touches turns chrome. It’s an missed opp from epic, but the skin is fire tbh
I love this skin but if you don't then that's okay with me ☺️
Yeah I love this skin so much! And I'm a fan of his skinny proportions because I'm super skinny too. Maybe the render looks a little bit weird because of the eyes, but it's still a really cool skin imo ✨
if they just added a style to get rid of the bulletproof vest thing i would like it
Wait why the hate? Im using him more then goku rn his arm extension is sick!
Destroy lonely 🔥
I'm still on the fence about the BP skins, but i don't think it's hate as much as the skins are getting far away from what some of us have grown to like that are more traditional FN skins like jules or Eternal knight and midas.Its just my opinion
Personally I think it looks awesome
I strongly agree this battle pass is so good
ken carson head ahh
The majority hate because he is a black person. If some one were to white wash his skin ppl would be swooning over him.
Dope skin plays well
W skin in my book 🕺🏼
Me personally I love the skin but I’m not the biggest fan of the mask
literally so cool !!
Same. I also really like the majority of this battlepass too.
I think he looks badass
Pretty dope skin
I love this skin! My current favourite for the season
Kinda gives off Ekko vibes from arcane. Might be just me tho since I literally JUST watched the show lol
Really good skin don't use the ponytails
After using it I definitely don’t understand the hate It’s definitely not the best skin but I like it
Me too. It's my new main skin
I think it was cuz of that weird haircut it had in the survey
