Just two skins for the same character, if you complete the battle pass you can unlock the Turkish guy outfit.

Clothing was so much better back then.

Imagine clothes fitting this well and looking this sturdy now in days.

That was probably three quarters of their entire wardrobe so you'd want it to fit well.

Clothes do for this well and are sturdy. Quit buying Walmart, or make your own.

Olympic shooting still uses one hand grip today, I don't think it's the it never occurred to them, it's just not a part of the discipline.
