I guess this is probably going to be the new shitty norm with bait and switch for reviews then nickel and dime afterwards.

I wish more players would just ignore these cosmetic microtransactions and go with the default skin or at least limit themselves to ones that can be obtained by actually achieving something in the game. Using default skin while outplaying people in competitive games could probably induce some people to make quite salty comments.
