A Look at the Fortnite Skins That Epic Games Removed Quietly
On the other side, Epic Games has done a befitting job of developing Lachlan’s skin. The skin outrightly matches the YouTuber, and has the classic comb-over haircut. It has a back bling named ‘Banner Cape’ that has Lachlan’s electrical logo on it, and a dual build pickaxe skin with a scythe and an axe.
Last, but not least, Lachlan’s skin has a backflip emote named Power Punch.
“I didn’t want to do a dance.. a dance didn’t feel like me. I’ve always loved the backflip emote since it was added in the game and it’s just like a nice little animation. That’s what I was looking for,”
