NICKMERCS blasts \u201crats\u201d CoD devs over MW3 Warzone skin that looks like his NICKMERCS\/ActivisionStreaming star Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff has hit out at the Call of Duty Warzone devs as a new skin has popped up and looks similar to his one that has been removed. Over the years, different games have found ways to honor some of their most loyal and popular fans. Fortnite had the ICON Series cosmetics, which saw the likes of Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins and Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys get skins in-game. Naturally, that led to calls for Call of Duty to follow suit. Many suggested that competitive legends like Seth \u2018Scump\u2019 Abner and Mathew \u2018Nadeshot\u2019 Haag should get their own, but, instead, it was NICKMERCS and Tim \u2018TimTheTatman\u2019 Betar who received the first two. Those two skins were in the game for a few days before being pulled from the store after Nick made a controversial comment about Pride Month relating to LGBTQIA+ topics in schools. Tim\u2019s skin was also removed for a brief period as he backed his friend. NICKMERCS hits out at Warzone devs over new Roman soldier skin While Tim\u2019s cosmetics have been available since, Nick\u2019s set hasn\u2019t \u2013 and it\u2019s even cost people like Scump their own skin too \u2013 with the FaZe Clan star boycotting CoD ever since. Well, with the release of Warzone\u2019s integration with Modern Warfare 3, the devs have added a new Roman soldier-esque skin to the battle royale, and it looks pretty similar to Nick\u2019s since-removed skin. It didn\u2019t long for him to comment on it after one fan brought it to his attention. \u201cBuncha rats,\u201d Nick commented, naturally an emoji of a rat as well. Some fans called on Nick to take legal action over the new skin, however, that would be pretty difficult given they\u2019re all using depictions of Roman soldiers anyway. It\u2019s all just historical. As noted, the FaZe Clan star has not been back on CoD since his skin was removed, but opened the door slightly to making a return by saying he\u2019ll \u201csee what the vibe is\u201d with regards to the update.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
