This is wrong. Yorthwober isn't in A tier.

It's so basic tho
I think it might be my favorite.
It just looks like a badasser version of Hoodrick. I never leave home without it
But that’s the issue, all the other skins change something about the tribe, but in Yorthwober it’s just Hoodrick but cape and cooler bow.
The villages just turn to castles. The landscape and most of the weapons are the same and the OST, in my opinion, isn’t as catchy as base Hoodrick.
While every other tribe skin becomes a more distinct, completely different variation of the base skin, Yorthwober is really just “more Hoodrick Hoodrick”, and I feel that in this case alone, it fails as a skin.
To be fair, though, that was also the point. We wanted to make "Badass/Elite Hoodrick." Like, what do the King's personal guard look like? What's the most "elite" we can make them?
And the fact that it matched a lore blurb image was icing on the cake.
This isn't what I see at all when I see the Hoodrick skin, tbh.
Up until reading this comment, I always thought it was supposed to be an allegory to Robin Hood and his band, and now I'm disappointed that it isn't
It was actually an inspiration.
The Hoodrick, themselves, are clearly based on Robin Hood. The Yorthwober are meant to be more like "a professional military" compared to the more roguish standard Hoodrick.
That being said, I did try to add some of the Robin Hood-esque flair to the YW by adding "Yorth", the expert marksman who trained them all. After all, "Yorthwober" means something similar to "Yorth's Men".
