How to change your name color + style

This guide will show you the trick to change the style of your name, which will display on the elimination screen.

WILL BE FIXED SOON

-- EDIT --
AFTER THE UPCOMING PATCH, THIS TRICK WILL NO LONGER WORK. I WILL KEEP THE GUIDE UP REGARDLESS.

-- EDIT 2 --
NAMES ARE DISABLED.

Short Explanation

To do this, you have to understand the hexadecimal RGB color code, which means:

R = Red
G = Green
B = Blue

Hexadecimal goes from 0 to F, which means:

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F

Left (0) is none, Right (F) is maximum.

So a code like #F00 means 100% red, 0% green, 0% blue.

PS: To save character space, we will use the 3 digits format #RGB instead of the traditional 6 digits #RRGGBB. But it is also possible if you need to be extra precise.

Add a color to your name

You must go on Steam, and change your username.

If you want your name to be red, your name should look like this:

<#F00>NAME

Here's a few codes I've tried:

RED: #F00
BLUE: #00F
GREEN: #0F0
YELLOW: #FF0
ORANGE: #F90
CYAN: #0FF
PURPLE: #A0F
DARK PURPLE: #90F
PINK: #F0F
DESIGN BLUE: #05F
LIGHT-PINK: #A57
RED SALMON: #F87 or #FA8072

I've made this little thing for you to test out different colors right away:

Please note: The color of your name will only be displayed on the elimination screen OR if you get the crown. Not during the match itself.

Side note:

A BUNCH of websites copy/pasted my guide word for word, even my codepen.io example... This includes Forbes, The Verge, Wired, and many more.

Although I'm flattered, I would prefer if they removed my guide from their site, as it is literally a copy paste from what I made. This is the original source and would like it to be unique. I've contacted the ones that I've seen so far so they can get em removed ASAP. Thank you.

Please leave a star and like the guide :)

@Dirtsword888 no, they've never enabled back player's names. However, if they were to get re-enabled, this would most likely be fixed.
