AUG | Storm (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

In Battle-Scarred this solid-colour AUG looks heavily used: the pale green shell is broken by wide worn areas and the blue-grey magazine and grip are scraped down on every raised edge. The colour scheme still comes through on the larger panels. It is the roughest, most lived-in version of a simple finish.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Consumer Grade is the lowest tier of the rarity scale: the most common skins, most often used in trade-up contracts.

Solid Color: a single colour without a pattern; wear dulls it evenly and rubs it off along the edges.

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn.

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The receiver and stock shell are painted a pale mint green that covers most of the rifle. The magazine and vertical foregrip are a muted blue-grey, which separates them clearly from the body.

Wide worn areas break up the green shell, and the magazine and grip are scraped on nearly every raised surface. Wear around the trigger guard and stock edges merges into larger bare zones. In game the rifle reads as rough and heavily used. Some colour remains on the larger flat areas of the body.

Stickers and crafts

Stickers in pale blue, grey, white or soft green continue the stormy palette without breaking it. A single darker accent in navy or charcoal on the light body creates contrast that matches the dark barrel and scope.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the float within the wear range, since paint loss on the light body grows noticeably towards the dirtier end of each grade.
• Look at the stock corners, magazine ribs and grip, as these are the parts that lose paint first.
• The finish has no pattern, so pattern index does not change the look.
• Souvenir copies carry their own printed stickers, so check whether they suit the pale colour scheme before buying.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred

• Players who prefer a rough, heavily worn look.
• The most budget-friendly way to own this finish.
• For those who value a battered rifle over a clean one.
