Souvenir AUG | Akihabara Accept (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

This is the anime cover AUG in its most damaged form: the vinyl is heavily scraped, exposing bare metal across large parts of the body. Violet and white patches survive here and there, but the portrait and headlines are badly broken up. The grade has a rough, peeled-poster look of its own and is the cheapest way to own the skin.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Covert is the top weapon rarity: usually the most prominent items of a collection or case.

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

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

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The body is covered in a white vinyl with deep violet and blue accents, styled as an anime magazine cover with red and blue Japanese headlines along the upper receiver. The stock carries the main artwork, a red-haired girl in dark clothing set against the white background, with a small round emblem and captions beside her.

Large areas of vinyl are scraped off across the stock, receiver, trigger guard and magazine, revealing metal underneath. Only scattered fragments of white, violet and the portrait survive. Because this grade covers a wide float range, the amount of remaining art varies noticeably between copies. In game it reads as a heavily peeled print on a dark rifle.

Battle-Scarred quality — float range 0.45–1

The float of Souvenir AUG | Akihabara Accept ranges from 0 to 1; the Battle-Scarred quality covers 0.45–1 — 55% of this skin’s scale. Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

Where the skin comes from: collection and case

Souvenir AUG | Akihabara Accept belongs to The Rising Sun Collection, which holds 16 skins. It does not drop from a case: the collection has none — such skins come from operation drops, souvenir packages or the market.

Souvenir version

This is the Souvenir version: such copies dropped to tournament viewers in souvenir packages; the team stickers and signatures on them cannot be removed or chosen. Souvenir items never carry StatTrak™. There is also the regular version without tournament stickers.

Stickers and crafts

Stickers in violet, white, pink or red match the magazine palette, and anime-style or holographic stickers fit the cover theme. Placing them on the receiver and magazine keeps the portrait on the stock visible.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the condition of the white vinyl changes noticeably inside each grade.
• Look closely at the stock, because the portrait there is the main artwork and the first thing that suffers on worn copies.
• Inspect the magazine base and the front of the trigger guard, which are among the first places to lose paint.
• Note whether the copy is a Souvenir and whether applied stickers suit the artwork or cover parts of it.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred

• Players who like the rough peeled-poster look.
• Buyers looking for the cheapest way to own the skin.
• Best for those who pick a copy by how much art remains.
