Souvenir AUG | Plague (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Plague turns the AUG into a dark, antique-looking piece with pale filigree spread across the stock and receiver. In Field-Tested the ornament is still readable as a whole, while edges and raised parts start to show greyish rubbing. The worn spots suit the gloomy theme and make the rifle look like an old engraved relic rather than a damaged gun.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The receiver, stock and top rail are finished in a dark charcoal base covered with a pale silvery ornament of veins, loops and filigree that reads like engraving. The same pattern runs over the trigger guard and the scope mount, while the barrel and muzzle stay plain matte black.

Grey rubbing becomes visible along the stock edges, the butt, the trigger guard and the top rail. Some fine lines of the ornament start to blur in these areas. In game the pattern still reads as a whole, and the wear blends into the dark antique look. The middle of the receiver and the flat sides of the stock keep most of the tracery.

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

Silver, white, black and holo stickers in monochrome tones blend with the pale engraving and keep the gloomy mood. A single accent in amber or copper echoes the magazine. Placements on the flat side of the stock read best against the dark base.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the edges of the stock and the trigger guard show the difference first.
• Look at the inspect view of the stock butt and top rail, as these parts lose the fine ornament earliest.
• Check applied stickers and a name tag, which can change how the dark finish looks on the body.
• Compare a StatTrak™ or Souvenir copy against a regular one if the counter or the souvenir status matters to you.

Who the Field-Tested quality suits

• Players who like the antique, aged feel that light wear adds to the horror theme.
• Buyers who want the full pattern readable in game at a moderate cost.
• A good everyday choice for this finish.
