Souvenir FAMAS | Neural Net (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

This FAMAS is recognisable by its bright yellow body broken up by grey and black triangular fragments. Minimal Wear keeps the colour and the sharp pattern almost intact, with only small marks on the outer edges. It gives nearly the same look as the cleanest grade for a buyer who does not need a spotless gun.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Anodized Multicolored: several colours in the metal coating; it wears little, the colours only dull with use.

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

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The receiver, carry handle and stock are coated in translucent yellow over a metallic base, scattered with angular grey, olive and black shards that create a fractured, net-like pattern. The carry handle shows larger grey patches, while the stock is densely covered with dark fragments.

Small scuffs may appear on the top edge of the carry handle and the tip of the muzzle. The receiver and stock surfaces remain clean and fully coloured. In game these marks are practically invisible, and the gun looks almost identical to Factory New. The pattern stays sharp across the whole rifle.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

The whole float range of Souvenir FAMAS | Neural Net is 0–0.6; Minimal Wear takes the 0.07–0.15 segment (13% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

Origin of the skin

Souvenir FAMAS | Neural Net belongs to The Falchion Collection, which holds 16 skins.

It drops from Falchion Case (on sale since Apr 15, 2015).

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.

Which stickers suit it

Black, dark grey and gold stickers sit naturally on the yellow body and echo the shard pattern. Placements on the receiver side under the carry handle and on the stock read best against the yellow coat. Strong reds or pinks tend to clash with the yellow-and-grey scheme.

What to look at before you buy

• Look at the float position within the wear grade, since copies near the cleaner end keep noticeably more yellow on the carry handle and stock.
• Inspect the top of the carry handle and the muzzle, as these are the first areas where the metal base shows through.
• Check the pattern placement on the receiver and stock, because the shard layout shifts between copies and some show more dark fragments than others.
• Note any applied stickers or name tag and decide whether they fit your plans for the rifle.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want a near-pristine look without paying for the cleanest grade.
• Sticker crafters, since the small edge marks are hidden in normal play.
• A sensible balance between appearance and cost.
