Souvenir MP9 | Shredded (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The torn three-colour camo of MP9 | Shredded stays almost fully intact in Minimal Wear. Any marks are tiny and sit on the edges, so at normal viewing distance the finish looks practically the same as a fresh copy. This grade gives the bright cream-and-orange look without paying for the cleanest condition.

Item type: smg. 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.

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

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

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The receiver and upper body are covered in a pale cream base broken by large ragged dark brown blotches and narrow orange-red streaks, forming a torn tiger camo. The vertical foregrip, pistol grip and long magazine carry the same pattern, with dense dark spots near their lower ends.

Small specks of lost paint may appear at the very edges, such as the front of the receiver and the bottom of the magazine. These marks are faint and easy to miss among the dark blotches of the pattern. In game the skin looks practically identical to Factory New. The sides of the receiver, grips and orange details remain clean.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

The whole float range of Souvenir MP9 | Shredded 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 MP9 | Shredded belongs to The Radiant Collection, which holds 28 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.

Which stickers suit it

Stickers in orange, red, brown or gold tones blend well with the camo, while black or dark brown designs echo the torn blotches. Placements on the receiver side above the grip are the most visible against the light base.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within its wear grade, since a low float in Field-Tested or Well-Worn keeps noticeably more cream paint on the edges.
• Look at the front of the receiver, the grip ridges and the magazine base, because these are the first places where the camo wears off.
• Souvenir copies exist, so check whether the copy carries souvenir stickers and whether they suit you.
• If a name tag or applied stickers are listed, make sure they match the cream, brown and orange palette.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want a near-perfect look without paying for the top grade.
• Sticker crafts where tiny edge marks will not be noticed.
• A sensible middle ground between appearance and cost.
