Souvenir P2000 | Fire Elemental (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Fire Elemental combines an orange flame creature with a deep blue finish, and even in Battle-Scarred the orange-on-blue silhouette is easy to identify. The slide art is heavily chipped and bare metal shows through on edges and raised areas. Because the range for this skin stops short of the dirtiest values, the damage is heavy but not total.

Item type: pistol. 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. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The slide carries the main artwork: an orange and yellow fire creature with a visible eye, red outlines and swirling flame tongues running from the muzzle end towards the rear sight. The base colour across the slide, frame and grip is a deep royal blue with fine light speckles that look like a starry texture.

The slide art is heavily chipped, with large areas of bare metal along the edges, top and muzzle. Flames on the frame are broken up and the grip front is worn down. In game the pistol reads as orange on blue with a rough texture rather than a detailed drawing. Because the range for this skin ends early, the creature's silhouette is not lost entirely, and the grip sides keep much of their blue.

Battle-Scarred quality — float range 0.45–0.6

The float of Souvenir P2000 | Fire Elemental ranges from 0 to 0.6; the Battle-Scarred quality covers 0.45–0.6 — 25% 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

The skin’s collection is The Vanguard Collection with 14 skins in total.

It drops from Operation Vanguard Weapon Case (on sale since Nov 5, 2014).

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

Orange, gold and red stickers echo the flames, while deep blue or holographic blue ones blend into the base. Placing stickers on the frame or lower slide keeps the fire creature on the slide visible.

What to look at before you buy

• Look at the float position within the wear grade, since a low float keeps the slide edges and muzzle noticeably cleaner.
• Inspect the flame creature and its eye on the slide, as this is the focal point and the first art to suffer on worn copies.
• Check the front of the grip and the slide top in the inspect view for bare metal.
• Note any applied stickers or name tag, since they change how the slide artwork reads.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred

• Entry-level buyers who want the cheapest version of this Covert skin.
• Fans of a heavily battered look that still keeps its colours.
• Conclusion: a budget entry for those who care about the colour scheme more than the drawing.
