Souvenir SCAR-20 | Cardiac (Well-Worn)

Skin overview

In Well-Worn condition Cardiac takes on a rough, battered character. The blue areas lose depth as grey metal shows through along edges and the magazine, while the orange on the receiver holds up longer. It is an affordable way to own the design if a worn finish does not bother you.

Item type: sniper rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

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 Battle-Scarred. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

Appearance in Well-Worn

The receiver is wrapped in dark blue with a bright orange burst across its side, flowing toward the grip and magazine well. The handguard carries the same blue, while the black barrel has an orange and red speckled section near its base.

Wear spreads from the edges onto the flat sides of the handguard, magazine and stock, dulling the blue. The barrel loses much of its speckled section. The orange area on the receiver is scratched at the edges but still visible. In game the rifle looks clearly worn while keeping its colour split.

Where the skin comes from: collection and case

Souvenir SCAR-20 | Cardiac belongs to The Vanguard Collection, which holds 14 skins.

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

Stickers in orange, blue, black or white match the wrap and keep the contrast intact. Placements on the blue handguard or stock let warm accents stand out, while the orange receiver area is better left uncovered.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since copies near the upper boundary show more scratches than the name suggests.
• Inspect the muzzle, rail edges and magazine bottom, as these lose the vinyl first.
• Look at the orange burst on the receiver to see how clean the main motif is on your copy.
• Note whether it is a StatTrak or Souvenir version and whether stickers or a name tag are applied.

Who the Well-Worn quality suits

• Budget buyers who still want the orange-and-blue scheme.
• Players who like a battered, used look.
• An affordable option with the motif still visible.
