Souvenir SSG 08 | Memorial (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

In Battle-Scarred the pale concrete finish of Memorial is heavily chipped and dirtied, with the bronze engravings partly broken up by wear. The overall light-and-bronze scheme is still visible, but the rifle reads as a battered relic rather than a clean monument. It is the most affordable way to own the design.

Item type: sniper rifle. 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, Field-Tested and Well-Worn. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The receiver and handguard are covered in an off-white, slightly mottled finish that imitates concrete, with dark cut-outs along the handguard left visible. Bronze panels with engraved relief sit on the side of the receiver around the magazine area and on the stock, giving the rifle its warm accent.

Large chipped areas and heavy grime cover the receiver, stock and grip, and the scope body is marked as well. The bronze engravings are broken up and only partly visible. In game the rifle looks battered and much darker than a clean copy. Only the overall pale-and-bronze layout remains recognisable.

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

Bronze, gold, brown and muted grey stickers match the engraved panels and concrete tone. Holo or gold stickers in warm shades work well on the pale receiver, while bright neon colours tend to clash with the restrained palette.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the pale finish shows each step of wear clearly.
• Look at the receiver edges, scope rings and grip, as these parts lose paint first.
• Make sure the bronze engraved panels on the receiver and stock are intact on the copy you choose.
• Check applied stickers and a name tag, and whether you want the StatTrak™ version.

Who the Battle-Scarred quality suits

• Budget entry for players who want the skin at the lowest cost.
• Those who enjoy a heavily battered, relic-like rifle.
• The cheapest route to the design, with clear visual compromises.
