Souvenir Tec-9 | Hades (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Hades keeps its theme of rows of Greek helmets in cream and grey, and it is still clearly recognisable in Field-Tested. Wear starts to show on the muzzle area, the top of the shroud and the edges of the grip, where the print breaks and darker metal shows through. The middle of the receiver still holds most of the pattern.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Industrial Grade is the second tier from the bottom: common skins from drops and collections.

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

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The whole body of the Tec-9 is covered in a hydrographic print of Greek helmets drawn as cream shapes with dark grey outlines and shading. The pattern runs across the perforated barrel shroud, the receiver, the trigger guard area and the grip, so the helmets appear in different sizes and angles on each part.

The print breaks visibly around the muzzle, the shroud holes and its top edge, and dark metal shows on the grip edges. The helmets on the receiver sides are mostly whole. The magazine has noticeable scuffs, especially near its base. At normal distance the pattern still reads clearly, with worn spots visible on the front end.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of Souvenir Tec-9 | Hades is 0–1; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (23% of the scale). The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Origin of the skin

The skin’s collection is The Gods and Monsters Collection with 14 skins in total. 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 cream, gold, bronze or muted grey blend well with the pale helmet print. A single darker or red sticker on the receiver side can work as an accent without fighting the busy pattern.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within its wear range, since copies near the cleaner end keep more print on the shroud and grip edges.
• Look at the muzzle, the shroud holes and the rear sight, as these are the first places where the helmet print breaks.
• Souvenir copies come with stickers already applied, so check whether their placement suits you.
• Review the inspect screenshots for any stickers or name tag on regular copies.

Who should buy Field-Tested

• Players who want the helmet theme clearly visible without paying for a clean grade.
• Those who like a little honest wear on the front end of the pistol.
• A practical everyday choice for Hades.
