Souvenir Tec-9 | Isaac (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Isaac pairs a dark body with red sci-fi stripes and markers, and in Battle-Scarred that scheme is heavily eroded. Large areas of red are rubbed away and bare metal shows through on the barrel shroud, receiver and magazine edges. It suits players who like a battered look while keeping the recognisable colour pairing.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Field-Tested and Well-Worn. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The whole pistol is painted in a dark graphite grey with a slightly matte look. The perforated barrel shroud carries red accents between and around the holes, and red diagonal stripes run along the receiver toward the rear sight.

Large parts of the red graphics are worn off, especially on the barrel shroud, the top of the receiver and the magazine base. Bare metal shows on edges and raised parts across the whole pistol, and the dark paint is heavily scratched. In game the skin reads as a battered gun with scattered red fragments.

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

Red, black, white or holographic red stickers continue the scheme of Tec-9 | Isaac without breaking it. Placing them on the receiver along the red stripes or on the magazine near the red band keeps the composition tidy.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since the red stripes show scuffs earlier than the dark base.
• Look at the barrel shroud holes and the magazine base, as these areas lose paint first.
• Make sure any applied stickers fit the red and graphite scheme, because mismatched colours stand out on this simple design.
• Decide whether you want the StatTrak™ or Souvenir version and check the name tag if one is applied.

Who the Battle-Scarred quality suits

• Players who deliberately look for a battered, heavily worn finish.
• The most budget-minded entry into the skin.
• In short: for those who like scars more than clean lines.
