Souvenir Tec-9 | Whiteout (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Battle-Scarred is the roughest version of the all-white Tec-9, with heavy loss of paint on the shroud, receiver edges and magazine. The white survives mostly in recessed and flat areas, giving a worn, almost dusty look. It is the most affordable way into this skin.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Solid Color: a single colour without a pattern; wear dulls it evenly and rubs it off along the edges.

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The entire Tec-9 is spray-painted in a single cream-white tone with no pattern or accents. The perforated barrel shroud and the muzzle carry the same paint, but their ribs and hole edges are where dark metal shows through first.

Heavy paint loss covers the shroud, receiver, magazine and grip, and dark metal dominates the front half. The white survives in patches on flat surfaces and in recesses. In game the pistol reads as worn and dusty rather than white. No part of the weapon looks fully clean.

Battle-Scarred wear: float 0.45–1

The float of Souvenir Tec-9 | Whiteout ranges from 0.06 to 1; the Battle-Scarred quality covers 0.45–1 — 59% of this skin’s scale. Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

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

The plain white frame works as a blank canvas: black, grey or holo stickers stand out clearly on the receiver side. For a calmer look, pick white or pale stickers that blend into the coat, or a single bright accent near the grip.

What to look at before you buy

• On a solid-colour finish the float decides everything, so compare the inspect view of the shroud and receiver edges between offers.
• Even Factory New copies may show slight darkening on the barrel shroud, so do not expect a perfectly untouched coat.
• Check stickers and a name tag, since on a plain white pistol they draw the eye immediately.
• Souvenir versions exist, so check whether the copy carries its fixed stickers.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred

• Budget players who want this skin at the lowest entry.
• Fans of heavily worn, dusty finishes.
• In short, the cheapest way into Whiteout.
