Souvenir XM1014 | Ziggy (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The Ziggy finish turns the XM1014 into a loud mix of lime green and violet bands broken by silver. At Minimal Wear the colours look nearly identical to a new copy, and any marks stay small and close to the edges. It is a practical way to get a fresh-looking Ziggy without paying for the cleanest grade.

Item type: shotgun. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Patina: an aged metal surface; wear is part of the design, so the gap between qualities is less visible.

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

How the skin looks in Minimal Wear

The barrel and the magazine tube under it carry flowing chartreuse and purple swirls with silver accents, and the colours shift along the length of the weapon. The receiver repeats the pattern in broader bands of green and violet.

Light scuffs may appear on the muzzle and the edges of the receiver rail. The swirls on the barrel keep their saturation. At normal distance the difference from Factory New is hard to notice. The grip and stock remain clean.

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 purple, lime green or holographic tones match the acid palette of the pattern. Placing them on the receiver keeps them near the strongest colour bands, while silver or dark stickers give a calmer contrast.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since thinning on the muzzle and receiver grows quickly in the worn grades.
• Look at the pattern placement, because the randomized colours make some copies greener and others more purple.
• Inspect the muzzle, barrel top and receiver rail, as these parts lose paint first.
• Check for applied stickers and a name tag, and whether their colours fit the green and purple scheme.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want a near-new look for less.
• Sticker crafters who do not need a perfect surface.
• A balanced pick between appearance and cost.
