StatTrak™ G3SG1 | Demeter (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The Demeter mosaic on the G3SG1 combines teal and blue tiles, black seams and scattered orange pieces on the handguard, receiver and scope. In Minimal Wear the pattern looks practically the same as a fresh copy at normal viewing distance, with only tiny marks on the most exposed edges. It gives nearly the full look of the cleanest grade with a little less concern about perfection.

Item type: sniper rifle. 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.

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

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

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The handguard and receiver are covered in a mosaic of teal and deep blue tiles separated by thick black lines, with irregular orange pieces scattered mostly along the front half. The scope tube carries the same blue-and-black tiling, while the scope mount and bolt area stay dark.

Small specks of wear may appear on the front edge of the handguard and the ends of the scope tube. The tiles and orange patches stay complete and bright. In game the difference from Factory New is hard to notice. The receiver sides and the main pattern area still look clean.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

Which stickers suit it

Stickers in blue, teal or orange tones blend with the mosaic, while black or holo stickers echo the dark seams. Placing them on the receiver side keeps the pattern on the handguard and scope visible.

What to check before buying

• Compare float within the chosen wear, since lower values keep the scope tube and handguard edges cleaner.
• Look at the ends of the scope tube and the front of the handguard, as these show wear first.
• Check how much orange falls on the visible side, because the pattern placement varies between copies.
• Note any stickers or name tag already applied and whether they suit the blue and orange palette.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want a near-clean look and do not inspect every edge.
• Crafters looking for a tidy base at a step below the top grade.
• In short, a balanced choice between appearance and cost.
