'Medium Rare' Crasswater | Guerrilla Warfare

'Medium Rare' Crasswater | Guerrilla Warfare is a Master-rank Terrorist agent from the Operation Riptide Agents set. Among the other agents in the set, it sits in the middle of the price range.

What the 'Medium Rare' Crasswater | Guerrilla Warfare looks like

A shirtless model: torso and arms are bare, with dark tattoos showing. A red bandana is tied around the head, dark unkempt hair sticks out from under it, and the face is scowling, with a thick beard.

The arms are crossed over the chest, one wrist wears a gray fingerless glove, and a dark strap runs over the shoulder. The silhouette is broad and rough, and there are only two spots of color: the red bandana and the tanned skin.

Where the 'Medium Rare' Crasswater | Guerrilla Warfare came from

The agent is part of the Operation Riptide Agents set, released on September 22, 2021 with Operation Riptide. Most of the set is made up of Guerrilla Warfare fighters and gendarmes.

According to Valve, he is a former Navy special forces captain. He was captured in the Middle East in the nineties, a failed rescue attempt fell apart, and the navy declared him dead. Over the years of captivity his love of country turned to hatred, he went over to the guerrillas and built discipline for them. He now grows new cells in Central America.

What the agent does in game

The model goes on the Terrorist side only: this agent cannot be worn on the other team. Damage, accuracy and hitboxes stay the same, and only the look of the fighter changes.

All copies of the agent are identical, so the choice comes down to the look itself.

Which gloves go with it

The model has no sleeves, so the arms show in full, and the glove on the hand works as a separate patch of color. An observation from the look: earthy, dark and muted gloves go well with the tanned skin and red bandana.

Bright red gloves clash with the bandana, and light ones read too sharply on dark skin. A small busy pattern also gets lost against the tattoos.

What the 'Medium Rare' Crasswater | Guerrilla Warfare costs

The Operation Riptide Agents set has twenty-one agents, and this one ranks eleventh by price, which is almost exactly in the middle.

Three Guerrilla Warfare agents sit above it: the nearest costs about a tenth more, the next about an eighth more. Below it come Jungle Rebel, about a tenth cheaper, and a gendarme agent that is almost a quarter cheaper.

Who it suits

Buying this agent for CS2 makes sense in these cases:

• you want a standout Guerrilla Warfare agent with a recognizable shirtless silhouette;


• you are collecting the Operation Riptide Agents set, where this agent covers the middle of the range;


• you play Terrorist, so a Counter-Terrorist model is not needed.
