AK-47 | Bloodsport (Well-Worn)

Well-Worn (WW) is the last of the four wears of the AK-47 | Bloodsport: the skin's scale ends at 0.45, so it has no Battle-Scarred at all. It is Covert rank, and it drops from the Spectrum Case. By float this wear spans 0.38 to 0.45, which is 16% of the scale.

What the AK-47 | Bloodsport looks like in Well-Worn

The skin is styled as the livery of a race car, in red, white and dark blue panels. The handguard and the side of the receiver are red. White and light gray panels run along the top cover, and dark blue inserts sit by the magazine well and on the grip. The bolt, the trigger and the ring of the gas tube are brass-gold, and the rivets are orange. The barrel, gas block and front sight stay bare.

On the red side of the receiver is a white outlined cat face with narrowed eyes, next to vertical characters that resemble katakana. The top cover reads a white "STRIKE" and a boxed "26" beside it, and the magazine carries a large "VOLTAIC". Below, a round gear emblem and sponsor decals flicker past, too small to make out.

In Well-Worn the thin white letters and outlines along the panel edges are already going, together with the edges of the handguard and the corners of the stock. The large red planes of the receiver side hold longer, so the cat face stays readable even on a scuffed rifle.

Where the AK-47 | Bloodsport came from

The finish's author is the Steam Workshop member SLIMEface. The submission is titled "BLOODSPORT - AK47 NORMALS" and dated November 8, 2016; the author left no description of his own with it. In the game, the Spectrum Collection was added in March 2017, and the AK-47 | Bloodsport arrived in the same update. Its number in Valve's catalog is 639.

What to check before buying

On the AK-47 | Bloodsport, this is what changes from listing to listing:

• float within 0.38 to 0.45;


• how sharp the white "STRIKE" and "VOLTAIC" lettering is along the panel edges;


• stickers and a name tag left on the AK-47 | Bloodsport by a previous owner.

The pattern is the same on all copies of the AK-47 | Bloodsport. With 0.38 to 0.45 as the whole range, there is nothing to gain by picking on float.

What the AK-47 | Bloodsport costs in Well-Worn

The price spread on this skin is small. Factory New costs about a third more, Minimal Wear about a tenth more, and Field-Tested costs the same as Well-Worn.

Among Covert AK-47 skins priced in this wear, it is nineteenth from the bottom of twenty-four: eighteen are cheaper and five dearer. The nearest above is the AK-47 | Vulcan, about a fifth dearer. Right below it come the AK-47 | Neon Revolution, the AK-47 | Fuel Injector and the AK-47 | The Empress. The dearest Covert AK-47 is the AK-47 | Wild Lotus.

Getting the AK-47 | Bloodsport

The only case that carries the finish is the Spectrum Case.

A trade-up for the AK-47 | Bloodsport takes ten skins from the rank below in this collection. The Classified skins there are AWP | Fever Dream, CZ75-Auto | Xiangliu and M4A1-S | Decimator. With two Covert skins, the odds of getting the AK are one in two.

StatTrak and Souvenir

The AK-47 | Bloodsport has a StatTrak version. No souvenir packages were ever released for this finish, since those were made only for tournament map collections. But you can assemble a souvenir copy yourself: the Souvenir-O-Matic puts gold tournament stickers and a player autograph on a regular skin from your inventory.

Stickers and craft on the AK-47 | Bloodsport

The panels are already crowded with lettering, so the stock and the handguard are what is left for a craft. The red-and-white palette takes black and dark blue stickers, while white and red ones fade into the artwork. The cat face on the side of the receiver should not be covered with a sticker, because it is the skin's main detail.

Who this wear suits

Buy the AK-47 | Bloodsport in Well-Worn if at least one of these fits:

• you want a Covert AK for CS2 with a bright livery, and the Factory New price does not suit you;


• the artwork matters more than clean edges: the cat face is visible even on scuffed panels;


• you want a Field-Tested price on a more worn rifle in CS2.

If the white letters need to stay even, look at Minimal Wear: it costs about a tenth more.
