The M249 | Warbird (Battle-Scarred) is a robust light machine gun designed for open-area combat, ideal for players who prefer accuracy and high ammunition capacity over a fast fire rate. Its once-vibrant blue and yellow appearance has faded due to age and use, giving it a worn look that tells a story of battles fought.
The M249 | Warbird was introduced to CS2 on November 18th, 2019, as part of the Shattered Web Case during the "Operation Shattered Web" update. The skin was designed by community artist MultiH.
This skin features a "Gunsmith" style finish with a combination of patina and custom paint effects. Predominantly painted in shades of gray, the Warbird finish showcases a rugged aesthetic that complements its battle-scarred theme. The patterns on the skin do not vary with different pattern indexes.
As a Battle-Scarred skin, the float value of the M249 | Warbird ranges from 0.45 to 1.00. The level of wear significantly affects the skin's design, where higher float values indicate more visible signs of wear and tear.
The M249 | Warbird is a relatively accessible skin, with its price dynamics showing a tendency to remain stable due to its Mil-Spec Grade rarity. Compared to other machine gun skins, it is priced competitively, making it a solid choice for players looking for both function and aesthetics.
The M249 | Warbird is classified as Mil-Spec Grade rarity, which indicates that it is a fairly common drop with a drop chance of approximately 79.92%. This level of rarity makes it more accessible to players compared to higher-tier skins.
This skin can be obtained by opening a Shattered Web Case container. It has a drop chance of around 79.92%, making it a common find for players engaging with the game's loot system.
With a popularity rating of 70%, the M249 | Warbird ranks within the top 30% of the most popular items in CS2. This popularity reflects its desirability among players and its consistent demand in the marketplace.
