M4A1-S | Blood Tiger (Minimal Wear)

The M4A1-S | Blood Tiger in Minimal Wear (MW) is a Mil-Spec rifle with a hydrographic jungle tiger design. It drops from the CS:GO Weapon Case 2 and sits in The Arms Deal 2 Collection. It comes in only three wears: Factory New, Minimal Wear and Field-Tested.

What the M4A1-S | Blood Tiger looks like in Minimal Wear

Valve describes the finish in a single phrase: the skin is painted with hydrographics in a jungle tiger pattern. Hydrographics is a film carrying a ready-made design that gets transferred onto the body, which is why every copy has the same pattern.

The scale for this wear on the M4A1-S | Blood Tiger lies between 0.07 and 0.15. In this wear the skin is a short 0.07 to 0.15 band, so chasing the number is not worth the effort. The wear of a copy is set at the drop and cannot be changed afterward.

What to check before buying

Choosing a particular M4A1-S | Blood Tiger comes down to these points:

• float: values from 0.07 to 0.15 are possible, and the lower the number, the more of the paint is intact;


• a name tag and stickers already applied to the copy, which remain on the listing;


• the StatTrak version: it exists, but it is a separate product with its own page.

The M4A1-S | Blood Tiger has no pattern variants, so there is nothing to choose by.

What the M4A1-S | Blood Tiger costs in Minimal Wear

• Factory New is priced 2.28 times higher;


• Field-Tested is priced 1.08 times lower.

Of the five Mil-Spec M4A1-Ss, only the Briefing costs more than this skin in this wear, by about an eighth. The other three are noticeably cheaper: the Fizzy POP costs two and a half times less.

Getting the M4A1-S | Blood Tiger

The skin drops from the CS:GO Weapon Case 2. A contract cannot produce it: Mil-Spec is the lowest rank of The Arms Deal 2 Collection.

The skin itself does go into trade-ups as an input: ten Mil-Spec skins from this collection return one of four Restricted skins. They are the Dual Berettas | Hemoglobin, Five-SeveN | Case Hardened, MP9 | Hypnotic and Nova | Graphite.

StatTrak and Souvenir

The M4A1-S | Blood Tiger has a StatTrak version. No Souvenir packages were released for this finish; they were made only for the tournament map collections. Still, you can assemble a Souvenir copy on your own: the Souvenir-O-Matic applies gold tournament stickers and a player autograph to an ordinary skin from the inventory. For that reason a lone Souvenir copy occasionally turns up even where no packages ever existed.

Who this wear suits

Minimal Wear on the M4A1-S | Blood Tiger is worth buying under these conditions:

• you want an M4A1-S for CS2 in the jungle tiger design without paying the 2.28 times extra for Factory New;


• a float of 0.07 to 0.15, where the paint is nearly intact, works for you;


• you are putting together a contract from Mil-Spec skins of The Arms Deal 2 Collection.
