MAC-10 | Ensnared (Field-Tested)

The MAC-10 | Ensnared in Field-Tested (FT) carries a float of 0.15 to 0.38. It is a Mil-Spec skin from The Dreams & Nightmares Collection, made for the Terrorist side in CS2. The gun is a gray MAC-10 with Egyptian engraving and a pale panel in which figures seem frozen.

What the MAC-10 | Ensnared looks like in Field-Tested

The body is gray metal with dark engraving. The upper panel is milky white with a light blue glow, the silhouettes inside are black, and the eyes are white and turquoise dots. In the panel you can see palms reaching upward and pairs of glowing eyes, as if someone were locked inside.

The pale panel covers the top of the receiver, and the engraved ornament runs along the sides, the grip and the front. The magazine and the sling are plain gray. On the side there is a bird glyph, rings and dashes in an Egyptian spirit.

The background has a light grain, and there is no obvious scuffing. Field-Tested is given a wide stretch of the scale, and the wear is fixed when the copy drops.

Where the MAC-10 | Ensnared came from

The skin came out on January 21, 2022, with The Dreams & Nightmares Case, which holds seventeen skins chosen from the Steam Workshop. Valve's description calls it a paint job of fairies locked inside the weapon and longing to break out. The caption reads: "They have yet to find someone they cannot fool".

What to check before buying

Choosing a particular MAC-10 | Ensnared comes down to these points:

• Float: the band of 0.15 to 0.38 is wide, so you can buy with different amounts of wear;


• there is no choosing a MAC-10 | Ensnared by pattern, as such;


• what a previous owner left on the MAC-10 | Ensnared: stickers and an applied name.

Getting the MAC-10 | Ensnared

The skin drops from the Dreams & Nightmares Case. It cannot be built through a trade-up, because it holds the lowest rank in the collection.

StatTrak and Souvenir

The skin has a StatTrak version and no Souvenir version.

Stickers and craft on the MAC-10 | Ensnared

The pale panel with the eyes already tells a story, so stickers are best placed on the gray sides and the grip. Dark and turquoise stickers pick up the glow of the panel. Bright warm stickers stand out more.

Who this wear suits

Buying the MAC-10 | Ensnared in this wear makes sense if:

• you want a gray MAC-10 with Egyptian engraving and a pale panel of figures;


• choosing by float inside the wide band of 0.15 to 0.38 works for you;


• the StatTrak version, which the skin has, matters to you.
