MP9 | Urban Sovereign (Battle-Scarred)

The MP9 | Urban Sovereign in Battle-Scarred (BS) has a float from 0.45 to 1.00, which is 55% of the whole scale. This Restricted skin from The Dead Hand Collection is drawn in the style of street graffiti. In CS2, buying it in this wear means the heaviest scuffing and the lowest price of the five wears.

What the MP9 | Urban Sovereign looks like in Battle-Scarred

The body is dark gray, with white and brown tags layered across it. They are hard to read, and that is intended. The contrast is held by turquoise and orange details: an orange stock and guard, and a turquoise checkered patch on the grip.

Wear in Battle-Scarred is visible across the entire body. The edges of the body and magazine lose paint first, then the turquoise accents. Wear is assigned at the drop and does not grow afterward.

• float: the band from 0.45 to 1.00 is wide, and it is better to search by the number than by the wear label;


• pattern: the MP9 | Urban Sovereign has no two different drawings;


• a name tag and stickers this MP9 already carries.

Stickers and craft on the MP9 | Urban Sovereign

The dark body with white and brown tags is already crowded with marks, so plain, large stickers look better on it. The turquoise and orange details beside a sticker set the palette: warm tones echo the stock, cool ones the patch on the grip.
