P250 | Valence (Minimal Wear)

The P250 | Valence in Minimal Wear (MW) has a float band of 0.07 to 0.15, a tenth of the skin's whole scale. It is a Mil-Spec skin from The Chroma 2 Collection in CS2.

What the P250 | Valence looks like in Minimal Wear

A dark graphite pistol with bright blue concentric rings, like a fingerprint or the contour lines of a map. The base is graphite with a blue cast, and the rings are a saturated electric blue, lighter in places. The barrel and trigger are polished silver.

The rings run over the frame and the grip panel and spill onto the slide in a patch. The top of the slide is mostly smooth and dark. The lines are even and parallel, curling around several centers, and small dark diamonds show between the rings on the grip. In Minimal Wear the surface stays smooth and glossy.

Where the P250 | Valence came from

The skin drops from the Chroma 2 Case and belongs to The Chroma 2 Collection. Valve describes it as a modern blue-gray finish that accentuates the shape of the weapon.

What to check before buying

What changes from lot to lot on the P250 | Valence:

• float: on the P250 | Valence the 0.07 to 0.15 band is narrow, and copies are almost indistinguishable;


• stickers and a name tag that came with the P250 | Valence from a previous owner.

What the P250 | Valence costs in Minimal Wear

Factory New costs 3.12 times as much. Below, the ladder compresses: Field-Tested is cheaper by 1.39 times, Battle-Scarred by 1.70 times and Well-Worn by 1.77 times.

Stickers and craft on the P250 | Valence

The dark graphite background with blue rings holds light and silver stickers well. The rings run over the frame and grip, so dense bright stickers there argue with the artwork. For CS2, blue and graphite give a clear base for a craft.

Who this wear suits

Buying the P250 | Valence in Minimal Wear is justified when:

• you want a blue P250 with contrasting lines without the factory premium: Factory New costs 3.12 times as much;


• you want a steel-gray and blue loadout with the silver barrel;


• you can skip comparing floats: the blue rings look the same across the 0.07 to 0.15 band.
