USP-S | Cyrex (Factory New)

The USP-S | Cyrex in Factory New (FN) is the top wear of the five, and the white part of the frame is still clean here. This wear covers floats 0.00 to 0.07, or 13% of the scale, because the skin's float ceiling is 0.55. It is a Restricted skin from The Glove Collection and drops from the Glove Case. A Factory New USP-S for CS2 costs 7 to 11 times what the other wears do.

What the USP-S | Cyrex looks like in Factory New

Black and white set the contrast, and red supplies the marks. The suppressor and slide are dark, almost black, while the front half of the frame with the trigger guard and the bottom of the magazine are white. Red picks out the rings and the triangle on the suppressor, the panel with CYREX on the slide and a triangle on the grip. USP TACTICAL is printed on the slide, and small technical markings run along the suppressor.

A white wedge cuts into the dark along a diagonal line across the frame. In Factory New that boundary is sharp and free of grime. The red elements are placed sparingly, like technical markers, and have not faded at the edges.

Where the USP-S | Cyrex came from

The USP-S | Cyrex was released in November 2016. Nextgenz drew it, and in Valve's catalog the finish is number 637. The Glove Case it drops from also gave out gloves as rare special items.

What to check before buying

Three things are worth checking against the listing:

• float: the 0.00 to 0.07 stretch is short, and the difference between listings falls within the margin of error;


• the name tag and stickers this USP-S | Cyrex already carries;


• whether the listing is regular or StatTrak.

The skin has no pattern variants. Every copy carries the same artwork, so there is nothing to choose by.

Getting the USP-S | Cyrex

The skin drops from the Glove Case. A contract for it takes ten skins from the rank below. Its collection has five Restricted skins, so with the ten taken from it the odds of landing this USP-S are one in five.

StatTrak and Souvenir

A StatTrak version of the USP-S | Cyrex exists. No Souvenir packages carry this finish, but a Souvenir copy can be made through the Souvenir-O-Matic.

Stickers and craft on the USP-S | Cyrex

In Factory New the white wedge of the frame is untouched, so a sticker sits on a clean background. Dark stickers stand out against the white, while on the suppressor and slide, light and red ones pick up the accents of the finish. Green and yellow ones fall outside this palette.

Who this wear suits

Buy the USP-S | Cyrex in this wear if any one of these fits:

• the white wedge of the frame has to be clean, with no darkening;


• you want a USP-S for CS2 in the tidiest possible condition and the price difference does not scare you;


• you are building a craft where the background under the stickers must be even.
