Skin history

Pattern features
The skin has an abstract design: about half of the rifle's surface is covered with pink and purple triangles, which are contrasted by deep black paint.
Effect of the pattern index
The pattern index determines how the texture is applied to the weapon's surface. However, there are no valuable pattern variations for this skin.
Effect of float
Float Value of SG 553 | Pulse can vary between 0.10 and 0.60, allowing the skin to be obtainable in any exterior quality category with the exception of the “Factory New” condition. As the weapon wears down, its paint slightly darkens and gets gradually erased. At high float values, the carbine loses a significant amount of paint, disrupting the integrity of the pattern applied to the gun’s surface.
