Skin history
SG 553 | Fallout Warning appeared in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on August 8, 2014. It’s contained in The Cache Collection dedicated to the eponymous map taking place in Pripyat, a city in Ukraine affected by the Chernobyl disaster. This collection was introduced to the shooter in the “Cologne 2014: Linking with Twitch” update.
Pattern features
Most of the assault rifle’s surface is colored dull red (the remaining part is gray). In the center of the gun, there is a glowing red radiation warning symbol. Additionally, diagonal dark stripes are applied to the carbine’s surface, mainly on the barrel, forend, and scope.
Effect of the pattern index
The pattern index determines how the stripes and symbols are placed on the surface of the carbine. There are no valuable pattern versions for this skin.
Effect of float
Float Value of the item can vary between 0.00 and 0.80, allowing it to be obtainable in any exterior quality category. As the weapon’s condition deteriorates, the paint on the gun's surface gradually darkens and gets erased. In the “Battle-Scarred” condition, the carbine loses a significant amount of paint, disrupting the integrity of the pattern.
Rarity and popularity
SG 553 | Fallout Warning is categorized as the “Industrial Grade” rarity and is available in a souvenir version. The skin is not popular among CS2 fans.
