AUG | Plague by mara_der and hexeth appeared in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on September 22, 2021. It’s contained in the Operation Riptide Case, including 17 community-designed weapon finishes along with knife skins as rare items. This case was introduced to the shooter along with the mentioned operation.

Most of the assault rifle's surface is covered with intertwining silver lines that resemble a spider's web at first glance. Above the magazine, these lines form a butterfly, and on the buttstock, they shape into a plague doctor with their defensive mask having glass eyes and a curved beak. The barrel, receiver, and magazine are covered with reddish spots.

Float Value of the item can vary between 0.00 and 0.76, allowing the skin to be obtainable in any exterior quality category. As the float value increases, the gun noticeably darkens, and some of its parts wear down. In the “Battle-Scarred” condition, the weapon becomes significantly darker, and the paint is erased from its barrel and receiver.

AUG | Plague is categorized as the “Mil-Spec Grade” rarity grade and is available with the StatTrak kill counter. This skin is popular among CS2 players.
