Five-SeveN | Приятель

Origin Story

The Five-SeveN | Buddy features a custom paint job with camo patterns and a Counter-Terrorist figure beneath the rear sight, embodying a clear CT-themed aesthetic. Released on October 18, 2019, as part of The CS20 Collection, this skin commemorates 20 years of Counter-Strike. Its flavor text, "I've got your six," further reinforces its identity as a reliable sidearm for those who appreciate the game's tactical roots. The design visually aligns with other nostalgic elements found within the CS20 anniversary lineup.

Drop Chance

Five-SeveN | Buddy is Restricted, a Purple-tier skin in the upper half of the rarity ladder. From the CS20 Case: approximately 3.20% per opening (roughly 1 in 31). The 15.98% Restricted tier rate is split across 5 Restricted skins in the case. StatTrak versions drop at ~0.32% from the CS20 Case (about 1 in 313). These per-skin odds assume equal weighting within tier — Valve publishes tier rates but doesn't formally confirm even distribution across skins in a tier.

Skin Condition

• Factory New ($13.92): The camo patterns are brightest and most intact, with the CT figure under the rear sight appearing crisp and clean.
• Minimal Wear ($2.26): The camo remains vibrant, with the CT character well-defined, though light edge wear may begin to appear near the front of the slide and exposed corners.
• Field-Tested ($0.94): Noticeable edge wear and small surface patches appear on the slide and frame, and the overall finish looks slightly duller with more visible scratches along high-contact edges.
• Well-Worn ($1.04): Significant wear is present on major edges and faded zones are visible on the slide and frame, causing camo tones to look washed out.
• Battle-Scarred ($0.94): Heavy wear includes extensive chipping on edges and substantial faded or bare areas on the slide and frame, making the camo pattern muted and patchy.
