M249 | Хьюмидор

Origin Story

The M249 Humidor, released on September 22, 2021, as part of Operation Riptide, is a skin from The 2021 Mirage Collection. It features a spray-painted brown and purple vine and flower pattern, as described in its in-game text. The skin's distinctive appearance places it within the broader category of organic, foliage-patterned spray-paint skins. While not a status symbol, it serves as a niche collector's item within the Mirage collection.

Drop Chance

M249 | Humidor is Mil-Spec, a Blue-tier skin, less common than base collection drops. It has appeared across 8 tournament packages, most recently the Rio 2022 Mirage Souvenir Package, Shanghai 2024 Mirage Souvenir Package, and Stockholm 2021 Mirage Souvenir Package.


Souvenir Packages are awarded to viewers watching live Major matches on the corresponding map, not opened from cases, so Valve doesn't publish per-skin drop odds. Each package contains one item from The 2021 Mirage Collection, with rarity tiers drawn on a weighted system that heavily favors common grades, meaning Mil-Spec skins like Humidor are a small fraction of total package contents. There are 3 other Mil-Spec skins in the collection competing for the same drop slot. New copies only enter the market when a recipient chooses to open their package, so supply trickles in over time even after the tournament ends.

Skin Condition

Float range 0 to 0.5. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn. StatTrak is not available for this skin.

• Factory New ($5.11): The brown and purple vine and flower pattern appears sharp and fully opaque, with minimal visible scratches, especially on the receiver and stock.
• Minimal Wear ($3.64): Minor edge wear or tiny surface scuffs begin to appear on the receiver, stock, and belt area, but the pattern remains very close to Factory New.
• Field-Tested ($3.30): Noticeable chipping and fading affect the brown base and purple vine/flower segments, particularly on high-contact edges of the receiver and stock.
• Well-Worn ($2.96): Heavy edge wear and broader fading are present across major surfaces, making portions of the vine/flower pattern appear broken or patchy.

Sticker Compatibility

The M249 Humidor's brown and purple palette pairs well with stickers in similar hues, including purple, pink, and brown tones, or gold and bronze foils that complement the earthy background. Stickers featuring floral, nature, or organic shapes can also echo the skin's vine and flower motif. Given its Spray-Paint finish, the skin's pattern is a repeating stencil, which generally means there are no pattern-index-based rarities or highly sought-after variants.
