SSG 08 | Метрополитен

Origin Story

The SSG 08 | Rapid Transit, released on October 4, 2024, as part of The Armory update and The Gallery Collection, features a custom paint job of fictitious transit diagrams. These designs are uniquely crafted around the maps of Counter-Strike, abstracting in-game locations into a technical, map-like aesthetic. The skin's gunsmith finish combines multiple techniques to create a complex, layered look. This design-focused approach makes it a distinctive choice for players who appreciate intricate, conceptual artwork on their weaponry.

Drop Chance

SSG 08 | Rapid Transit is Restricted, a Purple-tier skin in the upper half of the rarity ladder. From the Gallery 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 Gallery 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

Float range 0 to 0.75. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New ($11.68): The custom-painted transit diagrams are crisp and fully defined, with vibrant colors and no visible wear, showcasing the technical design.
• Minimal Wear ($5.69): Minor wear appears as small nicks on the barrel and stock edges, but the transit lines and map details remain clear and legible.
• Field-Tested ($1.72): More noticeable scratches and scuffs begin to affect the barrel and receiver, potentially causing some transit lines to show breaks or chipping.
• Well-Worn ($1.65): Wear is significant across exposed surfaces, dulling the overall finish and causing the intricate transit diagrams to appear faded and scuffed.
• Battle-Scarred ($1.50): Heavy wear and large areas of paint loss obscure parts of the transit diagrams, particularly on the front end and stock, creating a heavily used appearance.

Model
