M4A4 | Zubastick

Origin Story

The M4A4 | Zubastick, part of The Dead Hand Collection, was released on March 11, 2026. Its design features hand-painted teeth and orange eyes, giving the rifle a creature-like appearance. This distinctive visual identity is further characterized by its "Circa 1991" flavor text. The Gunsmith finish style allows for intricate detailing across the weapon's surface.

Drop Chance

M4A4 | Zubastick is Mil-Spec, a Blue-tier skin, less common than base collection drops. From the Sealed Dead Hand Terminal: approximately 11.42% per opening (roughly 1 in 9). The 79.92% Mil-Spec tier rate is split across 7 Mil-Spec skins in the case. 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 1. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is not available for this skin.

• Factory New ($1.49): The hand-painted teeth and orange eyes are fully intact with maximum color vibrancy, appearing sharp and clean across the M4A4's body.
• Minimal Wear ($0.34): Minor, often hard-to-notice edge wear may appear on high-contact points like the muzzle, while the main artwork remains nearly pristine.
• Field-Tested ($0.14): Noticeable edge wear and small scratches may appear across the body, with the hand-painted elements potentially showing slight fading or fragmentation in high-wear regions.
• Well-Worn ($0.11): Stronger chipping on front edges and stock areas becomes typical, making the overall artwork appear noticeably worn with more exposed base material and less uniform color.
• Battle-Scarred ($0.10): Extensive missing paint on edges and large flat regions is common, and the hand-painted teeth and orange eyes may appear fragmented or partially obscured.
