SCAR-20 | Грот

Origin Story

The SCAR-20 | Grotto, released on January 8, 2015, as part of The Chroma Collection, features a blue metallic finish. Its in-game description notes it was sponged and brush-painted with metallic effect paints, creating a mottled, underwater-like appearance. The skin's visual identity is defined by deep blue and teal tones concentrated on the receiver and upper body of the rifle.

Drop Chance

SCAR-20 | Grotto is Mil-Spec, a Blue-tier skin, less common than base collection drops. From the Chroma Case: approximately 15.98% per opening (roughly 1 in 6). The 79.92% Mil-Spec tier rate is split across 5 Mil-Spec skins in the case. StatTrak versions drop at ~1.60% from the Chroma Case (about 1 in 63). 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 0.5. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New ($1.69): Colors are most vibrant, with a strong blue metallic sheen and a clear sponged/brush pattern across the main body.
• Minimal Wear ($1.01): Visual condition is very close to Factory New, with only subtle darkening or micro-wear on small edges and corners.
• Field-Tested ($1.11): Noticeable general darkening of the blue patina; the mottled pattern becomes less crisp and more muted, especially on the receiver.
• Well-Worn ($0.89): Blue areas appear substantially darker and dull, with the sponged pattern looking more faded and less defined.
• Battle-Scarred ($1.00): The patina is at its darkest and least vibrant, with much of the metallic effect subdued and heavier dark patches appearing at edges.
