Desert Eagle | Ночная буря

Origin Story

The Desert Eagle | Midnight Storm, released on May 26, 2015, with Operation Bloodhound, is a distinctive pistol skin from The Rising Sun Collection. Its design features a hydrographic of a stormy sea painted over a blue metallic base coat, creating a thematic look that appeals to players building Japanese or blue-themed loadouts. This skin is generally considered a budget to mid-tier option for players seeking a unique aesthetic without the premium price of other Desert Eagle finishes. The flavor text, "I don't hate you Sebastien... I pity you - Chase Turner, Coalition Defector," adds a layer of narrative intrigue to its appearance.

Drop Chance

Desert Eagle | Midnight Storm is Industrial Grade, a common skin tier, one step above Consumer Grade. It can drop as an end-of-match reward from active competitive play on the Rising Sun Collection item pool. Map drops follow a weighted rarity system that heavily favors common grades, so Industrial Grade drops are uncommon and Valve doesn't publish per-skin odds. There is 1 other Industrial Grade skin in the collection competing for the same drop slot. Most copies enter the market through trade-up contracts or direct purchase at a listed seller's price.

Skin Condition

Float range 0 to 0.75. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is not available for this skin.

• Factory New ($188.49): The metallic blue base and stormy wave pattern are pristine with a strong sheen, showing minimal visible scratches.
• Minimal Wear ($38.77): The metallic blue remains vibrant, though very light edge wear may appear on the slide, with the storm pattern still fully readable.
• Field-Tested ($19.10): Noticeable edge wear appears on the slide and around the muzzle, with some dulling of the metallic base and a more muted storm pattern.
• Well-Worn ($20.94): The blue tone shows more pronounced fading and heavier marks along the top and front of the slide, with the wave pattern looking washed out on exposed edges.
• Battle-Scarred ($19.10): Extensive edge wear and a dulled metallic sheen are present, with the storm pattern significantly faded in high-contact areas, making parts of the slide appear worn and patchy.
