SG 553 | Фантом

Origin Story

The SG 553 | Phantom, released on September 14, 2017, as part of The Spectrum 2 Collection, features a hand-painted blue and grey design with vibrant orange accents. Its Gunsmith finish style integrates painted elements with the weapon's original material, creating a modern, technical appearance. This Restricted-tier skin provides a clean and tasteful option for SG 553 users, offering a contemporary look without being a status symbol. While not a top-tier prestige item, its origin from a legacy case contributes to its appeal among collectors.

Drop Chance

SG 553 | Phantom is Restricted, a Purple-tier skin in the upper half of the rarity ladder. From the Spectrum 2 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 Spectrum 2 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 0.6. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New ($6.14): The blue and grey design appears clean and saturated, with sharp contrasts and bright orange accents, showing minimal wear on edges or corners.
• Minimal Wear ($1.67): Small edge wear begins on high-contact areas like the handguard and magwell, but colors remain vivid and the overall appearance is very close to Factory New.
• Field-Tested ($1.30): More visible wear appears on edges and corners, especially around the front handguard and magwell, with blue/grey areas potentially showing slight dulling or patches of exposed material.
• Well-Worn ($1.27): Edge and surface wear becomes pronounced, with larger chipped areas on the body and front assembly, making the blue/grey design appear more muted and the orange accents less vibrant.
• Battle-Scarred ($1.30): Heavy chipping and wear are present along most high-contact surfaces, with significant portions of the blue and grey paint worn away and orange accents losing brightness and continuity, serving as the cheapest entry point.
