Are you looking for an exhaustive list that includes the top 10 AK-47 skins in Counter-Strike 2, then you are at the right place.
Top 10 AK-47 skins in Counter-Strike 2 |
Counter-Strike 2 is one of those games where weapons are a definitive part of the gameplay. The video game wouldn't be nearly as much fun without the variety of available weapons as well as their customizability.
Among them, AK-47 is the all-rounder. It adds the accuracy of a sniper rifle to the thrust of a machine gun. And like both of them, it is entirely customizable in Counter-Strike 2. A plethora of themes and designs are available for it. In fact, there are so many that it's easy for a beginner to get lost in them. This list is meant for just such people.
Top 10 AK-47 skins in Counter-Strike 2
1. AK-47 Case Hardened
The Case Hardened AK-17 skin was part of the Arms Deal update and the Arms Deal Collection. Wood charcoal was applied to it at a great temperature which imparted it its blue hue. We can safely say it's one of the best skins in Counter-Strike 2.
This skin features all five skin exteriors with the StatTrak counterparts. Open the CS:GO Weapon Case to purchase this skin at a cost varying from $100 to $500. Fun fact: the Case Hardened skin's all blue variant is one of the most expensive skins in the CS2 game, priced at whopping $1000000. Its flavor text reads, "A little color never hurt anyone."
2. AK-47 Asiimov
The AK-47 Asiimov was introduced in 2018 with the Welcome to the Danger Zone update and quickly became one of the most beloved skins in the entire game. It is based on a sci-fi design and found in the Danger Zone Case. This skin goes especially well with a white CS2 loadout.
All five skin exteriors along with their StatTrak counterparts are available with this skin from somewhere between $20 and $500. The price is, of course, highly dependent on the version and quality of the skin. The flavor text reads, "Anyone can predict the future… a visionary shapes it."
3. AK-47 Gold Arabesque
Gold is rare and so is the AK-47 Gold Arabesque skin in Counter-Strike 2. Added to the game with the Operation Riptide update, this skin is, as the name suggests, painted gold with various parts of the skin featuring different accents.
The Gold Arabesque is part of the 2021 Dust 2 collection and is available in all five skin exteriors, sadly without their StatTrak attached. In place of it, they do have a Souvenir variant. The selling point for this skin is its rarity and that is precisely the reason for its unusually high price tag, that is, upwards of $1200 on the community market. It's flavor text reads, "What other tricks does Booth have up his sleeve?"
4. AK-47 Fire Serpent
The AK-47 Fire Serpent skin ranks among the oldest skins in Counter-Strike 2, introduced way back in September 2013. The description says it is a memento from Ruins, now being sold with a fire serpent motif painted on it.
The Fire Serpent skin is found by opening the Operation Bravo Case with all five skin exteriors and their StatTrak variants. It's price varies between $500 and $1000. The flavor text reads "If you want to survive in the streets, learn to spit fire."
5. AK-47 Vulcan
Introduced in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive back in May 2014 during the The Hunt Begins update, the AK-47 Vulcan skin is among the most popular current ones. It is available in all five skin exteriors with their StatTrak variants.
This skin can be obtained by opening the Huntsman Weapon Case. The cost varies widely between $50 and $500. Surprisingly, the StatTrak Factory New version can easily be sold for more than $1000. It has no flavor text.
6. AK-47 Bloodsport
Part of the Take a trip to the Canals update, the AK-47 Bloodsport skin takes after that very theme. Covered with stickers, logos, and decals over red and black hydrographic, it is a staple of professional players, which adds to its status. This skin is part of the Spectrum Collection.
The AK-47 Bloodsport is obtained by opening the Spectrum case with all five skin exteriors along with their StatTrak variants. This skin's cost starts from around $500. It has no flavor text.
7. AK-47 Black Laminate
The AK-47 Black Laminate is just a Mil-Spec rifle with a laminate stock, part of the Vertigo Collection. This skin was added to Counter-Strike 2 in August 2013 with the Arms Deal update. All five skin exteriors are available, but unfortunately, without the StatTrak variants. However, its Souvenir versions are available.
The Black Laminate's value is much lower compared to the other skins on this list. It sits somewhere in the range of $20-$40. Its flavor text reads, "Co-driver wanted."
8. AK-47 Neon Revolution
The AK-47 Neon Revolution is a covert rifle that became a part of Counter-Strike 2 in August 2016. It came with the Double Exposure update. It is part of the Gamma 2 Collection so, of course, it can be obtained by opening the Gamma 2 Case.
This skin has a variety of drip-painted hydrographic decals with a market price of between $15 and $50. All five skin exteriors are available along with their StatTrak variants. It has no flavor text.
9. AK-47 Frontside Misty
Anything with arctic colors is among the best. That is why the AK-47 Frontside Misty is on this list. It is a classified rifle with a design done in arctic colors. Added to the game in 2015 during the Shadow Boxing update, it is part of the Shadow Case.
All five skin exteriors with their StatTrak variants are available with this skin. Its cost ranges from $10 to $50. The flavor text reads "I like to work in the snow… it always leaves a pretty picture – Javier Alviso, Fist of the Phoenix."
10. AK-47 Wild Lotus
Second only to the Gold Arabesque, the AK-47 Wild Lotus is a rare skin in Counter-Strike 2. It was christened into the game in 2019 with the Operation Shattered Web update. An orange lotus on a green background adorns this skin's surface.
This skin is part of the The St.Marc Collection with all five skin exteriors. Sadly, neither the StatTrak variant nor the Souvenir one is available. Interestingly enough, at the time of writing this, there is absolutely zero listing of this skin on the market owing to its rarity. Its flavor text reads "Muck or nettles."
Skins are the best way to have fantastic fun with a single weapon. And although this is by no means an exhaustive list, we'd wager you won't find many skins for the AK-47 in Counter-Strike 2 that would beat the ones we've listed.
