Pattern and Skin Features

Float Range
The AWP | Queen's Gambit has a float value ranging from 0.00 to 1.00, making it available in all exterior conditions. Gold engravings lose shine with wear, while the black body develops a patina rather than scratches. FN and MW keep a premium look, while high floats create a darker, antique-style finish.
Drop Rate and Chance
The AWP | Queen's Gambit sits among 154 other Sniper Rifle skins in CS2. With a Covert rarity, it's an exceptionally rare find carrying an estimated drop chance of just 0.64%, making it one of the hardest sniper rifle skins to come across in the game.
Gameplay and Notable Players
The AWP | Queen's Gambit is a prestigious skin for one of CS2's most iconic and powerful weapons. While the skin itself has gained noticeable popularity, there is currently no confirmed information about professional players consistently using this particular skin in official matches.
Rarity
The AWP | Queen's Gambit carries a Covert rarity, placing it among the most elusive and sought-after sniper rifle skins in CS2. This elite rarity tier makes it a true collector's item, highly coveted by players who want to showcase something truly rare and exclusive on the battlefield.
Popularity
With a popularity score of just 1%, the AWP | Queen's Gambit is currently one of the least sought-after items in CS2. This rating is determined by a combination of daily sales volume and item price, suggesting the skin has yet to gain significant traction within the CS2 community.
