• Release Date: July 10, 2014
• Price: From ~$5.71

AUG | Stymphalian

AUG | Stymphalian

• Release Date: February 14, 2018
• Price: From ~$1.30
• Quality: Classified
• Case: Clutch Case
• Collection: The Clutch Collection

This design’s combination of colors and history allows it to enjoy popularity today. In 2018, the designers of this skin drew inspiration from Greek archers and Stymphalian birds depicted on various ancient pottery, allowing these millennia-old images to migrate to the AUG skin. The AUG Stymphalian is not only visually appealing but also affordable. 

AUG | Arctic Wolf

AUG | Arctic Wolf

• Release Date: November 18, 2019
• Price: From ~$1.11
• Quality: Restricted
• Case: Shattered Web Case
• Collection: The Shattered Web Collection

AUG | Syd Mead

AUG | Syd Mead

• Release Date: August 18, 2016
• Price: From ~$1.47
• Quality: Classifield
• Case: Gamma 2 Case
• Collection: The Gamma 2 Collection 

AUG Syd Mead is well-known and popular among the best players. Aleksib, tarik and flusha have won rounds for their team more than once using this device.

The name AUG Syd Mead refers to Sidney J. Mead, the creator of concept art for franchises such as Blade Runner and Tron. Therefore, it is not surprising that the design of this rifle is techno-futuristic and has many elaborate details. This skin has a cosmic adventure feel to it.

AUG | Flame Jormungandr

AUG | Flame Jormungandr

• Release Date: November 18, 2019
• Price: From ~$178.44
• Quality: Restricted
• Case: N/A
• Collection: The Norse Collection

The design of this skin utilizes images of snakes combined with mythological motifs. AUG has another skin with snakes – it is Snake Pit. 

In Scandinavian myths, Jormungandr is a world serpent that wraps around the entire earth, and in AUG Flame Jormungandr, it braids whole of the rifle. The only downside to this design is that it falls into the most expensive item category for the AUG, along with the even harder-to-find Akihabara Accept.

• Case: N/A
