AUG | Arctic Wolf

Origin Story

The AUG | Arctic Wolf features a custom paint job resembling the white coat of an arctic wolf, giving the weapon a distinctive thematic design. Released on November 19, 2019, as part of The Shattered Web Collection during Operation Shattered Web, it quickly became a solid choice for players seeking a unique aesthetic. While not associated with any specific pro players or famous crafts, its thematic appeal and connection to the discontinued Shattered Web Collection make it a notable item for collectors.

Drop Chance

AUG | Arctic Wolf is Restricted, a Purple-tier skin in the upper half of the rarity ladder. From the Shattered Web 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 Shattered Web 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.

Float range 0 to 0.7. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New ($33.35): The white and light gray fur pattern is crisp and vibrant, showing almost no scratches or chipping on the handguard, receiver, and scope.
• Minimal Wear ($5.80): The fur-like pattern remains clear with only small, localized edge wear beginning on high-contact corners, preserving most of the clean look.
• Field-Tested ($2.60): Edge wear becomes more apparent on the fore-end, magazine lip, and receiver corners, with scratches and small bare patches visible, though the white and gray pattern remains distinct.
• Well-Worn ($3.01): Chipping and scratching are moderately heavy on prominent edges, with more of the darker base tone visible, and the fur pattern may appear more interrupted and muted.
• Battle-Scarred ($2.38): Significant chipping and pattern erosion are present across the fore-end and exposed corners, with the white and light gray tones looking faded and irregular due to extensive wear.
