MAC-10 | Stalker

Origin Story

The MAC-10 | Stalker, released on November 19, 2019, as part of The Shattered Web Collection, features a custom paint job with a neon blue cat and bold yellow and black stripes. This Covert SMG from Operation Shattered Web is considered a mid to high-tier themed MAC-10, setting it apart from more common finishes. The skin's Gunsmith finish style ensures that the custom paint integrates with the weapon's details, offering a distinct appearance. While not widely associated with pro players or famous crafts, its unique aesthetic appeals to collectors seeking a themed MAC-10.

Drop Chance

MAC-10 | Stalker is Covert, a Red-tier skin, the rarest standard drop grade. From the Shattered Web Case: approximately 0.32% per opening (roughly 1 in 312). The 0.64% Covert tier rate is split across 2 Covert skins in the case. StatTrak versions drop at ~0.03% from the Shattered Web Case (about 1 in 3,125). 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 1. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New (No Recent Price): The neon blue cat and yellow and black stripes are fully vibrant and intact, with no visible scratches on the custom paint.
• Minimal Wear (No Recent Price): The overall appearance remains very close to Factory New, with strong neon color and only light edge wear beginning on less noticeable areas of the weapon.
• Field-Tested ($56.12): Visible wear begins to show as moderate edge wear on the receiver, barrel, and magazine, with a slight desaturation of the neon blue and yellow tones.
• Well-Worn ($50.25): Wear is moderately heavy, with more extensive chipping and duller colors; the neon cat and stripes are still recognizable but lose some of their punch.
• Battle-Scarred (No Recent Price): The finish is heavily worn with large areas of chipping and significant fading of the neon elements; the cat and striping remain visible but can look muted and patchy.

Model

Stalker uses the legacy MAC-10 model, introduced with Operation Shattered Web on November 19, 2019. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.
