SCAR-20 | Magna Carta

Origin Story

The SCAR-20 | Magna Carta features a distinctive purple pattern adorned with crests, scrawls, and text inspired by the historic Magna Carta document. This skin was released on December 3, 2020, as part of The Control Collection during Operation Broken Fang. Its design transforms the SCAR-20 into a parchment-like canvas, stylized in rich purple hues. The Magna Carta stands out as a collector-focused piece, primarily valued for its association with the restricted Control Collection rather than broad community hype or meme status. Its appeal lies in its unique visual theme and its place within a collection tied to the Nuke environment.

Drop Chance

SCAR-20 | Magna Carta is Mil-Spec, a Blue-tier skin, less common than base collection drops. It can drop as an end-of-match reward from active competitive play on the Control Collection item pool. Map drops follow a weighted rarity system that heavily favors common grades, so Mil-Spec drops are uncommon and Valve doesn't publish per-skin odds. There are 3 other Mil-Spec skins in the collection competing for the same drop slot. Most copies enter the market through trade-up contracts or direct purchase at a listed seller's price.

Skin Condition

Float range 0 to 0.6. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is not available for this skin.

• Factory New ($25.14): The purple body panels and the layered text and crest motifs are crisp and fully intact, showing no visible scratches.
• Minimal Wear ($22.44): The overall appearance remains very close to Factory New, with the purple color saturated and text fully legible, though minor wear may appear on high-contact edges.
• Field-Tested ($20.93): Noticeable but moderate wear appears on edges and raised surfaces, with visible fading and small chips, particularly around the barrel housing and stock edge.
• Well-Worn ($26.17): Large portions of high-contact areas show wear, with more pronounced fading of the purple, and some finer text details may appear softened.
• Battle-Scarred ($22.33): Heavy wear is present on most high-contact areas, with significant fading of the purple and exposed base material, causing the Magna Carta text and crests to be partially lost or fragmented.

Visual Theme

Hydrographic: A purple-colored pattern of crests, scrawls, and text from the Magna Carta has been applied. The dominant colors are purple with white and cream elements for the text and crests, accented by darker outlines. In first-person view, the most visible elements are the purple body panels of the SCAR-20 and the layered text and crest motifs across the main receiver and magazine area. The theme references the historical Magna Carta document, stylized in purple rather than a traditional parchment brown.
