Dual Berettas | Hydro Strike

Origin Story

The Dual Berettas | Hydro Strike, released on October 4, 2024, as part of The Armory update, is a distinctive Custom Paint Job from The Gallery Collection. It features a vibrant blue and orange color scheme, with a droplet motif that suggests the weapons are still wet. The design is complemented by flavor text that reads, "The best weapon is the one your enemies least expect."

Drop Chance

Dual Berettas | Hydro Strike is Restricted, a Purple-tier skin in the upper half of the rarity ladder. From the Gallery 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 Gallery 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.

Skin Condition

Float range 0 to 0.8. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New ($9.26): The blue and orange custom paint is vibrant and intact, with the droplet motif appearing sharp and clean across both pistols.
• Minimal Wear ($3.82): Minor wear begins to appear as tiny marks on the front edges of the slides and around the muzzle, but the overall design remains nearly pristine.
• Field-Tested ($1.64): Noticeable chipping and scratches develop on the slide tops and corners, with some underlying material becoming visible, though the blue and orange colors remain distinct.
• Well-Worn ($1.46): More extensive paint loss is evident on the slides and front ends, creating larger areas where the base material shows through and the droplet pattern starts to look disrupted.
• Battle-Scarred ($1.22): Significant wear covers broad areas of the pistols, especially on the slide tops and outer frame edges, with the blue and orange colors substantially faded and the droplet motif heavily obscured by scratches and chips.

Sticker Compatibility

The blue and orange color scheme of the Dual Berettas | Hydro Strike suggests that blue, cyan, teal, orange, gold, or yellow stickers would harmonize well with its design. White or other light neutral stickers could also provide a good contrast against the skin's mid-tone background. On Dual Berettas, stickers placed on the slide and grip areas are generally most visible during gameplay.
