M4A1-S | Liquidation

Origin Story

The M4A1-S | Liquidation, part of The Genesis Collection, was released on September 17, 2025, alongside the Show Off update. Its custom paint job features a dark base with carefully chosen red and blue highlights. The skin carries the flavor text "Quiet reflection."

Drop Chance

M4A1-S | Liquidation is Restricted, a Purple-tier skin in the upper half of the rarity ladder. From the Sealed Genesis Terminal: 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 Sealed Genesis Terminal (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 1. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New ($16.90): The dark base and red and blue highlights are crisp and vibrant, appearing to glow with minimal visible wear.
• Minimal Wear ($6.49): Minor scuffs may appear on the edges of the handguard or stock, but the overall glowing effect of the red and blue accents remains largely intact.
• Field-Tested ($3.13): Noticeable chipping and scratches begin to break up the red and blue highlight lines on the receiver and stock, revealing more of the dark base.
• Well-Worn ($1.95): Significant wear patches are present across the weapon, with the glowing red and blue accents becoming visibly disrupted and faded in high-contact areas.
• Battle-Scarred ($1.24): Heavy wear and extensive paint loss obscure much of the original design, with large sections of the red and blue highlights heavily faded or missing.
