Origin Story
The MAC-10 | Amber Fade, released on November 27, 2013, with the "Out with the old, in with the new" update, is a classic submachine gun from The Mirage Collection. Its design features transparent paints airbrushed over a chrome base coat, creating a warm gradient of yellow, orange, and greenish-brown tones. This simple, shiny gradient look makes it a popular choice for players seeking an inexpensive souvenir from the Mirage map or a matching Amber Fade loadout. As part of a legacy map collection, it holds a place as a mid-tier collectible, often appreciated by those who enjoy the Mirage map or the distinctive Amber Fade aesthetic.
Drop Chance
MAC-10 | Amber Fade is Mil-Spec, a Blue-tier skin, less common than base collection drops. It has appeared across 13 tournament packages, most recently the Krakow 2017 Mirage Souvenir Package, London 2018 Mirage Souvenir Package, and MLG Columbus 2016 Mirage Souvenir Package.
Souvenir Packages are awarded to viewers watching live Major matches on the corresponding map, not opened from cases, so Valve doesn't publish per-skin drop odds. Each package contains one item from The Mirage Collection, with rarity tiers drawn on a weighted system that heavily favors common grades, meaning Mil-Spec skins like Amber Fade are a small fraction of total package contents. There are 2 other Mil-Spec skins in the collection competing for the same drop slot. New copies only enter the market when a recipient chooses to open their package, so supply trickles in over time even after the tournament ends.
Skin Condition
Float range 0 to 0.4. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn. StatTrak is not available for this skin. Factory New ($44.73): Colors are most vibrant with a strong metallic shine, and the yellow, orange, and greenish-brown fade is clean and continuous across the receiver and front body. Minimal Wear ($25.01): Subtle edge dulling may appear on the barrel shroud and front corners, but the metallic sheen and gradient remain largely intact and vibrant. Field-Tested ($20.81): The metallic shine softens, and the gradient becomes more muted, with light scratches or faded zones visible on the receiver and barrel shroud. Well-Worn ($40.37): The metallic sheen is significantly reduced, and the gradient appears clearly faded, with larger worn patches and a dimmer, desaturated look on edges and corners.
Model
Amber Fade uses the legacy MAC-10 model, introduced with Out with the old, in with the new on November 27, 2013. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.
How to Obtain

It can be found on the Steam Community Market, third-party marketplaces, or various case-opening and skin trading sites.

Visual Theme
Anodized Multicolored: It has been painted by airbrushing transparent paints that fade together over a chrome base coat. This creates a warm gradient of yellow, orange, and greenish-brown tones over a metallic base. The main receiver, barrel shroud, and front section of the MAC-10 display this metallic fade most prominently. Community and database descriptions group it with other Amber Fade skins and with other Mirage metallic finishes like MP9 | Hot Rod.

Sticker Compatibility
The MAC-10 | Amber Fade's warm yellow, orange, and greenish-brown gradient pairs well with stickers in similar color families, such as those featuring reds, oranges, or yellows. Gold, foil, and holo stickers that reflect these warm tones can also enhance the metallic sheen of the anodized finish. The most visible sticker slots in first-person gameplay are typically on the main receiver of the weapon.
