XM1014 | VariCamo Blue

Origin Story

The XM1014 VariCamo Blue was released on July 1, 2014, as part of The Overpass Collection with the Operation Breakout update. It features a subdued blue and grey camouflage pattern applied via hydrographic. The skin is a low-profile item from a classic map-based collection. Its visual identity aligns with other muted military camouflage designs found within the Overpass Collection.

Drop Chance

XM1014 | VariCamo Blue is Mil-Spec, a Blue-tier skin, less common than base collection drops. It has appeared across 18 tournament packages, most recently the Paris 2023 Overpass Souvenir Package, Rio 2022 Overpass Souvenir Package, and Stockholm 2021 Overpass 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 Overpass Collection, with rarity tiers drawn on a weighted system that heavily favors common grades, meaning Mil-Spec skins like VariCamo Blue 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 0.5. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is not available for this skin.

• Factory New ($18.47): The muted blue and grey VariCamo pattern is fully intact and vibrant across the receiver and upper body of the shotgun, with no visible scratches.
• Minimal Wear ($9.39): Minor edge wear begins to appear on high-contact points like the front receiver edges and top corners, but the overall camo pattern remains largely pristine.
• Field-Tested ($7.47): Noticeable wear on the edges of the receiver and leading edges of the fore-end, with some camo patches thinning to reveal the darker base underneath.
• Well-Worn ($10.30): Broader, patchier wear is visible across the camo surfaces, with more of the underlying metal showing through, especially on the front receiver and edges.
• Battle-Scarred ($21.96): Significant wear is present, with substantial portions of the blue and grey VariCamo pattern thinned or missing on high-contact areas, exposing large amounts of the dull base.

Sticker Compatibility

The muted blue and grey camouflage pattern of the XM1014 | VariCamo Blue pairs well with blue, white, grey, and silver stickers, as well as subtle blue or purple holographic effects. The receiver and rear body sticker slots are most visible during gameplay. As a subdued, non-glossy base, it serves as a low-key platform for modestly priced, color-matched stickers.
