Glock-18 | Wraiths

Origin Story

The Glock-18 Wraiths, released on September 17, 2015, as part of The Shadow Collection alongside the Shadow Boxing update, features lost souls custom painted on its slide. This Mil-Spec pistol is characterized by its dark greys and blacks, contrasted with pale, bluish-white wraith faces that give it a spectral appearance. Its flavor text, "First it pierces the shroud, then it pierces the shadow," reinforces the skin's atmospheric, ghost-themed identity. The design focuses on the cluster of ghostly faces on the slide, making it the most visible element during gameplay.

Drop Chance

Glock-18 | Wraiths is Mil-Spec, a Blue-tier skin, less common than base collection drops. From the Shadow Case: approximately 11.42% per opening (roughly 1 in 9). The 79.92% Mil-Spec tier rate is split across 7 Mil-Spec skins in the case. StatTrak versions drop at ~1.14% from the Shadow Case (about 1 in 88). 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 ($18.86): The ghostly faces on the slide are sharp, high-contrast, and fully intact, with maximum color clarity and a clean frame.
• Minimal Wear ($1.58): Slide art remains very close to Factory New, with only minor edge wear beginning to appear at the muzzle and front of the slide.
• Field-Tested ($0.85): Noticeable edge wear and small patches of finish loss appear on the slide's front and top edges, causing some ghost faces to look slightly faded.
• Well-Worn ($0.77): More extensive chipping and surface wear are present, with parts of the spectral faces, particularly near the front, partially worn away.
• Battle-Scarred ($0.75): The Gunsmith coating is heavily worn, especially around the front and top of the slide, with sections of the art substantially missing or heavily faded.

Model

Wraiths uses the legacy Glock-18 model, introduced with Shadow Boxing on September 17, 2015. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.

Sticker Compatibility

The Glock-18 | Wraiths, with its dark greys, blacks, and pale bluish-white spectral faces, pairs well with stickers in white, light blue, teal, or silver to echo the skin's highlights. Monochrome or minimalist black and white stickers also complement its horror-themed aesthetic. For optimal visibility in first-person, stickers placed on the slide are generally preferred.
