Origin Story
The Glock-18 | Dragon Tattoo debuted on August 14, 2013, as part of The Arms Deal Collection, marking its place as one of the original pistol skins in CS:GO. Its design features a subtle dragon decal painted over a metallic base coat, creating a clean and understated aesthetic. This early-era skin is recognized for its minimalist look, often serving as a preferred base for discrete sticker crafts. With its origin in the discontinued Arms Deal Case and a very low float cap, the Dragon Tattoo maintains its status as a collectible, old-school Glock.
Drop Chance
Glock-18 | Dragon Tattoo is Restricted, a Purple-tier skin in the upper half of the rarity ladder. From the CS:GO Weapon Case: approximately 5.33% per opening (roughly 1 in 19). The 15.98% Restricted tier rate is split across 3 Restricted skins in the case. StatTrak versions drop at ~0.53% from the CS:GO Weapon Case (about 1 in 188). 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 0.08. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear. StatTrak is available in FN, MW. Factory New ($184.85): The metallic base coat is pristine and highly reflective, showcasing a crisp, high-contrast dragon decal on the slide. This is considered the premium, collector-preferred tier. Minimal Wear ($170.00): The overall appearance remains very close to Factory New, with the dragon decal and dark base clearly defined, though there may be slight softening of the metallic sheen and small edge blemishes on high-contact areas. Minimal Wear is generally seen as the value tier, offering a look almost identical to Factory New.
Model
Dragon Tattoo uses the legacy Glock-18 model, introduced with The Arms Deal on August 14, 2013. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.
