MP9 | Goo

Origin Story

The MP9 | Goo features a distinct custom paint job that covers a grey base with a tar-like substance, evoking a dark, organic aesthetic. Released on September 14, 2017, as part of the Spectrum 2 Collection alongside the "China, are you ready?" update, this skin offers a quirky, gooey design. It is often considered a mid-tier option for players who appreciate darker sci-fi or organic looks in their loadouts. The skin’s visual identity is defined by its almost black tar-like goo shapes, which are concentrated on the right side of the receiver and magazine area, contrasting against the neutral grey.

Drop Chance

MP9 | Goo is Restricted, a Purple-tier skin in the upper half of the rarity ladder. From the Spectrum 2 Case: 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 Spectrum 2 Case (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 0.6. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New ($12.47): The dark, tar-like goo shapes are fully intact and crisp, cleanly overlaying the neutral grey base with minimal visible scratching.
• Minimal Wear ($1.70): The goo artwork remains highly vibrant and nearly identical to Factory New, though small edge wear may begin on high-contact parts like the muzzle and frame corners.
• Field-Tested ($1.24): More noticeable scratches and wear patches appear along edges and some flat surfaces, with portions of the grey base starting to show through around the muzzle and receiver edges.
• Well-Worn (No Recent Price): Heavier edge wear is present, with more of the grey base visible at corners and around the front of the gun and magazine, making the goo shapes appear partially eroded.
• Battle-Scarred ($1.29): Significant wear covers broad patches of the skin, with washed edges and dulled goo shapes; the grey base is prominent, giving the weapon a heavily used appearance.

Model

Goo uses the legacy MP9 model, introduced with China, are you ready? on September 14, 2017. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.

Visual Theme

Custom Paint Job: It has been custom painted to resemble a tarlike goo obscuring a grey base. The dominant colors are dark, almost black tar-like goo shapes over a neutral grey base. In first-person, the most visible elements are the right side of the receiver, the magazine area, and the top and side surfaces near the rear sights. The design fits into an organic slime or goo niche, often grouped with other darker toxic or slimy designs.

Sticker Compatibility

The MP9 | Goo's dark, tar-like patterns and grey base pair well with stickers featuring dark, toxic, or biohazard themes, as well as those with purple, green, or black color schemes. High-contrast stickers with bright neon, white, or acid green elements can also stand out effectively against the skin's muted background. There are no widely referenced sticker crafts for this skin.
