StatTrak™ M249 | Magma (Stridsärrad)

The StatTrak™ M249 | Magma is a special skin design that features a captivating pattern with shades of red and orange resembling a volcanic eruption. This skin was introduced with the Winter Offensive Collection released in 2013.

Classified as 'Industrial Grade', this skin is quite common, but the StatTrak™ version which tracks the number of kills a player gets makes it a desirable asset among players.

The skin was added to CS:GO as a part of the Winter Offensive update back in December 2013.

The Magma skin for M249 has a decent fanbase, primarily due to its fiery design and the addition of the StatTrak™ functionality.

This skin is specifically designed for the M249 machine gun.

The key feature of this skin is its design - a vivid molten magma pattern running across the body of the weapon.

M249 | Magma was introduced in the game during the Winter Offensive update.

The skin, with its intense fiery design, contrasts sharply with the machine gun's normally cold, metallic exterior.

Designed by Valve.

Despite its relatively early release, the Magma boasts a high-quality texture and design, with the volcanic pattern clearly visible from all angles.

The Magma skin received mixed reviews from the community. Users found the StatTrak™ functionality appealing; however, the M249 isn't a widely used weapon, which affected its ratings.

The skin's introduction marked an early attempt at premium, weapon-specific customizations in CS:GO.

Despite the M249 being an often overlooked weapon, the Magma skin gained attention for its vibrant, unique design and the StatTrak™ feature.

The skin's popularity was largely influenced by its inclusion in the Winter Offensive update.

The Magma skin design was born from the idea of blending the intensity of a volcanic eruption with the raw power of the M249 machine gun.

The Magma symbolizes the destructive potential of both the weapon it adorns and the volcanic eruption it depicts.

For many players, the Magma is a nostalgic piece due to its history and unique design.

The skin sparked the trend of weapon-specific designs, encouraging designers to create more customized skin patterns.

Due to the M249's high cost and specific use-case, the Magma is rarely seen in competitive play.

Many players fondly remember the Magma skin as one of the standout designs from the early days of CS:GO skin trading.
