Most Stunning Fade Skins in CS2

There are many Skin series that are amazing in CS2, and we love each one. However, there’s one series in particular that the look doesn’t depend upon what the skin is on. The Fade skin looks great on guns, knives, and gloves. And yes, it’s on all three, a feat that most other skins series cannot boast about.

However, the skin series is also one of the most complicated in terms of aesthetic mechanics, and very few people understand how it works. Understanding how “Fade Percentages” and “Unique Pattern Percentages” work can be the difference between saving or overpaying for a skin you’ve been trying to get your hands on for some time.

What Makes Fade Skin Stunning?

Of course, what makes one skin more visually stunning over another is a very subjective topic. That said, we’ll use the “industry accepted” guidelines. That is, we’ll discuss what is most often accepted as being better based on which skins are worth more.

Before doing that, we need to cover how to evaluate cs2 fade skins in the first place. As you may already know or come to understand soon, there are a lot of very fine details to consider.

How to Evaluate Fade Quality in CS2?

We’ll get into the specifics of gradient effects and color transitions. But first, we want to point out some basic information you need to understand about fade skins and their value. The value of a Fade skin is based more or less on the following things:

• item type– knives, gloves, and certain weapons are more valuable than others. So that is one thing you’ll need to keep in mind. Simply because something has a Fade skin doesn’t make it super valuable. It is possible to get a Fade skin for less than $10. Keep in mind that it’s also possible to spend thousands.
• item condition– the wear level of an item can also affect its value. However, with the Fade skin, wear levels only come in Factory New and Minimal Wear. So, this factor will likely affect the value the least.
• availability and rarity– like anything, supply and demand play a part in the cost of something. Rare fade skins on sought-after weapons will fetch a higher price. It’s that simple.
• fade percentage– We’ll cover this in a bit. But, basically, higher fade percentages usually look better. Better-looking skins usually go for more money. That’s that.

Keeping those 4 points in mind is very important while judging the value of a Fade skin. However, to judge the Fade percentage, you have to know a bit about it. Let’s cover that now.

Gradient Effects  

The Fade percentage is very important for gradient effects. Gradient designs consist of the 3 primary colors—red, blue, and yellow. There is actually a fourth color, gray. However, gray is only visible when the fade percentage is lower, and the basic skin starts to shine through.

The higher the Fade percentage, the more the skin covers the item in those primary colors. And they usually transition from a vibrant yellow to a rich purple or pink.

Here’s where it gets complex. Each Fade skin has 1001 variations. Each variation is connected to the level of the fade percentage and the amount of each color in each one. For example, Skin number 43 may have more yellow present than number 678, which may both have a fade percentage of 100%.

Fade percentages range from 80% to 100%. In some cases, a skin may have a 110% fade, meaning you’ll be able to see some of the colors on the knife handle. The lower the fade percentage, the more gray you’ll see, which usually lowers the price of the item.

There are actually charts out there that list the numbers of full fade skins. You can find one here. But basically, keep in mind, more likely than not, the less gray, the higher the price.

Color Transitions

We lightly touched on color transitions by stating that some variations of the same fade percentage can have different amounts of yellow. Which is basically all there is to color transitions. Certain skins have certain percentages of colors in each variant. Do not confuse that with the fade percentage which is connected to the percentage of the skin covers the item.

So, some color transitions can be something like 90% pink, then transition to 5% blue, then to 5% yellow. Different combinations of percentages will be used based on the amount of each color present in the skin. Some combinations are more visually appealing than others, and this will also affect the price.
