What is The Best Skin From The Boreal Collection?

While it is entirely subjective to judge skins based on their visual appearance, it is safe to say that the most desirable skin out of the bunch is definitely the AWP | Green Energy. The sole item of Classified rarity, this AWP skin stands out from the collection thanks to its bright neon-green color scheme and, obviously, the fact that it is an AWP skin.  

The USP-S | Tropical Breeze is also an amazing addition to the weekly free drop, boasting a floral theme with bright green colors and serving as a fantastic platform for your stickers craft.
