G3SG1 | Flux (Factory New)

The G3SG1 | Flux (Factory New) is a Classified autosniper skin coated in purple and silver metallic paints for a bold, high-energy look. Factory New is the top grade, showing the color at its most saturated before any wear enters the picture.

Design

Flux leans on a purple and silver metallic scheme that catches light and reads loud on a normally understated rifle. It's a community design by the artist EGO DEATH, and it carries a fitting in-game line: "A plan is a list of things that don't happen."

G3SG1 | Flux (Factory New) Float and Wear

The finish spans a float range of 0.00–0.90, and Factory New sits at the very bottom of that scale. Here the purple holds its deepest tone and the metallic flake stays bright, with no scratching to dull the surface. If you want the color exactly as the artist intended, this is the grade to reach for.

G3SG1 | Flux Rarity

Rarity: Classified — the pink tier, second from the top of the standard weapon grades and one step below Covert. It's a genuinely uncommon grade to pull from a case.

G3SG1 | Flux Case and Collection

Flux belongs to The Shadow Collection and drops from the Shadow Case, which arrived in September 2015. The Classified tier as a whole unboxes about 3.2% of the time from the case (a rate shared across the tier's skins), so most copies change hands on the market rather than straight out of a case.

G3SG1 | Flux Patterns

Flux carries a fixed design — the paint seed doesn't shuffle the artwork, so every copy wears the purple and silver the same way. There's no "best pattern" or blue-gem seed to chase here; wear and float are the only things that separate one from another.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ G3SG1 | Flux exists and adds a confirmed-kill counter that tracks your frags; it's a rarer, pricier drop than the standard skin, and the count never gets wiped, carrying over through trades and sales. There's no Souvenir version — Souvenir weapons come only from Major-tournament packages, and the Shadow Case was never handed out at a Major.

G3SG1 | Flux Price

Factory New sits at the top of the Flux price ladder as the cleanest and most sought-after grade — grail-tier money for a G3SG1 skin, a clear step above every worn condition below it. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Factory New Flux worth the premium?

If you want the purple at full strength and the metallic flake untouched, yes. Factory New is the highest grade and commands grail-tier pricing to match. Buyers who mostly care about the color popping in-game can save a lot by dropping to Minimal Wear, which stays close visually for less.

Which gloves go with the G3SG1 | Flux?

Its purple-and-silver palette pairs well with a cool, vivid loadout, so purple or violet gloves lock in nicely, while silver or gray wraps echo the metallic accents. A dark base with a splash of purple keeps the whole setup coherent without fighting the finish for attention.

Does the Flux have a StatTrak version?

Yes. A StatTrak G3SG1 | Flux tracks confirmed kills on a built-in counter that never gets wiped, following the weapon through every trade. It's scarcer and costs more than the plain finish, so expect to pay a premium over an equivalent non-StatTrak Factory New copy.
