G3SG1 | New Roots (Field-Tested)

The G3SG1 | New Roots (Field-Tested) is a Mil-Spec Grade autosniper skin with a green-and-brown vine-and-flower pattern, now with a touch of honest wear. Field-Tested is the most common way to own it and the value sweet spot of the range.

Design

A Valve-made finish, New Roots is spray-painted with a pattern of vines and flowers in various shades of green, warmed with earthy brown. It's an organic, botanical look — growth and foliage across the body rather than a tactical camo. The in-game line plays into it: "Room to grow."

G3SG1 | New Roots (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

Across the 0.00–0.55 float range, Field-Tested sits in the middle. Light scratching shows up along the edges and high spots, but the busy vine-and-flower pattern hides much of it, and the greens stay clearly readable. This is the grade most players actually run — the balance point between a tidy look and a lower price.

G3SG1 | New Roots Rarity

Rarity: Mil-Spec Grade. That's the blue tier, one step above the base grades and the most common class within its collection, which keeps the finish affordable and easy to find.

G3SG1 | New Roots Case and Collection

The finish comes from The 2021 Dust 2 Collection, which arrived with Operation Riptide in September 2021. No weapon case is attached to it; regular copies enter the market via collection drops, and the Souvenir variant came from Major-tournament packages.

G3SG1 | New Roots Patterns

There's no pattern lottery on this skin. The paint seed has no effect on the finish, so the vine-and-flower artwork lands the same on every copy — no special seed, no blue gem to track down. Copies differ only by wear and float.

StatTrak & Souvenir

This finish has no StatTrak version, which means no kill-counting variant exists. It does have a Souvenir form next to the regular skin; those Souvenir copies came out of Major-tournament souvenir packages, starting with Stockholm 2021 Dust II and continuing through later Major packages. This listing covers the regular, non-Souvenir finish.

G3SG1 | New Roots Price

Field-Tested sits in the middle of the price ladder, under the two cleanest grades but above the more battered ones. For a finish that runs premium overall, it's the most cost-effective way to get the floral look. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Does the Field-Tested New Roots look worn?

Only lightly. Field-Tested adds some scratching on the edges and raised areas, but the busy vine-and-flower pattern hides a lot of it, so the skin still reads well in a match. It's noticeably cheaper than the top grades while keeping the botanical design easy to recognize.

Is Field-Tested the best value New Roots?

For most buyers, yes. It costs less than Factory New or Minimal Wear yet keeps the floral pattern legible thanks to the busy design, and it's the easiest grade to find on the market. Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred are cheaper still if you don't mind heavier scuffing.

Is there a StatTrak Field-Tested New Roots?

No. The finish was never issued with StatTrak, so there's no kill counter on any grade, Field-Tested included. Your options are the regular skin or the Souvenir version, and the Souvenir copies came from Major-tournament packages rather than from a case.
