M4A1-S | Hyper Beast (Minimal Wear)

The M4A1-S | Hyper Beast (Minimal Wear) is a Covert rifle skin featuring a beastly creature painted in psychedelic blue and purple. Minimal Wear keeps the artwork looking almost pristine while sitting a clear step below Factory New in price.

Design

Built around a snarling beast in psychedelic color, the design leans on blue and purple tones for a wild, fantastical feel that stands out on the M4A1-S. The community artist frontaLOBE created it, and it carries an in-game line: "You really want to impress me Booth? Make this black light sensitive - Rona Sabri, Rising Star."

M4A1-S | Hyper Beast (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

The finish spans the full 0.00–1.00 float range, and Minimal Wear falls just above Factory New near the low end. At this level the beast artwork still reads sharp and saturated, with only the faintest edge wear if any. It's the smart middle ground for players who want near-flawless looks without paying top grade.

M4A1-S | Hyper Beast Rarity

Rarity: Covert. That's the red tier — the top class of the standard weapon grades and among the rarest skins to pull from any case.

M4A1-S | Hyper Beast Case and Collection

This finish is part of The Chroma 2 Collection and comes out of the Chroma 2 Case, which launched with the April 2015 update on April 15, 2015. Across the case the Covert tier pulls at roughly 0.64% (a figure shared among the tier's skins), so unboxing a Hyper Beast directly is a genuine rarity.

M4A1-S | Hyper Beast Patterns

There's no random pattern roll on the Hyper Beast — the beast artwork lands identically on every copy, so no paint seed or "blue gem" is worth chasing. The only things that set copies apart are wear and float.

StatTrak & Souvenir

There is a StatTrak™ M4A1-S | Hyper Beast, which adds a confirmed-kill counter; it drops more rarely and costs more than the standard skin, and its counter is permanent, staying with the item through trades and sales. No Souvenir version exists — Souvenir weapons are produced only from Major-tournament packages, and the Chroma 2 Case has never been a Major drop.

M4A1-S | Hyper Beast Price

Minimal Wear sits just under Factory New on the price ladder — a modest saving for a look that's still very close to the top grade. It's a premium M4A1-S finish that rewards buyers who want condition and value to meet. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Minimal Wear worth it over Field-Tested?

It depends on your budget. Minimal Wear keeps the beast artwork looking nearly flawless with almost no visible wear, while Field-Tested picks up light scratching for a noticeably lower price. Pay up if you want the design as sharp as it gets short of Factory New; otherwise Field-Tested is the value call.

How worn does Minimal Wear look?

Hardly at all. At this grade the psychedelic beast stays bright and legible, with wear limited to the faintest touch on the edges under close inspection. From normal viewing distance it's tough to tell apart from a Factory New copy, which is a big part of its appeal.

Does the Hyper Beast have a Souvenir edition?

No. Souvenir weapons are handed out only through Major-tournament souvenir packages, and the Chroma 2 Case that carries the Hyper Beast was never part of a Major drop. So while a StatTrak edition exists, there's no Souvenir version of this skin at any grade.
