SCAR-20 | Caged (Minimal Wear)

The SCAR-20 | Caged (Minimal Wear) is a Mil-Spec autosniper skin dressed in a blue-and-purple gradient. Minimal Wear keeps that color reading strong while trimming a little off the top-grade price.

Design

A community design by the artist -AVR-, Caged covers the SCAR-20 in a blue-to-purple gradient — no logos or busy graphics, just the fade between two hues doing all the work. The finish carries a fitting in-game line that plays on the name: "That's a big weapon for such a small cage..."

SCAR-20 | Caged (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

The finish spans the full 0.00–1.00 float scale, and Minimal Wear sits just above the cleanest band. At this grade the gradient still reads vivid, with only the faintest edge wear that's easy to miss at a glance. It's the smart middle option — nearly the color depth of Factory New for a touch less.

SCAR-20 | Caged Rarity

Rarity: Mil-Spec Grade, the blue tier. It's the lowest of the colored weapon grades and the most frequently unboxed, which is exactly why the skin stays easy on the wallet.

SCAR-20 | Caged Case and Collection

Caged is part of The Genesis Collection, released alongside the Show Off update in September 2025 and pulled from the Sealed Genesis Terminal. As the base tier, Mil-Spec skins account for around 79.92% of drops from that pool (an odds figure shared across the tier), so the finish is never in short supply.

SCAR-20 | Caged Patterns

There's no random roll on this one — the gradient is fixed, landing the same blue-to-purple blend on every copy regardless of paint seed. No blue gem, no rare placement to filter for; the only real differences between copies come down to wear and float.

StatTrak & Souvenir

You'll find Caged as a plain regular finish and nothing else: no kill-counter StatTrak version and no Souvenir edition. That missing Souvenir is a matter of mechanism — Souvenir drops come only from Major-tournament packages, and The Genesis Collection was never offered at a Major.

SCAR-20 | Caged Price

Minimal Wear sits a notch under Factory New on the finish's ladder while staying comfortably in budget range for a SCAR-20. It's arguably the best-value way to run the gradient with the color still popping. Available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

How different does Minimal Wear look from Factory New?

Barely different. The gradient reads nearly as vivid, and the light edge wear on a Minimal Wear copy is hard to spot without looking closely. Since the skin is budget-priced either way, the choice mostly comes down to whether you want the outright top grade or a small saving.

Is the Caged a good budget skin?

Very much so. As a Mil-Spec finish from a large drop pool, it stays cheap while still bringing a bold blue-to-purple color to the SCAR-20. If you want a splash of personality on your autosniper without spending much, Caged is one of the easier picks to justify.

Does the pattern index change the Caged?

It doesn't. The gradient is a fixed design, so the seed number has no effect on how the skin looks — every copy carries the identical blue-to-purple fade. There's no rare variant to track down, which means you only need to weigh the wear grade and float when picking one.
