Negev | Dazzle

The Negev | Dazzle is a CS2 Heavy weapon skin with a Hydrographic finish. Blue and white zebra stripes give the machine gun a busy, angular look against dark blue components. It suits players building a blue-themed loadout or seeking a patterned heavy weapon. Regular, StatTrak™ and Souvenir versions are available, with exteriors ranging from Minimal Wear to Battle-Scarred.

Description

The Negev | Dazzle brings a blue-and-white Hydrographic finish to a heavy machine gun in CS2. Its zebra-inspired pattern covers broad surfaces, making the receiver and ammunition box central to the design. The largely plain barrel and stock frame provide a dark blue contrast to those densely striped panels. The underlying Negev emphasizes sustained suppressive fire, provided the player has time to bring it under control. This finish suits players who prefer a busy two-tone weapon rather than a restrained, mostly plain appearance. Its place in The Gamma 2 Collection also gives collectors a clear collection identity to follow. Buyers can choose regular, StatTrak and Souvenir versions, depending on which type of item they want to own. When comparing listings, the exterior, exact float value and version help distinguish otherwise similar-looking copies.

History and Origin

Negev | Dazzle was released in CS:GO on August 18, 2016, alongside the Gamma 2 Case. Its introduction formed part of the Gamma 2 Case Skins update. SLIMEface created the finish as a Steam Workshop community designer. The skin belongs to The Gamma 2 Collection, connecting its collection identity with its original case release. Valve retired the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025, ending new Gamma 2 Case drops. Existing cases can still be bought on the market and opened, so that acquisition route remains available despite the retirement. Today, buyers can also obtain existing copies through the Steam Community Market or trades with other players, without relying on a case opening.

Finish Style

Dazzle uses a Hydrographic finish to present a blue-and-white zebra-stripe design across the Negev. The striped treatment covers most of the receiver, ammunition box, pistol grip and rear stock pad. Individual bands vary in width and direction, preventing the pattern from looking like a uniform set of parallel lines. Across the large side panels, those stripes form dense angular shapes that dominate the weapon's appearance. The barrel, muzzle and stock frame remain mostly dark blue, giving the eye quieter areas between the patterned sections. Pale metal details around the front assembly add another contrast without becoming the main color theme. Small reddish accents appear near the ammunition feed and along the lower panel edges. Overall, the finish balances heavily patterned surfaces with largely plain structural parts, keeping the blue-and-white treatment as its defining feature.

Float Value

Negev | Dazzle has a float value range of 0.10 to 0.65. Its available exteriors are Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred, with no Factory New version. Regular, StatTrak and Souvenir versions are available, and that version choice is separate from the exterior's cosmetic condition.

Rarity and Popularity

Negev | Dazzle has Mil-Spec Grade rarity. Its opening chance from the Gamma 2 Case is 11.42%, so opening the case does not guarantee this particular finish. It is one of 51 machine gun skins, with documented ownership by s1mple, SPUNJ and tarik.

Why it’s Popular:

• Blue-and-white stripes create a distinctive heavy weapon look

• Dark blue components balance the busy side panels

• Regular, StatTrak and Souvenir options suit different collecting preferences

• Documented ownership by s1mple, SPUNJ and tarik

Price Range

The live Negev | Dazzle price range is $0.22 to $28.00. These bounds cover the whole skin, rather than fixed prices for any named exterior or version. Compare Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred listings by their exact float values as well as their exterior labels. Check regular, StatTrak and Souvenir copies separately, since the version is another important part of an individual listing. Before choosing where to buy or sell, match the asking price to the specific copy's details rather than treating every Dazzle as interchangeable.

How to Obtain

1. Buy Directly through Eneba Skins

One of the fastest and most straightforward options is to purchase skins directly through Eneba Skins. You can browse available CS2 skins, compare prices, and choose the items that best fit your budget.

2. Open the Gamma 2 Case

Open the Gamma 2 Case for an 11.42% chance of receiving Negev | Dazzle. The case no longer drops, but existing cases can still be purchased on the market and opened. This route offers a chance at the skin rather than a direct choice of exterior or float.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

Buy Negev | Dazzle on the Steam Community Market to select an existing listing instead of relying on a case opening. Check the listed exterior, float value and regular, StatTrak or Souvenir designation before choosing a copy.

4. Trade with Other Players

Negev | Dazzle can also be obtained through a trade with another player. Compare the offered copy's exterior, float and version with the item being exchanged, so the agreement concerns the specific skin rather than its name alone.

Trading and Investment Considerations

The Gamma 2 Case no longer receives new drops, so future openings draw on its remaining case supply. Available listings include regular and StatTrak copies across several exteriors, making version and float useful comparison points when preparing to trade. Demand strength and long-term price movement remain uncertain, so case retirement alone does not establish a profitable resale opportunity.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Retired Gamma 2 Case limits new case supply

• Documented ownership by s1mple, SPUNJ and tarik

• Distinctive blue-and-white pattern

• Regular, StatTrak and Souvenir collecting options

The editorial investment rating is medium, supported by retired case supply, accessible pricing and documented professional ownership. These factors provide reasons to consider holding the skin, but they do not establish a record of price growth. The main risk is that reduced case supply may not translate into stronger demand or higher resale prices.
