UMP-45 | Blaze

UMP-45 | Blaze is a CS2 SMG skin that puts yellow, orange, and red flames against a dark receiver. Its bright central artwork suits players who want a fiery finish without color covering every weapon part. Factory New and Minimal Wear are the available exteriors, with standard and Souvenir versions to compare.

Description

UMP-45 | Blaze gives the UMP-45 a flame-focused finish built around a black-and-metallic contrast. The weapon is a versatile close-quarters automatic, though its small magazine limits that flexibility. The artwork occupies the receiver, leaving the stock, grips, and barrel visually restrained. That placement makes the flame motif the main point of interest rather than a full-weapon color treatment. The Blaze finish suits loadouts centered on black backgrounds and warm accent colors. It also appears in the inventories of professional players device, s1mple, and m0NESY. Buyers can choose between a standard copy and a Souvenir version, then compare the exterior and exact float. Checking the individual listing image helps confirm that the selected copy matches the appearance a buyer wants.

History and Origin

UMP-45 | Blaze was released on November 27, 2013, alongside The Mirage Collection. Its debut came with the DreamHack 2013 update. Valve created the finish rather than a community designer. Today, existing copies can be bought on the Steam Community Market or acquired through player-to-player trades. Souvenir versions are obtainable from 15 Souvenir Packages. Those packages include the DreamHack 2013 Souvenir Package and the EMS One 2014 Souvenir Package. The Mirage Collection also provides a trade-up route using Industrial Grade inputs. That route can produce the Blaze as a random Mil-Spec Grade result, unlike buying a specific listing.

Finish Style

Blaze uses an Anodized Airbrushed finish, with translucent paint layered over a chrome base coat. A dark black receiver provides the background for the flame artwork. Yellow, orange, and red shapes run along its sides rather than covering the entire SMG. The brightest sections sit around the front sight and muzzle end. Darker red flames extend toward the rear, creating a visible change in color along the receiver. The stock, pistol grip, vertical foregrip, and barrel remain mostly black or dark gray. The long magazine is gray with lighter edge highlights, while the side rail and small fittings look metallic. Busy flames across the receiver contrast with the plain surrounding parts, giving the finish a concentrated rather than all-over visual character.

Float Value

UMP-45 | Blaze has a float value range of 0.00 to 0.08. Only Factory New and Minimal Wear are available. Souvenir versions are available; that version choice is separate from the float value and exterior condition.

Rarity and Popularity

The skin is Mil-Spec Grade within The Mirage Collection. Its collection acquisition chance is 1.07%, about 1 in 94 outcomes. A trade-up contract is a separate route with a random result among the collection's Mil-Spec Grade skins, so that collection chance should not be applied to contracts.

Why it’s Popular:

• Bright flame artwork against a restrained black background

• Factory New and Minimal Wear choices within a narrow float range

• Souvenir options from DreamHack 2013 and EMS One 2014 packages

• Owned by device, s1mple, and m0NESY

Price Range

The live UMP-45 | Blaze price range is $13.99 to $89.99. These bounds cover the skin as a whole, not a fixed price for any particular exterior or version. Compare Factory New and Minimal Wear listings separately, noting whether the item is standard or Souvenir. The exact float helps distinguish condition within an exterior, so the exterior label alone is not a complete comparison. To judge a CS2 skin price, check the listing's image, version, and float together before choosing a copy to buy.

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 a Souvenir Package

Open an eligible Souvenir Package that includes UMP-45 | Blaze from The Mirage Collection. The skin is available through 15 packages, including the DreamHack 2013 Souvenir Package and EMS One 2014 Souvenir Package. Opening a package does not guarantee this specific finish.

3. Trade Up Contracts

A Trade Up Contract can exchange 10 Industrial Grade skins from The Mirage Collection for 1 Mil-Spec Grade skin from that collection. UMP-45 | Blaze is a possible result, but the outcome is random among the collection's Mil-Spec Grade skins. The contract cannot select this finish in advance.

4. Buy on the Steam Community Market

Buy a listed UMP-45 | Blaze directly on the Steam Community Market to select an existing copy rather than a random result. Check its Factory New or Minimal Wear exterior, float value, and whether it is a Souvenir version.

5. Trade with Other Players

A player-to-player trade can exchange items for an existing copy of the skin. Review the offered exterior, exact float, and standard or Souvenir status before accepting.

Trading and Investment Considerations

Marketplace listings provide a route to existing copies, while Souvenir Packages and trade-up contracts provide routes to create additional ones. Professional ownership does not establish broad demand, and neither a supply trend nor reliable resale speed is clear. For a buy, sell, or trade decision, compare listings by version, exterior, and float rather than treating every Blaze as interchangeable.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Distinctive flame artwork with restrained surrounding parts

• Souvenir options tied to historical packages

• Ownership by device, s1mple, and m0NESY

• Factory New and Minimal Wear choices

UMP-45 | Blaze receives a medium investment rating, based on its distinctive flame design, Souvenir options, and professional ownership. Package openings and trade-up contracts remain acquisition routes, so rarity alone is not evidence of restricted future supply. The main risk is uncertain resale demand, with no established price trend to justify expectations of appreciation.
