About the M4A1-S | Dark Water
M4A1-S | Dark Water is a Restricted skin that drops from one of the 42 CS2 weapon cases, the CS:GO Weapon Case.
Valve released the CS:GO Weapon Case on 14 August 2013.
Each open has a 5.3267% chance (about 1 in 19) of pulling it, as one of 3 Restricted finishes. One in ten of those drops is StatTrak.
It sits in tier 2 of 5 (Mil-Spec to Rare Special) and ranks #69 of 74 finishes in the CS:GO Weapon Case by top-wear Steam price.
Its Steam price runs from $73.97 to $97.56 across wears, against $148.05 to open the CS:GO Weapon Case (case plus $2.50 key), so even its best wear is worth less than one open.
