MP9 | Old Roots (Field-Tested)

The MP9 | Old Roots is a Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) weapon skin built on the CS2 MP9 model, featuring the distinctive Old Roots finish/pattern. As part of the 2021 Dust 2 Collection, it’s tied to Dust 2-themed drops and later reappears through multiple Dust II Souvenir packages—making it a go-to option for players who follow Dust 2 annual skin releases.

As an Industrial Grade skin, MP9 | Old Roots is generally considered a more attainable rarity compared to higher-tier weapon finishes. While exact drop chances aren’t publicly confirmed for every individual skin, Industrial Grade items typically face broader supply across cases and collections than Covert, Classified, or higher rarities—so availability is often better for players looking to complete collections or upgrade their loadouts.

This skin supports several wear levels: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is not available for this version, meaning it does not include weapon kill counters. Additionally, Souvenir is available, which makes the skin especially relevant for collectors who value event-specific souvenir variants.

Visually, Old Roots delivers a rugged, nature-inspired motif designed to look textured and lived-in rather than glossy or futuristic. With Paint Index: 931 and a float range of 0–0.5, the skin can look noticeably different across wears—Factory New showing the cleanest presentation, while higher wear levels emphasize the more worn, battle-affected surface appearance.

In terms of where to obtain it, MP9 | Old Roots is found in the The 2021 Dust 2 Collection and appears across several Dust II Souvenir packages, including: Stockholm 2021, Antwerp 2022, Rio 2022, Shanghai 2024, Austin 2025, and Budapest 2025. It can also be located in Dust II Souvenir Highlight Packages for Austin 2025 and Budapest 2025.

Among the CS2 community, MP9 | Old Roots tends to be appreciated for its grounded aesthetic and collection-friendly rarity. It’s a popular choice for players who want a reliable Industrial Grade skin with strong Dust 2 heritage, and for those who prefer visually consistent finishes across multiple wear states—especially when paired with Dust 2-themed loadouts.
