A Green CS2 Loadout On The Cheap
Skins in CS2 are a huge part of what makes the game fun. There is really nothing quite like whipping out a bright green weapon and then scoring a bunch of kills with it, and that’s also the topic of today’s list. Building a full loadout of green-themed skins can be a very satisfying endeavor for CS2 players, but getting started can be hard considering how many skins there are in the first place.
That’s why today, we’ve gone ahead and compiled a list of the best green CS2 skins for your weapons and gloves that won’t immediately demolish your wallet. We picked these skins based on subjective taste, but they’re all excellent skins and well-loved by the community, so we doubt they’ll disappoint. With that out of the way, let’s get into the list!
Pistols
When you’re stuck in a dire situation in CS2, your pistol is always going to be your go-to backup plan. Every good player knows when to make good use of their secondary weapon, and for those moments you’ll obviously want to have a good-looking skin to really nail the finish. We’ve listed some good choices for green pistol skins down below.
USP-S | Monster Mashup (Minimal Wear)
For our first pistol, we have the excellent Monster Mashup USP-S. Unlike many of the more cartoonish skins in the game, the Monster Mashup skin doesn’t skew too far into ridiculousness, keeping itself tasteful. The art of a cartoon monster on the side of the weapon is laid against a simple black background, and the barrel also features light green accents. A very fun skin!
P2000 | Turf (Factory New)
P2000 skins typically keep things simple, and this also applies to the Turf skin. Instead of going too gaudy with its colors, it relies on the basic combination of white, black, and metallic green to make an impression. What you get is a fairly spartan design that has enough flavor and personality to stand out from the pack with ease.
Glock-18 | Nuclear Garden (Minimal Wear)
Bright green is the theme here, and the Nuclear Garden Glock-18 fits the bill well. While the bottom portion of the pistol is kept basic in black, the top portion features grotesque imagery of skulls floating in what seems to be radioactive nuclear fluid. Contrasting the imagery with black was a smart decision, as it keeps the design from being too bright, and it easily earns a spot on the list.
Desert Eagle | Emerald Jörmungandr (Factory New)
Simplicity is thrown out of the window with the Emerald Jörmungandr skin for the Desert Eagle, though that’s not to say it’s messy. On the contrary, the skin is actually slick and clean considering how much is going on. Varying green hues cross over each other in an organic fashion all along the pistol to striking effect. While it definitely pops out, it’s tasteful enough to fit in any player’s loadout.
Rifles
Most of your CS2 playtime is going to be spent looking down the barrel of a rifle because of how effective the weapons are at the highest level. They’re some of the best choices available, and because of this you’ll definitely want to grab some green skins for these. It’ll keep you looking snazzy at all times!
AK-47 | Green Laminate (Factory New)
Starting things off simple, we’ve got the Green Laminate AK-47. For the most part, the rifle is kept basic and effective with light texture work going all around the weapon. What sets it apart from other basic skins are the green accents going all around the rifle. They’re fascinating in all the best ways, while still keeping things grounded.
M4A1-S | Moss Quartz (Factory New)
Speaking of keeping things simple, here’s the Moss Quartz M4A1-S. At a glance, the subtle dark green sheen of the weapon isn’t instantly apparent, but as the weapon shines in the light, it quickly comes to the surface. The effect is incredibly subdued but does make for quite the aesthetically pleasing skin overall.
M4A4 | Jungle Tiger (Minimal Wear)
Are you a fan of more militaristic-looking skins? Then you’re in luck, as the Jungle Tiger M4A4 is exactly that! Decked out in army jungle camouflage, it’s a simple concept with good execution. Some portions of the weapon are kept black to contrast with the brighter green bits, but for the most part, it’s a fairly realistic skin.
AWP | Containment Breach (Field-Tested)
Bright green is back with the Containment Breach AWP, with gruesome demonic imagery all over the sides of the sniper rifle. Everything is kept in check with simple black around the weapon’s scope, barrel, and small details. It looks solid overall, and it’s quite fitting for our theme of all green weapons.
Knife & Gloves
Of course, no themed loadout would be perfect without a matching pair of gloves and knife! Knife and glove skins are some of the most popular and important when it comes to CS2, so you’ll always want to make sure you’ve got a good pair on at all times! Today we’ve listed down some of the better green-themed knife and glove skins for you.
★ Gut Knife | Gamma Doppler (Minimal Wear)
The Gamma Doppler Gut Knife is a spin on the normal Doppler skin, featuring a greener hue instead of the typical deep dark red and black. It makes for an aesthetically pleasing weapon all-around, and the cool shade of green results in a surprisingly more organic-looking weapon. Very snake-like in appearance, especially with the subtle curves of the Gut Knife.
★ Moto Gloves | Turtle (Field-Tested)
For our gloves, we have Moto Gloves decked out in bright green with the Turtle skin. Putting aside any thoughts on the color green, the Turtle skin does a lot to change the way the Moto Gloves look. Various shades of green give it a layered look, and the small bright orange accents on the gloves allow it to pop more than if it were just fully green and black.
Conclusion
CS2 has tons of skins for any taste, and fans of green skins are no exception to this rule! While most of the skins on this list are excellent choices for the most part, you’re always free to keep looking. With so many options, it’s only a matter of time before you find one that fits your tastes. The most important thing is to have fun searching!
