The Best Skins For A Purple CS2 Loadout
Every day new players find CS2, and as such it’s important that the game is accommodating to all sorts of players. This of course also extends to skins, and if there’s one thing that CS2 is known for, it’s the game’s outlandishly diverse skin market. From loud, bright skins to the most minimal of designs, the game caters to basically every taste.
For today, however, we’re going to be putting a spotlight on the color purple. We’ll be taking a look at some of the best purple skins in the game, and then compile them in a list for your viewing pleasure. If you’re looking to make a full loadout of purple-themed weapons, then this is the list for you!
Pistols
Keeping your pistol up when needed is important in CS2, so you’ll of course want to ensure that it looks good for the occasion. We’ve perused through the ocean of CS2 skins today and selected some of the absolute best purple-themed skins available for your viewing pleasure. So, without further ado, let’s get straight into the list of the best skins for a full purple CS2 loadout.
USP-S | Black Lotus (Factory New)
Quiet and simple is the main idea behind the USP-S Black Lotus. While it may be called the black lotus, the weapon itself features subtle shades of purple as its main color. The lotus on the weapon paints the sides of the gun in subtle purple hues, making for a quiet skin that still looks great during use. A good way to start off the list!
P2000 | Acid Etched (Factory New)
The Acid Etched P2000 is a completely different beast from the last skin on the list. While that one was subtle and subdued, the Acid Etched skin makes great use of bright shifting colors to stunning effect. All of the bright yellows, blues, and greens are laid against a solid purple background, really making the design pop and stand out.
Glock-18 | Moonrise (Factory New)
Now we’re back to more simple-looking skins with the Moonrise Glock-18. As the name implies, the weapon features some artwork of a full moon, laid out against a cityscape and a striking purple sky. It’s a beautiful weapon skin, with many different elements coming into play that add small details to the pistol. Overall, just a fantastic weapon skin for every type of player.
Desert Eagle | Night Heist (Minimal Wear)
The Desert Eagle is home to some of the best weapon skins in CS2, and the Night Heist skin is no exception. This one takes a more abstract approach compared to some of the other skins on this list. It features dark blue background, with subtle purple highlights all over the weapon that add a nice stylish flair to what is overall a calm and subdued design.
Rifles
Next up, we have the rifles, by far the most prominent weapons in CS2, and some of the best-looking ones to boot. Because of how often you’ll need to use these, it’s only reasonable you’ll want to have a good-looking one in your hands at all times. We’ve once again compiled all the best-looking purple skins available, so have a look!
AK-47 | Neon Rider (Field-Tested)
For our first rifle skin, we have the Neon Rider AK-47, taking the cyberpunk aesthetic that’s become popular as of late and cranking it up to 11. As the name implies, it’s got a smattering of neon colors all around, but they’re tastefully used to enhance the design of the gun. Fun use of textures and prints also make it stand out against the crowd of simple neon designs.
M4A1-S | Hyper Beast (Minimal Wear)
Going all out with brash skins, we have the nightmarish Hyper Beast skin for the M4A1-S. By far one of the most violent-looking designs we’ve seen in CS2, it makes smart use of the black undercoat and sells the idea of the weapon being the monster itself extremely well. It’s an intense skin for sure, but there’s no denying how good it looks.
M4A4 | Desolate Space (Minimal Wear)
We now veer into more dark and dreary imagery with the Desolate Space M4A4 skin. Featuring some truly beautiful artwork being printed on the weapon. Bone-chilling imagery and cool neon colors make for a phenomenal piece, and there’s no way you’d forget this weapon’s memorable design. Clever use of purple also allows the weapon to stand out and helps it fit on this list.
AWP | Lightning Strike (Factory New)
Solid purple is a strong base for a weapon skin, and that’s exactly what the Lightning Strike AWP goes for. For the most part, the design is rather simple, featuring only a single white bolt of lightning going through the weapon, but it’s more than enough to generate a stunning effect. While it isn’t overloaded with details, the theming here is solid.
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 skins 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 some of the better purple-themed knife and glove skins for you.
★ Bowie Knife | Freehand (Factory New)
The Freehand skins in CS2 are popular for their luminescent color scheme, and that also applies to the Freehand Bowie Knife. Bright white and deep purple come together in the form of intensely detailed patterns and shapes on the weapon’s blade, and it looks great. It’s such a memorable look for a CS2 weapon, and there’s nothing else quite like it in the game.
★ Driver Gloves | Imperial Plaid (Field-Tested)
The Imperial Plaid Driver Gloves pose an interesting question. Would making a pair of plaid gloves be good idea, and would they look good in purple? The answer is a surprising “yes”, with the Imperial Plaid skin being one of the most unique and fascinating glove skins in the game. Plaid patterns are mostly absent from the game, so the design definitely stands out with ease.
Conclusion
CS2 has tons of skins for any taste, so if you’re a fan of darker purple skins, you’re in luck! We hope the skins we listed down here today appealed to you in one way or another, but if they didn’t, that’s fine too. There are a ton of different CS2 skins, so if you’re not interested in these, just keep looking! Most importantly, however, have fun!
