About USP-S | Cortex
USP-S | Cortex is a pop-art daydream sealed in a suppressor. Released in February 2018 with the Clutch Case, it gives the classic CT sidearm a surreal, brain-powered makeover. This USP-S has been painted in a Custom Paint Job style, with the Cortex finish: glossy pink “gray matter” curls across the can spelling out USP, while the slide carries a clean white panel etched with teal neurons and rippling synapse lines. The grip completes the motif with a grinning skull venting bright pink thought-smoke, all set against charcoal metallics that keep the silhouette crisp in play. Micro details—inked shading, soft gradients, and tiny hatch marks—reward close inspections without clutter. In Factory New condition, the artwork is pristine: no scuffs on the suppressor rim, no edge wear on the slide, and every candy-pink highlight remains razor-sharp and glossy.
USP-S | Cortex is a Classified pistol skin with a Custom Paint Job finish. It was released on 2018-02-14 with the Welcome to the Clutch update. Its wear range is 0.00–1.00, covering Battle Scarred, Well Worn, Field Tested, Minimal Wear, Factory New.
