USP-S Orion
(Field-Tested)About USP-S Orion
USP-S Orion applies a modern graphic treatment to the silenced pistol, combining a dark base with sharp orange and black paneling across the slide and frame. Among USP-S skins in CS2, the Orion is noted for its clean, angular layout and its roots as a fan-favorite design carried over from Counter-Strike: Source.
Release & Source
The USP-S Orion can be found in the Huntsman Weapon Case.
Float Range & Wear
The USP-S Orion is available in all conditions, from Factory New to Battle-Scarred. The higher the float value, the more scratches and wear will be visible on the skin.
The USP-S Orion is a Classified-tier skin with an estimated drop chance of ~3.2%, making it one of the rarest USP-S skins in CS2.

Frequently Asked Questions
USP-S Orion works best with black, orange, and white sticker palettes that match its sharp geometric finish. Good options include Howling Dawn for a bold orange accent, Team Dignitas (Holo) Cologne 2014 for clean black-and-gold contrast, Flammable Foil for a strong orange theme, and Crown Foil if you want a warmer metallic highlight. On the USP-S, 1-3 stickers usually keep the design readable.
USP-S Orion was not removed from CS2 as a usable skin. What changed historically is that it was removed from normal case drops tied to the Huntsman Weapon Case after a workshop-art controversy, but existing copies remained in the game. In CS2, you can still buy, sell, trade, and use Orion normally.
Yes, USP-S Orion is effectively discontinued as a regular drop. It is no longer obtainable from opening the Huntsman Weapon Case, which limits supply to existing items and any skins generated through trade-up contracts connected to its collection. That is different from being deleted or unusable in CS2.
No, USP-S Orion is not a Contraband skin. The Contraband rarity was applied to the M4A4 Howl, while Orion remained a Classified USP-S skin even after being removed from normal case availability. In practical terms, Orion is rare because of supply history, not because of a Contraband classification.
Yes, USP-S Orion can still appear through trade-up contracts using eligible skins from The Huntsman Collection. That means it is discontinued as a case drop, but not fully impossible to generate. Trade-up outcomes depend on the exact inputs used, so Orion remains limited rather than completely unobtainable.
