Valve has introduced a host of minor changes with the latest update for CounterStrike: Global Offensive, including newly updated character models on certain maps and the ability to boost teammates in Casual game modes.
However, since the MP5-SD is new to the game, the silenced SMG was released only for the game's casual modes including Deathmatch, Casual matchmaking and even Workshop maps. Well, with the developers releasing a brand new CSGO update today, the MP5-SD is now available to use in the official competitive matchmaking mode.
The full patch notes for version 1.36.5.4 can be found below:
