The Nova | Koi (Minimal Wear) is a shotgun skin that stands out due to its striking custom paint job featuring variegated koi scales. Its rock-bottom price tag makes it an excellent ambush weapon for teams on a budget.
The Nova | Koi was first introduced to CS2 on July 1st, 2014, as part of the Operation Breakout Weapon Case during the "Operation Breakout" update. It was designed by the community artist "hiyoko_prince".
This skin showcases a vibrant color scheme of red and white, designed in a "Custom Paint Job" style that allows for an extremely customized look. The Koi finish is unique and does not vary with different pattern indexes.
As a Minimal Wear skin, the Nova | Koi has a float range from 0.07 to 0.15. This level of wear means that the skin retains its aesthetic appeal while showing minimal signs of use.

The Nova | Koi is classified as a Restricted rarity skin, placing it among 155 other shotgun skins. This rarity indicates that it is a relatively rare drop, with an estimated drop chance of 15.98%.
The Nova | Koi can be obtained by opening an Operation Breakout Weapon Case, with an estimated drop chance of 15.98%.
