Nova | Wurst Hölle (Minimal Wear)

This is the Nova | Wurst Hölle in Minimal Wear (MW), a tight float band of 0.07 to 0.15, about 8% of the finish's scale. It is a Mil-Spec skin from The Overpass 2024 Collection: a dark burgundy shotgun with glowing orange spots. It has no regular case, and copies come from the souvenir package.

What the Nova | Wurst Hölle looks like in Minimal Wear

The base is dark brown, wine-brown, with a dark barrel. Bright orange spots with yellow cores are scattered over it, like glowing drips. They lie on the handguard, receiver and stock. The barrel and tube magazine stay clean.

Each spot is rounded and trails droplets at its edges. Yellow shows through in stripes between the ribs of the handguard. Valve describes the finish as painted with sausages from the Wurst Hölle beer garden on Overpass, but on the model it is the glowing spots that read. Wear on a skin like this is recorded in the float and fixed at the drop, and in Minimal Wear there is little of it.

Where the Nova | Wurst Hölle came from

The shotgun entered the game in October 2024, when The Overpass 2024 Collection came out. The name points to the beer garden on the Overpass map, as Valve's description says.

What to check before buying

Before paying for the Nova | Wurst Hölle, check these:

• the float: inside 0.07 to 0.15 it is hard to catch any difference between listings;


• stickers from a previous owner and any rename on the Nova | Wurst Hölle.

The pattern is identical across listings. In this wear the band 0.07 to 0.15 is tight, and there is almost nothing to choose by float.

What the Nova | Wurst Hölle costs in Minimal Wear

Factory New costs almost four times what this wear does. The three lower wears are cheaper:

• Field-Tested by a little over two times;


• Well-Worn by almost half;


• Battle-Scarred by more than two times.

Among the fourteen Mil-Spec Novas in this wear, the skin sits nearer the bottom of the row: four are cheaper and nine cost more. The Nova | Ranger costs slightly more. The Nova | Yorkshire, Nova | Exo and Nova | Dark Sigil are cheaper, and the cheapest is the Nova | Windblown. At the top stand the Nova | Quick Sand, Nova | Blaze Orange and Nova | Modern Hunter.

Getting the Nova | Wurst Hölle

The skin has no case. The only direct source is a tournament souvenir package, the Budapest 2025 Overpass Souvenir Package. A trade-up also yields the Nova | Wurst Hölle: ten skins one step lower, all from one collection.

StatTrak and Souvenir

The Nova | Wurst Hölle has no StatTrak™ version. A souvenir package holds it, and a souvenir copy can also be made without a package through the Souvenir-O-Matic.

Stickers and craft on the Nova | Wurst Hölle

The dark burgundy base takes light and warm stickers. Orange and yellow ones merge with the spots, while white and silver ones read on the handguard and stock. The clean barrel and tube magazine leave free space, and that is where stickers do not fight the drawing.

Who this wear suits

The Nova | Wurst Hölle in Minimal Wear is worth taking in these situations:

• you want a Nova for CS2 with glowing orange spots on a dark base;


• you want paint barely touched by wear, without paying extra for Factory New;


• you want a skin from The Overpass 2024 Collection whose price sits nearer the lower part of the row.
