The StatTrak™ Nova | Koi (Minimal Wear) is a restricted Nova skin designed for players who care about both visuals and gameplay comfort. The Nova's rock-bottom price tag makes it a great ambush weapon for a cash-strapped team. It has been custom painted with variegated koi scales. As a StatTrak version, it includes a built-in kill counter, making it a more premium choice compared to the regular variant.
This style enables extremely customized looks in a full range of colors. The skin has been painted in a color scheme of red and white.
Different pattern indexes have no effect on the Koi finish.
This skin is not heavily affected by float variations, and its appearance stays relatively consistent across most copies on the market. The Minimal Wear version keeps the skin looking clean overall, with only small, barely noticeable signs of use on the model.
The Nova | Koi is one of 155 other Shotgun skins. The rarity of the skin is Restricted, which makes the Koi a rather rare drop with an estimated drop chance of 15.98%. Within the item structure it is a Nova Shotgun, which defines where players typically use it in their loadouts.
The Nova | Koi was first introduced to CS2 on July 1st, 2014. It was released as part of the Operation Breakout Weapon Case, alongside the "Operation Breakout" update. The skin was created by the community designer "hiyoko_prince". The Nova | Koi can be obtained by opening a Operation Breakout Weapon Case container. The skin is also part of the The Breakout Collection.
With a popularity of 85%, the Nova | Koi is currently in the top 15% of the most popular items in CS2. This popularity measurement is based on the daily sales volume and the price of the skin. As a StatTrak variant, it generally trades at a premium over the non-StatTrak version, appealing to players who care about visible kill statistics.
