Souvenir Nova | Yorkshire (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

In Battle-Scarred the Yorkshire finish turns into a patchy mix of bronze paint and exposed metal, with the gold grip section heavily rubbed. It is the cheapest way to own this design, and the rough look fits the finish's darker theme.

Item type: shotgun. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Field-Tested.

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The barrel is dark blued metal with a slight blue-violet sheen, ending in a black front sight, while the ribbed pump grip under it is black. The receiver is painted deep glossy bronze with thin gold lines along its edges, and the magazine tube cap stays plain silver metal.

Bronze paint is heavily stripped from the receiver and stock, leaving wide patches of bare metal. The gold grip section is worn through on most ribs. In game the finish reads as a scratched, mottled dark shotgun with traces of bronze. The dark barrel changes the least, as it carries little bright paint to lose.

Souvenir version

This is the Souvenir version: such copies dropped to tournament viewers in souvenir packages; the team stickers and signatures on them cannot be removed or chosen. Souvenir items never carry StatTrak™. There is also the regular version without tournament stickers.

Which stickers suit it

Gold, brown and black stickers, including holo or foil gold, blend well with the bronze body. Placing them on the receiver side keeps the classic look, while a single dark sticker on the stock keeps the gold accents in focus.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the float position within the wear range, since copies near the lower end look noticeably cleaner on the edges.
• Inspect the gold ribs on the grip and the receiver edges, as these are the first places where the paint chips.
• Souvenir copies come with stickers already applied, so check whether they suit the bronze and gold scheme.
• Look for an existing name tag or stickers on regular copies if you plan your own craft.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred

• Budget players looking for the cheapest entry to this design.
