StatTrak™ P250 | Supernova (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

Supernova pairs a cold teal-blue base with warm orange flecks, so the P250 reads as both dark and fiery at once. In Minimal Wear the finish looks almost identical to a fresh copy, with only faint marks on the sharpest edges. It gives nearly the full look of the skin at a lower grade.

Item type: pistol. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Field-Tested and Well-Worn. The same quality also exists as the Souvenir version.

How the skin looks in Minimal Wear

The whole pistol is covered in a dark teal and blue-grey base with dense orange and red speckles that look like glowing embers. On the slide the orange flecks gather near the muzzle and along the top, while the frame and trigger guard area show rings of concentric circles in muted teal.

Tiny scuffs can appear on the muzzle face and the sharpest corners of the slide. The concentric circles on the frame and grip stay fully clean. In game the difference from Factory New is hard to spot. Copies near the cleaner end of the range look practically fresh.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

The float of StatTrak™ P250 | Supernova ranges from 0 to 0.4; the Minimal Wear quality covers 0.07–0.15 — 20% of this skin’s scale. The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Which stickers suit it

Orange, red or gold stickers pick up the ember-like flecks, while teal or dark blue ones blend into the base. Placing a single warm-coloured sticker on the slide keeps the cosmic pattern visible.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since a low-float Field-Tested can look close to Minimal Wear.
• Look at the muzzle face and slide edges first, as these parts lose paint before anything else.
• On Well-Worn copies inspect the bottom of the grip and the trigger guard for bare metal.
• Check for applied stickers and a name tag, and whether they match the teal and orange scheme.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want an almost fresh look without paying for the top grade.
• Sticker crafters, since the wear on edges rarely interferes with placements.
• Conclusion: nearly the full look of the skin at a sensible grade.
