Desert Eagle | Emerald Jörmungandr (Battle-Scarred)

The Desert Eagle | Emerald Jörmungandr (Battle-Scarred) is a Restricted pistol skin wearing the anodized emerald serpent finish in its most weathered form. It's the cheapest way into a grail-tier Deagle design, though its capped float keeps the damage from ever reaching the true extreme.

Design

The finish renders Jörmungandr, the Norse World Serpent, as interwoven wavy green lines coating the entire pistol — an anodized emerald base with gray Old Norse ornaments and dark outlines, finished in metallic paint. Valve designed it, and it ships with a fitting in-game line: "Wake the gods."

Desert Eagle | Emerald Jörmungandr (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

This finish is float-capped at 0.50, so Battle-Scarred copies never climb past the midpoint of the full wear scale — their damage is milder than a Battle-Scarred skin that runs all the way to 1.0. Even so, this is the heaviest grade here: scratches and paint loss cover the slide and frame, and the green is at its most muted. The serpent pattern still keeps the skin identifiable at a glance.

Desert Eagle | Emerald Jörmungandr Rarity

Rarity: Restricted — the purple tier, sitting one rung above Mil-Spec and one below Classified. Unboxing one is uncommon, and because this finish is such a wanted piece, demand props up the price even at the most worn grade.

Desert Eagle | Emerald Jörmungandr Case and Collection

Belonging to The Norse Collection, this skin arrived with Operation Shattered Web on November 18, 2019. The Restricted tier drops about 15.98% of the time as a group (the rate is shared across the tier, not unique to this skin), and since the operation is long over, the supply is locked — the market, not fresh drops, is where copies come from today.

Desert Eagle | Emerald Jörmungandr Patterns

A paint seed governs the serpent's placement, so Jörmungandr sits differently on each copy no matter the wear. Seeds that showcase the serpent's head on the slide draw collector interest and a price bump. Heavy wear dulls the surface at this grade, but the seed still separates one Battle-Scarred copy from the next.

StatTrak & Souvenir

You won't find a StatTrak version of this finish anywhere. A kill counter is added only to skins released inside weapon cases, whereas this one came from a collection during an operation, leaving no StatTrak source. There's also no Souvenir edition, since Souvenir weapons are generated solely by Major-tournament souvenir packages and The Norse Collection was never distributed through a Major.

Desert Eagle | Emerald Jörmungandr Price

Battle-Scarred is the entry point of this finish's ladder — the least costly grade of a skin that nonetheless tops the whole Desert Eagle range on price. If you want this iconic emerald serpent for as little as possible and don't mind the wear, this is the way in. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Why doesn't the Battle-Scarred look completely trashed?

Because the finish is float-capped at 0.50 instead of the usual 1.0, its Battle-Scarred copies stop at the middle of the wear scale and never hit the harshest condition. Paired with a dense serpent pattern that hides damage well, the skin stays legible and greener than many full-range Battle-Scarred finishes.

Is the Battle-Scarred still worth buying?

If you want a grail Deagle on the smallest budget, yes. It's the cheapest grade of the most expensive Desert Eagle finish, and the serpent design remains clearly recognizable in-game. You accept the muted green and visible wear in exchange for the lowest entry price on a coveted skin.

Does the serpent seed affect Battle-Scarred prices?

It can. The paint seed is set independently of wear, so a Battle-Scarred copy with a nicely centered serpent head may still command more than one with a poor layout. Even at the roughest grade, pattern is worth checking before you commit.
