Five-SeveN | Nightshade (Battle-Scarred)

The Five-SeveN | Nightshade (Battle-Scarred) delivers the same floral Arts and Crafts-style hydrographic in its most worn state. It's the most affordable way to add this pattern to your inventory.

Design

Valve's description frames this finish as a hydrographic floral pattern in the Arts and Crafts style, a decorative look built on detailed linework rather than a flat color scheme. It's a Valve-made finish without an attached flavor quote.

Five-SeveN | Nightshade (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

The finish's float goes from 0.00 up to a capped 0.50, and Battle-Scarred occupies the top of that range. Because the cap stops well short of 1.0, wear here — visible scuffing and dulled color across the shell — never reaches the harshest damage a skin can show, keeping the floral outline still partly legible.

Five-SeveN | Nightshade Rarity

This is a Mil-Spec Grade skin, the entry rarity tier and one of the more common finishes to come across compared with the higher grades.

Five-SeveN | Nightshade Case and Collection

The Nightshade belongs to The eSports 2013 Winter Collection and drops from the eSports 2013 Winter Case, introduced with the Winter Offensive update in December 2013. Mil-Spec pulls like this one make up roughly eighty percent of that case's tier outcomes.

Five-SeveN | Nightshade Patterns

The floral design is fixed on every copy of this finish, so there's no paint-seed lottery and nothing resembling a "blue gem" to seek out. Wear grade alone changes the look from one copy to the next.

StatTrak & Souvenir

Both regular and StatTrak versions of this finish exist at every wear, including Battle-Scarred, with the StatTrak edition's kill counter carrying over permanently through trades. No Souvenir version exists, since Souvenir copies only ever come from Major-tournament packages, and this finish has never been included in one.

FAQ

Does Battle-Scarred completely wreck the Nightshade's look?

No — the float caps at 0.50 rather than 1.0, so even Battle-Scarred copies stop well short of the most extreme wear possible. Expect clear scuffing and faded color, but the floral pattern remains partly visible rather than fully worn away.

Why choose Battle-Scarred over a cleaner grade?

Mainly price. It's the lowest-cost way to own the Nightshade, which otherwise sits at a premium price point across its cleaner grades. If budget matters more than surface condition, this is the practical pick.

Is a StatTrak Battle-Scarred Nightshade available?

Yes, StatTrak copies exist at Battle-Scarred just as they do at every other wear, tracking confirmed kills with a counter that carries over permanently whenever the item is traded or sold.
