Nova | Ghost Camo (Field-Tested)

The Nova | Ghost Camo (Field-Tested, FT) is a Mil-Spec Grade shotgun finish showing a gray camouflage print with a hint of honest use. Field-Tested is the most budget-friendly common grade here, and the busy camo does a fine job of masking the extra wear.

Design

Design-wise it's a tactical gray camouflage hydrographic spread across the Nova in large, readable patches — deliberately low-key, no logos or bright accents. The muted, Valve-made styling is built for players who want their shotgun to disappear into a stealthy loadout rather than stand out.

Nova | Ghost Camo (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

Field-Tested lands in the middle-upper part of the 0.00–0.40 float range. Scuffing shows up more clearly on the receiver and edges at this grade, but the gray blotchy pattern still absorbs a lot of it, so the shotgun looks lived-in rather than beaten. It's the value pick for players who care more about the look at arm's length than a flawless surface.

Nova | Ghost Camo Rarity

Grade-wise this is Mil-Spec — the blue tier that forms the base of the standard weapon rankings. As the most common bracket, it's the reason the finish is so widely available and inexpensive.

Nova | Ghost Camo Case and Collection

Ghost Camo comes from The eSports 2013 Winter Collection and was unboxed via the eSports 2013 Winter Case, launched during the Winter Offensive update in December 2013. Roughly 79.92% of that case's pulls landed in the Mil-Spec tier, a probability shared among its skins. Since the case no longer drops, buyers rely on the resale market.

Nova | Ghost Camo Patterns

No seed lottery applies to this one. The camo is a fixed artwork, so it prints the same on every unit — there's no rare alignment or blue-gem tier to seek out. Wear and float remain the only meaningful distinctions from copy to copy.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak variant is available, adding a kill tracker that was minted from the eSports 2013 Winter Case; the count is permanent and stays intact when the item is traded or sold, never getting wiped. There is no Souvenir version — Souvenir weapons originate only from Major-tournament packages, and this collection was never distributed at a Major event.

Nova | Ghost Camo Price

Field-Tested is the cheapest common grade on this finish's ladder, sitting below both cleaner brackets while keeping the same overall look at a glance. That makes it the entry point into an already affordable mid-tier Nova. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Does Field-Tested look rough on this skin?

Not really. The gray camouflage pattern is busy enough to disguise most of the added scuffing, so a Field-Tested copy reads as a worked-in shotgun rather than a battered one. If you want the design for the lowest common-grade price and don't mind mild wear, it's a solid choice.

What's the difference between Field-Tested and Well-Worn (WW) here?

Well-Worn shows heavier fading and more exposed patches than Field-Tested, though the 0.40 float cap keeps even that grade from looking truly destroyed. Field-Tested strikes a better balance for most buyers — noticeably cleaner than Well-Worn while still ranking among the cheapest options.

Is a Factory New (FN) version available?

Yes, the finish runs the full common-grade ladder from Factory New down to Well-Worn. Factory New is the cleanest and priciest, while Field-Tested sits lower for players who prefer the value angle over pristine condition.
