R8 Revolver | Nitro (Minimal Wear)

Minimal Wear brings the R8 Revolver | Nitro (Minimal Wear, MW) in just below its cleanest state, still showing off the black and tangerine orange color split that defines this Industrial Grade finish. This section covers the design, where it drops from, and how the price compares across the range.

Design

The finish divides the revolver's parts between flat black and a bright tangerine orange, favoring bold color blocking over any decal or graphic. It's a Valve design, and it comes paired with a quote from Felix Riley, Commanding Officer: "Rona is as good as she thinks she is... she's just not old enough to realize she shouldn't point it out to everyone."

R8 Revolver | Nitro (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

With float running from 0.06 to 0.80, Minimal Wear falls just above the cleanest end of that range. The orange stays close to full saturation and the black panels look nearly as flat as on Factory New (FN), with only the slightest hint of softening if you look closely.

R8 Revolver | Nitro Rarity

This is an Industrial Grade finish, one tier above the base Consumer rarity among standard weapon grades. It's still a common rarity, keeping the finish easy to pick up.

R8 Revolver | Nitro Case and Collection

The Nitro comes from The 2018 Inferno Collection, introduced with the FACEIT 2018 update in September 2018. There's no dedicated case for it, so it's obtained through the collection's drop pool or trade-ups.

R8 Revolver | Nitro Patterns

Every copy shows the identical black and orange split — the paint-seed index doesn't shift the design at all, so there's no pattern or blue-gem seed to look for. Wear and float alone separate individual copies.

StatTrak & Souvenir

Only a regular and a Souvenir version of this finish exist; no StatTrak variant was ever made. Souvenir copies date back to the London 2018 Inferno Souvenir Package and have continued to appear in Major souvenir packages at events since.

R8 Revolver | Nitro Price

Minimal Wear costs a bit less than Factory New while looking almost the same, making it a strong value pick on the Nitro's ladder. The finish as a whole stays at an affordable mid-tier price point. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.
