R8 Revolver | Nitro

Origin Story

The R8 Revolver | Nitro, released on September 1, 2018, as part of The 2018 Inferno Collection, features individual parts spray-painted in black and tangerine orange. This high-contrast, industrial look is visually defined by its painted body panels. The skin was introduced alongside the FACEIT 2018 - Ways to Watch event, from which souvenir versions are available. Its demand is largely influenced by its collection and souvenir scarcity.

Drop Chance

R8 Revolver | Nitro is Industrial Grade, a common skin tier, one step above Consumer Grade. It has appeared across 11 tournament packages, most recently the Rio 2022 Inferno Souvenir Package, Shanghai 2024 Inferno Souvenir Package, and Stockholm 2021 Inferno Souvenir Package.


Souvenir Packages are awarded to viewers watching live Major matches on the corresponding map, not opened from cases, so Valve doesn't publish per-skin drop odds. Each package contains one item from The 2018 Inferno Collection, with rarity tiers drawn on a weighted system that heavily favors common grades, meaning Industrial Grade skins like Nitro are a small fraction of total package contents. There are 3 other Industrial Grade skins in the collection competing for the same drop slot. New copies only enter the market when a recipient chooses to open their package, so supply trickles in over time even after the tournament ends.

Skin Condition

Float range 0.06 to 0.8. Exteriors: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is not available for this skin.

• Minimal Wear ($0.38): The black and tangerine orange spray-painted parts show their strongest contrast and cleanest coverage. Only slight edge wear appears on the spray-painted surfaces, maintaining a clean look.
• Field-Tested ($0.15): Paint loss becomes more noticeable on handling edges and high-contact points, revealing some underlying material.
• Well-Worn ($0.12): Wear is obvious, with reduced paint coverage across the black and orange areas and a visibly rougher appearance.
• Battle-Scarred ($0.12): The highest wear exposes the most base material and significantly weakens the orange and black paint coverage.

Model

Nitro uses the legacy R8 Revolver model, introduced with FACEIT 2018 – Ways to Watch on September 1, 2018. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.

How to Obtain

The R8 Revolver | Nitro was originally distributed through Souvenir Packages from The 2018 Inferno Collection, such as the Antwerp 2022 Inferno Souvenir Package and the Katowice 2019 Inferno Souvenir Package.

Consequently, today's supply is primarily found on the Steam Community Market, third-party marketplaces, or skin trading sites, where players can purchase copies directly from other sellers.
