Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Factory New and Minimal Wear for the R8 Revolver | Fade?
Factory New (FN) skins have float values between 0.00-0.07, showing minimal to no visible wear. Minimal Wear (MW) floats range from 0.07-0.15, with slight scratches or fading visible on close inspection. For the R8 Revolver | Fade, the price difference between FN and MW can range from 10% to over 100% depending on how visible the wear is on this particular finish. Some finishes hide wear better than others, making MW versions excellent value alternatives.
Is the R8 Revolver | Fade a good budget option?
Yes, the R8 Revolver | Fade is an excellent budget-friendly choice. Priced affordably, it offers the Fade aesthetic without breaking the bank. Budget skins like this are ideal for players building their first inventory or those who prefer spending on multiple skins rather than one expensive item. The lower price point also means less financial risk if you decide to trade or sell later.
What is the float value range for the R8 Revolver | Fade?
Float values in CS2 determine a skin's wear level on a scale from 0.00 (perfect) to 1.00 (maximum wear). With a float range of 0.00 to 0.40, this skin has specific wear availability that affects pricing. Lower float values within any condition category (e.g., 0.01 vs 0.06 in Factory New) result in cleaner appearances and typically command higher prices. For high-value trades, always verify the exact float value using inspection tools.
Where is the cheapest place to buy the R8 Revolver | Fade?
Prices vary across marketplaces due to fees, regional pricing, and seller competition. The Steam Community Market is convenient but charges 15% fees. Third-party markets like Skinport, DMarket, and Buff163 often offer lower prices with fees ranging from 5-10%.

What is StatTrak on the R8 Revolver | Fade?

The kill counter adds personalization value as it records your gameplay history with this specific weapon. Note that StatTrak counts reset if you trade the skin.
Can I use the R8 Revolver | Fade in competitive CS2?
Yes, all weapon skins including the R8 Revolver | Fade are purely cosmetic and can be used in all CS2 game modes including competitive matchmaking, Premier, and professional tournaments.
