Description
The Nova | Clear Polymer is a CS:GO legacy skin that carries into Counter-Strike 2, retaining its original identity while remaining relevant for modern players. It’s part of The Operation Broken Fang Collection, making it a go-to option for those who enjoy skins tied to classic Operation-era releases and the weapon’s distinctive profile.
As a Restricted rarity item, this skin is designed to be less common than Mil-Spec or Classified drops, which typically means it appears less frequently in openings than lower-tier alternatives. While exact drop probabilities aren’t publicly confirmed for every case at all times, Restricted skins generally have lower availability than standard grades within their container pools.
Players can choose from multiple wear states, as the Nova | Clear Polymer is available in: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available (Yes), allowing collectors to track weapon kills with the StatTrak counter, while Souvenir is not available, which keeps this release focused on standard collection and personal use.
Visually, the Clear Polymer finish is all about a transparent, polymer-like look—emphasizing a clean, modern aesthetic with a crisp surface presentation. The skin’s identity is further defined by its paint index: 987, and the overall “clear” styling tends to appeal to players who prefer lighter, more refined visual themes over heavy contrast patterns.
To obtain the Nova | Clear Polymer, look for it through Operation Broken Fang Case openings. Because it belongs to The Operation Broken Fang Collection, it’s also commonly discussed and searched by players specifically targeting Broken Fang weapon skins rather than broader case assortments.
In the CS community, the Nova platform is often favored by players for its distinctive silhouette and role-specific utility, and the Clear Polymer finish adds a clean, contemporary touch that stands out without being overly busy. As a Restricted skin with StatTrak support, it remains a practical pick for both collectors seeking Operation Broken Fang items and players who want a polished look in their loadout.
