weapon | Nightmare sits in the Overpass collection as a Common solid-color finish (internal name so_night). Valve paints selected parts in the Night Ops palette, so in inspect you get dark, blocky panels rather than flashy artwork—fine if you want the map vibe without shouting on stream.

Wear runs 0.06–0.8. On solids, that range matters: lower float keeps the Night Ops blocks cleaner; mid and high wear pushes gray into the color fields and can brighten edges where the gun sees friction. Price gaps between tiers are real, so don’t assume “common = all the same.”

Like a breeze—until it isn’t.

Release & pedigree

Live 1 July 2014 with Operation Breakout and the Overpass line. so_night is an official Valve solid finish—not a Workshop submission.

Where it drops

Overpass Souvenir Packages (Cologne 2014 through Copenhagen 2024 and other listed Majors) plus the Overpass Collection case route. Souvenir rolls add tournament context; collection drops are the steady supply path.

What to check in inspect

1. Night Ops coverage — confirm the dark scheme reads complete on the parts that should be painted.
2. Float vs. listing photos — compare gray wash and edge wear to the seller’s screenshots.
3. Theme fit — pairs naturally with Overpass loadouts; for flex skins, this stays understated.

Shopping verdict

Buy if you want a low-tier Overpass piece and you’ll inspect in-game before committing. Skip if you need loud recognition or you hate wear-driven gray on dark solids—this skin lives or dies on float.

Expert note: Common doesn’t mean “ignore wear.” Line up a few floats on Steam and C5GAME, favor the band that still looks like Night Ops—not washed-out slab—and treat souvenir vs. non-souvenir as a bonus story, not the main reason to overpay.
