About the M4A4 | The Battlestar
M4A4 | The Battlestar is a Covert skin that drops from one of the 42 CS2 weapon cases, the Operation Wildfire Case.
Valve released the Operation Wildfire Case on 17 February 2016.
Each open has a 0.3200% chance (about 1 in 313) of pulling it, as one of 2 Covert finishes. One in ten of those drops is StatTrak.
It sits in tier 4 of 5 (Mil-Spec to Rare Special) and ranks #15 of 29 finishes in the Operation Wildfire Case by top-wear Steam price.
Its Steam price runs from $33.94 to $104.61 across wears, against $6.48 to open the Operation Wildfire Case (case plus $2.50 key), so every wear is worth more than one open.
