The AWP | Asiimov is one of Counter-Strike's three iconic Asiimov finishes (alongside the AK-47 Asiimov and M4A4 Asiimov). Released in the Operation Phoenix Case in February 2014, it depicts an orange-and-white sci-fi/mecha art style painted along the AWP body — clean, high-contrast, and instantly recognisable at range.
AWP Asiimov is a covert-tier finish. Because the base wear range does not include Factory New or Minimal Wear (Asiimov starts at Field-Tested float value ~0.18), the "clean" versions in this line are Field-Tested rather than FN. Prices: Battle-Scarred $80–130, Well-Worn $130–200, Field-Tested $180–350. StatTrak adds 40–70% premium.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is AWP Asiimov Field-Tested and not Factory New?
The AWP Asiimov base finish has a wear-range floor set at ~0.18 float value — well above the Factory New range (0.00–0.07). This means Asiimov cannot drop in Factory New or Minimal Wear conditions. Field-Tested is the top wear tier available. It is intentional — Valve designed the finish to have a slightly-worn "used sci-fi" aesthetic.
How much does AWP Asiimov cost?
AWP Asiimov in Battle-Scarred trades $80–130, Well-Worn $130–200, Field-Tested $180–350. StatTrak Field-Tested reaches $350–500. Souvenir Asiimovs from historic Majors are the highest tier — six-figure sums for pro sticker crafts.
AWP Asiimov vs Neo-Noir — which is better?
AWP Asiimov is the more-recognised classic (a decade of pro use); Neo-Noir is the newer minimal-purple alternative with slightly better liquidity below $250. Both are excellent covert AWP picks under $500. Choose by aesthetic preference.
Is AWP Asiimov a good investment?
Asiimov has appreciated steadily since 2018 — driven by Operation Phoenix Case discontinuation and persistent iconic status. Not a flagship-tier moon-shot, but a reliable 20–40% per year gainer for the past 5 years. StatTrak versions appreciate faster.
