Oh, CS:GO cases! The treasure trove of Valve, a source of entertainment for numerous streamers, and the love and loathing of gamers. Even the most ardent opponents of the in-game donation acknowledge that they are frequently overcome with urges to purchase and open a few special boxes.
At the end of 2018, CS:GO went free-to-play as a result of the growth and adoption of trade. Gabe has made it apparent that he is happy with the money made via player-to-player transactions in-game. If we draw an analogy between a needle and a haystack in which they are looking for it, then hundreds of thousands of various CS:GO cases will play the role of a haystack, and top skins, knives, and gloves will be needles. These searches have long taken on a truly archaeological scale. And where to look? Is there any guarantee of success?
Some activists tried to answer these questions in order to help people to knock out quality items: they made tables of drop chances, and compared prices, and their dynamics. However, the main postulate of opening cases in CS:GO remains an unshakable rule: there is no exact strategy, you either get lucky or not.
Separating the truly interesting situations from the blatantly “rogue” ones makes sense if you have still decided that you want to try your luck. Taking into consideration the excitement (first of all! ), we will provide the first section of the top cases in CS:GO in this compilation. and the price of the skins that might come off of them. Gloves and knives are not taken into consideration; a separate essay will be written specifically on this subject.
Operation Phoenix Weapon Case
Best: AWP Asimov
Peak cost: > $300.
Let’s start by adding a box with Asimov, maybe the most well-known AWP skin, to the list. Although the other skins are not particularly intriguing, the popularity of the white and orange sniper rifle and the hoopla around it keep this relatively dated case near the top of the list.
Horizon
Best: AK-47 Neon Racer, Desert Eagle Code Red
Peak cost: > $900.
Another antiquated example that was published when vivid creative skins were not common. One of the most well-known AKs is “Neon Racer,” which features the iconic color combinations of blue, pink, and purple. Additionally, there is a deagle with pricey but potentially dim skin. Its cost, however, is not that spectacular.
Falchion
Best: AWP “Speed Beast”, AK-47 “Aquamarine Vengeance”
Peak cost: > $650.
The “sweetest” cases, preferably of good quality, are those that simultaneously conceal both the AWP and the AK-47. In this collection, there are only two such instances. Market prices for well-known trunks are rarely low, and neither the actual quality of the coloration nor its aesthetic value is really significant.
CS:GO Weapon Case #1
Best: AWP “Thunderbolt”, AK-47 “Surface Hardened”
Peak cost: > $1000.
For comparison, consider the second scenario, which features an AWP and an AK-47. The infamous AWP sniper rifle is a very dangerous and highly effective weapon, easily recognizable by its distinctive firing sound and the brutal “one shot, one kill” rule. An anodized effect paint was applied to the metal base in the form of lightning bolts. Sometimes you don’t have to hit the same spot twice.
Hydra
Best: M4A4 Hellfire, Five-Seven Speed Beast, and Great Demon AWP
Peak price: above $1600.
The new operation added a case with 17 skins for weapons. Players have already drooled over Oni Taiji for AWP, Hyper Beast for Five-SeveN, Hellfire for M4A1, Sugar Rush for Galil AR, and more. Today’s choice is led by the Hydra case.
