CS:GO is an exciting video game that attracts players worldwide. It’s a unique multiplayer system, various DLCs, and events, excellent in-game interaction with the players, etc., make it the most significant shooter ever. Skins are the crucial elements of the game, which entirely build the connection between the players who continuously sell and trade them. Therefore, opening cases in CS:GO or doing it cheaper on specific websites are the most popular methods to acquire new skins.
Although, the players use alternative ways of getting skins. One of them is CS:GO case battle. The players build a custom lobby where they decide the number of cases to open and confirm their readiness for competition. The lobby member with the most expensive reward wins the match, takes his winnings and the enemy’s drop. Many players compete for the skins from different collections to get the most desired one. Let’s discover the permanent leaders of the user’s attention ranking and remember the first cases with skins.
What is the Concept of Case Drop in CS:GO?
When the player opens a case from a specific collection, he starts a random mechanism. The game developers made it equal for everybody and implemented different chances to drop specific category skins.
Therefore, there are 7 rarities of the items represented in CS:GO and used during the battles:
- Consumer: it is the cheapest rarity and includes skins with medium and low design quality (the skin’s naming bar is outlined with white).
- Industrial: the group includes cheap items with the regular price of no more than $1 (the skin’s name is highlighted with light blue).
- Military: the items of such a category are considered rare, and each case includes at least 1 military skin (it’s name and class are outlined with dark blue).
- Restricted: the skins have medium uniqueness, usually costing $3-6. Once Deagle “Blaze” was one of the most desired skins in CS:GO (the rarity is represented with the purple color).
- Classified: the skins are rare and regularly appreciated by the community because most look exciting and cost average (the color for the skin’s rarity is pink).
- Covert: most items are infrequent and hard to get from in-game case drop. The “red” things always were one of the most desired. The knives build up the most significant category of the group.
- Contraband: there are 2 items of such a rarity – M4A4 “Howl” and the sticker “Howl.” Each of them costs more than $1,000, and some variations with the different float value may reach the price of $1,000,000.
Therefore, the chance of getting “industrial” skin (many usually include no consumers) is the highest, and the “covert” ones are very hard to knock out. The skin’s price also depends on its quality: the “Factory new” is the highest quality, and “Battle-scarred” is the lowest. StatTrak status also allows counting the kills during the CS:GO battle represented on the specific counter (as a rule, such weapons cost more than the standard ones).
