Today we will discuss cases. I will share useful information and my opinion on which cases are worth spending your money on.
For all the years of the existence of CS:GO, 39 cases have been added to the game, which contain more than a thousand unique and diverse skins. Now let's take a look at the statistics and see if it's worth spending your money on it.
Useful information
This table provides data on the chances of getting skins from cases
You can see from the table that we only have about 4% to get a good skin from a case, so if you want a certain skin, I advise you to get it directly from the Steam marketplace because it will be cheaper that way.
Also, if you have one of these cases:
- CS:GO Weapon Case ( ~$100 )
- Operation Bravo Case ( ~$70 )
- eSport 2013 Case ( ~$55 )
- Operation Hydra Case ( ~$20 )
- CS:GO Weapon Case 2 ( ~$13 )
- Huntsman Weapon Case ( ~$11 )
- eSports 2013 ( ~$10 )
- CS:GO Weapon Case 3 ( ~$8 )
- Winter Offensive Weapon Case ( ~$8 )
- eSports 2014 Summer Case ( ~$8 )
- Operation Breakout Weapon Case ( ~$7 )
- Glove Case ( ~$6 )
- Operation Riptide Case ( ~$6 )
- Shattered Web Case ( ~$5 )
- Operation Broken Fang Case ( ~$5 )
- Operation Phoenix Weapon Case ( ~$4 )
- Chroma Case ( ~$4 )
- Chroma 2 Case ( ~$3 )
- Operation Vanguard Weapon Case ( ~$3 )
- Gamma Case ( ~$3 )
- Spectrum Case ( ~$3 )
- Chroma 3 Case ( ~$3 )
- Gamma 2 Case ( ~$3 )
I strongly recommend that you keep them, because prices will rise and in a couple of years, cases can double or triple their price. Maybe even more.
P.S. All prices are valid for 7th June 2023
P.S.S. This is not financial/investment advice

However, the case includes iconic skins like M4A1-S | Golden Coil, and USP | Kill Confirmed. These two skins are the only reason to open this case.

#2 Prisma 2 Case ( ~$0,81 )
An attentive reader could notice that case prices were rising steadily, but I decided to break this system (sorry, perfectionists). One of the best cases that is truly worth opening is the Prisma 2 case. Other than AUG and Revolver, the skins in this case are very fine. This is one of the cases where even mil-spec skins are good.

#1 Operation Wildfire Case ( ~$2 )
Here's why Operation Wildfire Case is at the top of our list: Every single skin is gorgeous, in my opinion. There are just six mil-spec skins in this case, but they all seem to be enjoyable in my opinion. Also, if you like the Bowie knife, this case is definitely for you.

In conclusion, I want to say that opening cases is nothing more than fun. Better think about investing in cases, because in CS 2, we may not see them anymore, and everything rare is very valuable ;)
