Counter-Strike 2 Streamer is Sitting on a Schrodinger’s Gold Mine of Skins and Cosmetic Cases Worth over $1.5 Million

2023’s Counter-Strike 2 doesn’t exactly replicate the experience of its predecessor, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, but it still has some very valuable skins that spark skin gambling among the community. The rarity and demand for certain in-game items in CS2 have sparked a gambling culture within the game. Players are able to use real money or in-game currency to buy, sell, or trade skins, hoping to acquire rare items. Most of these valuable items can be unlocked via cases, which are also sold at a very high price.

streamer casually flexed his highly valuable inventory full of special cases, capsules, stickers, and packages that are altogether worth over $1.5 million. Every year, Valve makes over $1 billion from CS2, thanks to case-opening and trades on the Steam Community Market.

, we can see that he easily has over 100 CS:GO ******* Cases and Operation Brave Cases. As cases, these items have more value as there is a chance of getting a highly valuable skin out of these cases, this explains why he hasn’t opened any cases yet.

Not just cases, but he also has over 70 EMS Katowice 2014 Legends, a highly valuable capsule that contains a single EMS One Katowice 2014 participant sticker. What caught everyone’s eye was his sticker collection. The streamer has three Titan (Holo) | Katowice 2014 stickers that are worth over $150,000. This is not the first time a player has flexed expensive stickers as earlier this year, a player put four stickers, worth over $200,000, on his M4A4.

His other valuable assets include Boston 2018 Cobblestone Souvenir Package, MLG Columbus 2016 Cobblestone Souvenir Package, Krakow 2017 Cobblestone Souvenir Package, Atlanta 2017 Cobblestone Souvenir Package, Cologne 2016 Cobblestone Souvenir Package, and DreamHack Cluj-Napoca 2015 Cobblestone Souvenir Package.

How Much Does Valve Earn From Counter-Strike 2?

has revealed that 400 million cases were opened by players in 2023. To open a case, players will have to purchase keys from Valve. Since 400 million cases were opened in 2023, it’s safe to say that Valve made roughly $980 million that year.

However, that’s not it, as Valve also earns money when a player sells their skins on the Steam Community Market as it takes 15% of the ***** of every rare skin as a platform fee. It’s clear that Counter-Strike 2 generates over $1 billion every year for Valve.

Introducing the concept of skins was a power move and giving players the ability to buy, sell, or trade skins made the concept much more intriguing. The idea of constantly opening packs in hopes of getting something valuable has been compared to gambling and Valve is often criticized for replicating that mechanism.
