5 Things You Didn't Know About CS2 Skins

01

Rare Patterns Have Names

Certain skin patterns like the "Blue Gem" AK-47 Case Hardened or "Fire and Ice" Marble Fade knives have unique names and can be worth thousands more than their regular counterparts.

02

Float Values Are Crucial

Every skin has a "float value" between 0 and 1 that determines wear. Some skins like Dragon Lore actually look better with slight wear rather than factory new.

03

Sticker Crafts Can Be Investments

Applying rare stickers to specific guns can multiply their value. Some "sticker crafts" from tournaments like Katowice 2014 have sold for over $100,000.

04

Some Skins Were Inspired by Art

The popular AWP "Hyper Beast" skin was designed by Brock Hofer, a professional artist who creates monster-themed illustrations outside of gaming.

05

Trading Bans Affect Market Prices

When Valve implemented the 7-day trade hold in 2018, it drastically changed market dynamics and created new pricing patterns that still influence today's economy.
