Value Analysis

At the current case price of ¥27.41, you would need to unbox a skin of equivalent value to break even. Given that Covert skins have only a 0.64% drop rate and Rare Special items (knives/gloves) only 0.26%, most unboxing results will be below the case's value. We recommend treating case opening as entertainment spending.

Buying Advice
