This event brought together a huge number of professional players who use the most beautiful skins for all types of weapons. It’s time to evaluate the skins used by the best CS2 pro players. In this article from the author k1nd3r you will learn about the most striking skins that appeared at the Major in Copenhagen. You can learn more about skins in CS2 and also rate NAVI, Vitality, or Nouns CS2 team on the Profiler website.
What Skins Were at Major Copenhagen?
At such a bright event where the Navi team won, the following skins were noticed:
AK-47 | Wild Lotus
Of all the skins for Ak-47, this one attracted the most attention from professionals. It’s not surprising, because such a breathtaking design and bright color palette can leave few people indifferent. The wild lotus is made entirely in green shades, with a beautiful lotus in the very center. It costs around $4,000 and is an excellent choice for collectors.
M4A1-S | Printstream
A legendary skin that has been in the game for a very long time and still has not lost its relevance. Its whole secret lies in its simple but incredibly stylish and fashionable design. Printstream is the epitome of ideal minimalism, and for this, Printstream is appreciated by many players. The skin costs between $150 and $300 and is coveted by many players.
Desert Eagle | Blaze
A skin should always match the level of its pistol, and the Blaze does this perfectly. Its wild flame design fits very well with the style of the pistol and makes it feel like one with it. It is one of the most beautiful skins on Desert Eagle and costs about $700-900.
AWP | Dragon Lore
One of the most famous and popular skins for the most powerful weapon in the game. Truly, this skin is a legend and is so famous that even those who do not play CS2 have heard about it. It has an interesting design, which gives it an incredible price. It is one of the most expensive weapon skins, costing between $5,000 and $65,000.
USP | Printstream
Another skin from this line, which is also quite popular, and certainly one of the best for USP-S. The simple design and combination of white and black make it unique and one of the most desirable skins on the market. Printstream costs between $35 and $70.
What Affects the Price of Skins in CS2
Skins have long grown from ordinary visual additions into a full-fledged industry with in-demand products. They all differ from each other not only in design but also in price, which can easily reach tens of thousands of dollars. For example, just recently a skin for the AK-47 appeared that costs more than $2 million. But what influences price formation?
Skin Type
Skin design plays one of the most important roles in pricing. Bright, colorful, and well-designed skins will always cost more than others because the most work and effort was put into them. The price is also affected by wear and tear and the quality of the skin. The more worn the skin is, the lower the cost will be. Skins with “Factory New” quality are much more expensive than their other variations.
Float Value makes a significant contribution to the price of a weapon. Skin wear varies in numerical values such as Factory New (0.00 – 0.07), Minimal Wear (0.07 – 0.15), Field-Tested (0.15 – 0.38), Well Worn (0.38 – 0.45), Battle Scarred (0.45 – 1.00).
The Power of the Weapon And its Popularity
This also makes a significant contribution to the price, as skins on the AK-47 will often be more expensive than on the Nova. Meta weapons have more styles and come at a higher price due to their frequent use. Skins for AWP will always cost more due to the special popularity of the weapon. But this does not mean that you cannot find cheap skins on them.
Skin Drop Rarity
This is one of the determining factors. This is the reason why most knife skins are so expensive and can make you very rich when dropped. The chance of their drop is very low, but it is always justified.
What Skins Are Best Combined With Stickers?
If you are not after valuable or collectible skins, we recommend paying attention to skins that go well with stickers. This is a great way to customize skins whenever you want.
AK-47 | X-Ray
A very beautiful skin for the Ak-47 weapon, beloved by all players. The skin is made in a combination of red and yellow colors, which go well together. In addition, it has gold stickers that look great on it, adding to its high-end appearance. This style is used by many pro players, which only confirms its status. On average, X-Ray costs about $400.
AK-47 | Inheritance
Also, most of the stickers look cool on the recently released Inheritance skin, which in such a short time has become very popular and desired by most players. It is made in a simple white color, with a blue-painted pattern. This color scheme allows you to use almost all types of stickers that will organically fit into the overall color palette. Inheritance costs between $100 and $150.
M4A1-S | Black Lotus
The design of this skin looks impressive, and every player will notice with the naked eye that the creator has put a lot of work into Black Lotus. Here the dominant color is blue, in the center, there is an image of a large lotus, the appearance of which can be customized using various stickers. In addition, it costs less than its predecessors. On average, the Black Lotus costs about $20.
Final Thoughts
Counter Strike 2 is a very flexible game in terms of visual enjoyment. A huge assortment of skins, the number of which has long exceeded hundreds, is constantly replenished and expanded. More and more new skins are coming out, which differ from each other not only in design but also in price. For every CS2 player, of which there are more than 800,000 monthly, there is a skin that suits his budget and design.
