Every case returns less than it costs — that gap is Valve's margin. Buying the skin you want on the open market is cheaper than unboxing it, every time. See our case opening ROI guide for the full breakdown.

Your odds over multiple opens

A 0.26% knife chance is hard to picture. This is the same number stated the way it is actually experienced — the chance of at least one, over a run of opens.

100 opens costs $312.00 and returns about $123.91 on average — an expected loss of $188.09.

A coin-flip shot at a knife takes 267 opens — about $833.04 at this case's price. Even then it is a coin flip, not a guarantee: the odds never carry over between opens. More in our CS2 case odds guide.

How CS2 Case Opening Works

Each CS2 case contains a pool of weapon skins across five rarity tiers. When you open a case with a key ($2.49), the game picks a rarity tier at fixed probabilities, then a random skin from that tier, then a float value inside that skin's own wear range. Any weapon skin has a 10% chance of being StatTrak.

CS2 Case Drop Rates

Mil-Spec (Blue)79.92%
Restricted (Purple)15.98%
Classified (Pink)3.20%
Covert (Red)0.64%
Knife / Gloves (Gold)0.26%

These odds are the same for every weapon case. They do not improve with streaks and they do not carry over — each open is independent, which is why a run of bad luck never makes the next open more likely to pay.

Which CS2 case gives the most back?

No case returns more than it costs — but they are not equally bad. These are the five cases returning the most per dollar at today's prices.

CS2 cases ranked by expected return per dollar
CaseCost per openAverage returnReturn rate
Gamma Case$5.47$4.2978%
Chroma 2 Case$6.25$4.8177%
Chroma 3 Case$5.88$4.4676%
Gamma 2 Case$5.51$4.1575%
Chroma Case$7.23$5.2472%

The cheapest case to open right now is the Kilowatt Case at $2.62 per open. Cheaper does not mean better value — check the return rate, not the ticket price.

Already own skins?

Unboxing is the most expensive way to get a skin — the panel above is that arithmetic. Selling what you already have is the other direction, and these marketplaces buy skins outright, grouped by what the money actually is, because the two kinds are not comparable.

Pays cashMoney out, to a payment method you choose.
Pays site creditBalance on that site, to spend there. It usually reads higher than a cash offer for the same skin, which is why the two are not ranked against each other.

What any of them pays depends on the item. Open a skin's page — every item in the grid above links to its own — for that skin's live payouts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the CS2 case opening odds?

Valve confirmed drop rates: Mil-Spec (Blue) 79.92%, Restricted (Purple) 15.98%, Classified (Pink) 3.20%, Covert (Red) 0.64%, Special/Knife/Gloves (Gold) 0.26%. StatTrak has a 10% chance on any weapon skin — gloves have no StatTrak version.

Is this case opening simulator free?

Yes, completely free with no signup and no real money involved. It uses real Valve drop rates and live market prices from SteamAnalyst so you can see what opening CS2 cases is actually worth before spending anything.

How accurate are the CS2 case drop rates?

We use the rates Valve disclosed in 2017, confirmed since by community analysis of millions of openings. Float values are rolled inside each skin’s real float cap, so a skin that starts at 0.10 never comes out Factory New, and prices are taken per-wear from live market data.

What are the odds of getting a knife from a CS2 case?

The gold knife/gloves slot is 0.26%, about 1 in 385 opens. Reaching even a 50% chance of one takes roughly 267 opens — and the odds never carry over, so every open starts from 0.26% again.

Are CS2 cases profitable to open?

No. Every case returns less on average than it costs to open — that gap is Valve’s margin. This simulator shows the expected return of each case from live prices, and tracks your own ROI as you open so you can watch it converge on that number.

How are the skin prices in the simulator calculated?

Prices are live market prices from SteamAnalyst, which aggregates 30+ CS2 marketplaces. Pricing is per-wear, so a Factory New drop is valued differently from a Battle-Scarred one, and StatTrak is priced separately where a StatTrak market exists.

What is the best CS2 case to open?

No case has a positive expected value, but they are not equally bad. Sort the case list by "Best return" to rank every case by how much of each dollar it gives back at current prices.

What is a StatTrak weapon in CS2?

StatTrak weapons count your kills in-game and are typically worth several times their normal version. Any weapon skin from a case has a 10% chance of being StatTrak. Gloves are the exception — there is no StatTrak glove in CS2.

Every case has its own simulator page with that case's pool, odds and expected value at current prices.
