Thinking about cracking open cases in Counter-Strike 2? Here’s the lowdown on the best ROI cases, how to get them, and what your odds look like.

which case to Open in CS2?

CS2 isn’t just about sharp aim and competitive plays, it’s also boasts a massive in-game economy worth litery billions. A big part of that comes from opening cases, where players try their luck for rare and valuable items.

With the release of CS2, case openings are more popular than ever. But are they worth it? Let’s break it down.

Best ROI Cases in CS2

Case odds are tough, so if you’re going to open some, aim for those with the best Return On Investment (ROI). Based on data from csroi.com, here are the top cases as of November 2024:

CasePrice (+ Key)ROI %
Gallery Case$0.94 (+$2.49)87.53%
Kilowatt Case$0.75 (+$2.49)77.62%
CS:GO Weapon Case 3$8.43 (+$2.49)71.67%
Operation Wildfire Case$2.77 (+$2.49)70.90%
CS:GO Weapon Case 2$14.61 (+$2.49)67.75%
Horizon Case$1.15 (+$2.49)66.41%

Even with these cases, you’ll likely lose 30–40% of your money on average. The harsh truth? Opening cases is a gamble, and profiting from it takes pure luck.

How to Get Cases in CS2

1. Case Drops

Earn cases by playing the game! When you level up your CS2 account each week, you’ll get a random drop. Most of the time (99%), these come from the active drop pool, which currently includes:

  • Revolution Case
  • Recoil Case
  • Dreams & Nightmares Case
  • Snakebite Case
  • Fracture Case

There’s a slim 1% chance of getting a rare and pricier case.

2. Buying Cases

Want more cases? Buy them from the Steam Market or third-party sites like Skinport, where bulk purchases are often cheaper. Just remember, Steam takes a 15% fee if you resell.

How to Open Cases in CS2

To open a case, you’ll need a key. Each key costs $2.49 and can only be purchased in-game. Be careful—keys aren’t refundable or resellable.

Case Odds in CS2

Here’s what you’re working with when you open a case:

Restricted (Purple)15.98%1.59%
Classified (Pink)3.20%0.32%
Covert (Red)0.64%0.064%
Rare Special Item (Gold)0.26%0.026%

Most of the time, you’ll end up with a blue or purple skin, worth only a few cents.

Are Cases Worth Opening?

In short probably not since on average, you lose 60–70% of your money when opening cases if not even more honestly! Spending $100 on cases? So basically you likely get back $30–$40 in value about.

Of course, there’s a small chance of landing a rare knife or gloves worth thousands but the odds are stacked heavily against you. If you want a specific skin, buying it directly is almost always cheaper.
