Counter Strike: Global Offensive - Page 94 - Video Games

When people are asking for "50k" when it comes to skin-trading, which currency are they asking for? How can i find out what my skins / keys are worth in the requested currency?

k = keys, keys are like the money in this game tradingwise. trading skins to keys and then keys to the skins you want lets you avoid the massive 15% steam vig, which gets truly ridiculous when you're selling big $ items.

for items that are worth less than the market price max ($400), the market sets the price, and you just divide that price by $2.50 to get the price in keys. ex: someone with a $50 item would generally ask for about 20k.

If it's 13-13 I would say buy b/c we can't give away rounds at that point, If it's 13-5 I would say buy b/c we have some rounds to play with.

But at 13-7, losing this round would force 2 saves and they'd be right back in the match at 13-10 with fat stacks of money.

I'd rather give them 13-8 and everyone has $5k+ to buy.

A factory new ak47 case hardened goes for what? €30 on the market?
People are asking for 60-85k for those, which would be around €120-170.

Sigh. I might just splash real money on the skins i want and just use my keys to open cases and get rid of them.

ST fn cyrex finally under 400$... so tempting but im trying to wait for the new operation to drop.

Carlton, www.steamanalyst.com is a good resource to check prices.

do you have your settings turned low? patterns like case hardened and slaughter look really ****ty at low but pretty sick at high, imo.

I have a geforce 600 series (forgot the actual number, on my phone now) and use nvidia experience for optimal settings. Even if it does look better on high settings, I'm not a big fan of the concept in general. Not like it matters when I'm all time bottom frag though

ESWC France is playing today. Was fun watching Titan basically rush every single CT round on D2 vs. some random team. They just got DDoS'd though.

Edit: if anyone speaks french, or just wants to watch the game on mute, here's a link to the stream.

its just speculation because the operation was apparently added to the steam store today. https://steamdb.info/app/730/history/ and past operations they apparently released it soon after adding within a day or two.
