Case Scanner Counter-Strike

I wonder why do you guys think about this scanner thing that replaced the case opening feature in Counter Strike in some countries?
Do you like it or no?
Not sure what that is. I don't open cases. I sell them instantly. That shit is gambling and the worst part of CS. Iv been playing CS since 1.5 in 1999 or 2000? The case thing and skins ruined it. I do still play though, just got done actually....

Here is a short vid that explains the diff between the old and new system, they did it because some countries banned online gambling and the case system was considered as gambling (which is true)

Its def gambling. I think currently New York is suing Valve because of it. The online gambling in games has become rampant. Shit even kids games have them, like Roblox and what not.

Yeah that’s terrible, and the biggest content creators are sponsored by cs gambling websites. They also make a lot of audience thanks to it. They are getting peak audience by opening cases

I became a gambling addict because of CSGO when I was teen.
The terminals are stupid. It's just another way for Valve to control the skin market.

Only play HvH and I honestly do not know if you mean the banned from loot box countries 'case scanner' or if you are on about the terminal thing. Unaffected by either of them but they seem like a huge L.
