Bro you think I be sweating out what goes on in pro scene lmao...PURE guesswork on my side too! I have not loaded cs2 up in around 18 months without -insecure in start up. However I do wish that there was excitement for things like this as there was at one time...Normal cs2 is very hard to have fun and keep mentals in good order...Vibe gaming only these days for me!

I do play CS2 every couple days though, usually 15 hours a week or so. Vibe gaming ROFL, first time hearing that.

Ahhhh I have done that. I had been up late and last thing remember sitting down to do my picks and I crashed out..woke up and went to do them and I missed the window. I just like it to keep my account with times and if ever I feel I want to play MM again then the account looks in good order.

Anyway i think it's a healthy way to "bet", obviously it's not free and i do think it's a bit expensive for what it is.

Even tho it's fully part of the game culture, i think like you said it's not like it used to be, nobody is flexxing anymore these accomplishments in the old days.

Yeah nothing about flexing on my part..Price of a 6 pack of beer or there abouts and little bit of a gamble theme and gets me to watch the odd match. This one is weird as the new souvenir system is whack...much better getting the pack and opening it to get a shit skin. Now can make any weapon a souvenir :(

Yah saw the market got nuked because of that... i used to love souvenirs skins when it was around a player moment, it's sad Valve never pushed these things better.

Could have also found a way to track every skin so the ones played by pros could become collectors considering when they played with them
