CS2 Operation Cases
Operation cases are weapon cases released as part of CS:GO Operations. CS2DB tracks 10 Operation cases, all of which are now retired.
Each Operation introduced limited-time content and rewards, with all Operations (except Payback) also releasing their own weapon case. Browse the Operations and their associated cases below.
Operation Riptide
The Operation Riptide Case was available to players who had activated an Operation Premium Pass. It could be purchased from the Operation Riptide store within the CS:GO game client for 2 stars.
Operation Broken Fang
The Operation Broken Fang Case was available to players who had activated an Operation Premium Pass. It could be purchased from the Operation Broken Fang store within the CS:GO game client for 2 stars.
Operation Shattered Web
The Shattered Web Case was available exclusively to players through the battlepass system introduced in Operation Shattered Web. This was the second operation weapon case to not include the word "Operation", though it did include the name of the operation itself, unlike the Falchion Case from the Bloodhound operation. This was also the first Operation case to be immediately retired at the end of the operation instead of moving to the rare drop pool.
Operation Hydra
The Operation Hydra Case was the first operation case to be severely restricted in volume with each player only being eligible to obtain up to a maximum of 9 cases. As a result this heavily limited the total number of Hydra cases that were awarded to operation pass holders, which in turn has driven up the price of the case higher than any other operation case (with the exception of the Bravo case). At the conclusion of Operation Hydra the case was immediately moved to the rare drop pool.
Operation Wildfire
The Operation Wildfire Case was available exclusively to players throughout the duration of Operation Wildfire. At the conclusion of the operation the Wildfire Case was made available to all players. This would be the final operation weapon case to be made available after the end of an operation.
Operation Bloodhound
The Falchion Case was available exclusively to players throughout the duration of Operation Bloodhound. It was also the first operation weapon case to not feature the name of the operation itself, with the case being named "Falchion" after the new Falchion knife it introduced as opposed to "Bloodhound".
Operation Vanguard
The Operation Vanguard Weapon Case was available exclusively to players throughout the duration of Operation Vanguard.
Operation Breakout
The Operation Breakout Weapon Case was available exclusively to players throughout the duration of Operation Breakout.
Operation Phoenix
The Operation Phoenix Weapon Case was available exclusively to players throughout the duration of Operation Phoenix.
Operation Bravo
The Operation Bravo Case was available to all players with or without the operation pass for the duration of Operation Bravo (19 September 2013 - 5 February 2014), but players who had activated the operation pass had a significantly higher chance of receiving a Bravo case drop.
Historical CS:GO Case Drop Pools
Before the current Weekly Care Package system, CS:GO weapon cases moved through several different drop pools over time. These included Prime, Non-Prime and Rare case drops.
These categories are historical and should not be confused with the current CS2 case drop system.
Prime Case Drops
The previous general rule of thumb was that when a new case was released it was initially an exclusive drop in the Prime Drop Pool. Meanwhile, the oldest case in the prime drop pool was moved to the non-prime drop pool. Consequently, the oldest case in the non-prime pool was then moved to the rare drop pool (often incorrectly referred to as 'discontinued').
Non-Prime Case Drops
Non-Prime weapon case drops were only available to players who did not have Prime Status on their CS:GO account. However, the non-prime drop pool was discontinued with the CS:GO update 'Adjustments to Non-Prime' on 3rd June 2021.
Non-Prime players no longer receive weapon cases, skins or graffiti drops. Prime status can no longer be obtained for free by levelling up to Profile Level 21.
The CS20, Horizon, Spectrum 2, Gamma 2, Chroma 3 and Revolver cases were then moved to the 'Rare' drop pool before being retired on 17th December 2025.
Rare Case Drops
Rare weapon cases (often incorrectly referred to as 'discontinued') were available to prime players. These cases were typically either released several years ago or were previously exclusive to operation pass holders.
As the name would suggest, these cases would drop in very rare instances with some players reportedly only receiving a 'rare' case drop once a year. Player collected data suggests that the percentage probability of receiving a rare case drop is 1%.
How to Open CS2 Cases
Opening a CS2 Weapon Case requires the case-specific key to be purchased from within the CS2 game client. The exceptions to this rule is souvenir packages, gift packages and the X-Ray P250 Package.
These keys were previously sold regularly on the Steam Community Market but after changes imposed by Valve in an update on 28 October 2019 keys have since become a collectible item. This is due to the fact that any keys purchased within the CS:GO game client after 28 October 2019 are non-tradeable and non-marketable, and therefore locked into the Steam account which purchased them.
CS2 Case Odds and Probabilities
The following odds are based on opening 125.12 CS2 cases. The odds of unboxing a StatTrak skin are 10% of the normal skin odds.
| Rarity | Normal | StatTrak |
|---|---|---|
| Mil-spec | 79.92% | 7.99% |
| Restricted | 15.98% | 1.59% |
| Classified | 3.2% | 0.32% |
| Covert | 0.64% | 0.064% |
| Rare Special Item | 0.26% | 0.026% |
Where a weapon case's Rare Special Item pool contains knives, the rare special item probability represents the chance of receiving one of those knives. Cases with gloves instead use the same rarity tier for their glove pool.
StatTrak
StatTrak skins are exclusive to weapon cases and are near identical to their normal counterpart but include a digital six digit counter attached to the weapon.
The counter increments by one for each kill a player makes with the StatTrak weapon skin. Kills made against bots are not counted. If another player picks up someone elses StatTrak weapon the counter will begin flashing between "ERROR" and "UNKNOWN USER". Any kills made by this player will not be counted.
The counter is reset when the skin is traded or sold on the Steam community market. The value of the StatTrak counter can be transferred to another StatTrak skin using the StatTrak™ Swap Tool which can be purchased ingame and via the Steam community market.
