CS2 Premier upgrade worth it?

[Nox Eterna]

Only got into CS relatively recently, and I am wondering if this pricey upgrade to base game is worth it, particularly in terms of loot drops - will I actually start getting marketable items that will potentially be able to recoup at least a fraction of the upgrade's price? Or the stuff you guys get is untradeable/too cheap to make a difference?

I don't think so.. I just opened a couple of cases i got from loot drops a couple of minutes ago....

I buy the keys for $2 and some change. I got skins worth 11 cents. I have been doing it since i started playing and i just lose more money.

oh, you need to buy keys to open cases? you can't just get them by playing?

I've never once got an item more than $5

It's gambling. You're going to waste your money. If you want to invest in skins, buy them off the market low and resell them high. This is also gambling but way better odds.

Yes is worth it since u get case and a weapon every week when u level up :)

U can get your prime money back when u sell some cases so after a while it’s gonna be free ;)

And don’t forget u can play premiere and MM

You have to buy keys to open cases, but you can sell the cases without opening them.
Also Prime status makes you play only with people who also bought Prime status, so it reduces amount of cheaters from free version of the game.

oh okay, if it can eventually pay back for itself, even partially, then I guess it is worth it - especially if it reduces the amount of cheaters I get in my games. Thanks for your opinions, pplz.

Case prices have fallen off since the game is kinda in a rut right now because Valve is solely focusing on updating core gameplay in preparation for the upcoming Major after upgrading their game to a new engine.
It's probably wise to just sit on your drops for a while and wait for content updates that will bring back the people's interest and an increase in case prices with it

you should think about not investing any money in a cheat infested game, this game has every game at least 1 cheater
