Are agent skins pay to win?

[Lv1Snorlax]

If so which so, which ones are the best on most competative maps

NO they are NOT pay to win.

Currently yes. Some agents have different hitboxes, even though the difference is barely noticeable.
But it is fixed in CS2, so if you want to buy an agent just for an advantage I don't recommend to do that.

if you think skins are p2w you are silvers anyway so don't worry about that. just buy which one you like

Was just wondering about the hitboxes and visibility on darker maps like ancient

Yes, different skins suit different maps. you just pick the best one for the job (if you're rich enough that is)

That is why they disable custom agents in pro esports matches

Actually, it may be pay 2 lose. If the enemy sees your special skin, and you show the enemy your habit/play style, then they may cointer you because you decided to stick out from the rest.
