My biggest mistake was quitting the game for a year. Finally done.
So i came back to CS after s couple of years and i am wondering how to get skins and stuff nowadays. iirc back in the days you had a chance of getting a drop after a game, is this still a thing? So today: if i see this correctly, you can trade stuff up/ combine-upgrade stuff, get a weekly drop, where you can decide what to get, then the arsenal pass(es) with the shop tied to it and buy cases/ skins/ terminals. Speaking of terminals: what the heck are those? Just a „non lootbox“-lootbox? And i saw some dude talking about xray case scans? So much has changed. Sorry i could ask google about it, but there is like 1 ok-information-website and 99 „skin shops“ and everything seems scammy af and i just want to know how things work nowadays. And if you are a „knife expert“: what are doppler? What are phases? Why are some knife (-models) more valuable than others? Knifes are confusing af too but are a complete different topic on it‘s own. Thanks in advance! Have a good day!
