CS 2 Skins

Types of CS2 Skins

Skins are graded based on rarity and condition. Rarity refers to a skin’s value and drop rate in-game. It’s represented by colors, with white being the most common (i.e., high drop rate) and orange being the rarest.

If you want cheap CS2 skins, common cosmetics are your best bet as they cost far less than those with a higher rarity.

• Consumer Grade (white): Most common.
• Industrial Grade (light blue): Common.
• Mil-Spec (blue): Rare.
• Restricted (purple): Rare but with more detail than Mil-Spec skins.
• Classified (pink): Highly rare.
• Covert (red): Rarest type of regular drop skins.
• Exceedingly Rare (gold): Includes skins for knives and gloves.
• Contraband (orange): Extremely rare skins. This rarity is currently only assigned to one skin, the M4A4 Howl, which has been retired.

Skin condition is the quality of a skin. It doesn’t affect your gameplay, but it does change the visuals of your weapons. Battle Scarred cosmetics are the lowest quality and cause weapons to look old, scratched, and faded.

Factory New skins, on the other hand, look shiny, bright, and brand-new. They’re the highest quality skin type and usually the most expensive on a CS2 skins market.

• Factory New: Highest quality.
• Minimal Wear:  Second-highest quality.
• Field Tested: Average quality.
• Well Worn: Low quality.
• Battle Scared: Lowest quality.

There’s a lot of variety in Counter-Strike 2 skins, and even common and low-quality cosmetics have some unique designs. If there’s something specific you’re after, you can find everything you need at PlayHub, a safe place to buy CS2 skins.

Why You Should Buy Counter-Strike 2 Skins

CS2 has a lot of skins, but obtaining them isn’t as easy as most other online FPS games. That’s because there are no free cosmetics in CS2. You need to spend real money to get CS2 skins, so the main way to acquire them is via a CS2 skins marketplace.

Upgrading your account will also grant you access to weekly care packages that contain cases, skins, and graffiti. However, these are limited to once a week.

Most players end up buying skins as it’s the most consistent way of getting them. There are a few benefits to purchasing CS2 skins for sale, including:

1. Obtain a specific skin. There's no guarantee that you'll get the skin you want from cases. You could open hundreds or even thousands of cases before acquiring it. However, if you buy CS2 skins safe via an online market, you can choose the exact skin you want to save time (and potentially money).
2. Show off to other players. Counter-Strike 2 skins not only make you look unique, but they’re also a way to boast to other players that you own a rare or sought-after cosmetic.
3. Good investment. CS2 skins often increase in value over time, making them a solid investment. Many players buy cheap CS2 skins to sell in the future.
