Of course, it lived up to expectations after its release and won wide acclaim from CSGO players, among which Five-SeveN | Hyper Beast was loved by many players. As time goes by, its popularity in CSGO has not diminished.
Review
Released as part of Operation Hydra, the Hydra Case CSGO also contains rare gloves, including Hand Wraps | Slaughter, Bloodhound Gloves | Guerrilla, etc. Despite this, some Reddit users pointed out that the case does not have particularly rare weapon skins.
“It’s rare and will likely rise, but it doesn’t have that one ultra-valuable skin like other cases.” but some users affirmed its investment value, “Yes, it is rare and probably goes up. But unlike other really expensive cases such as the Bravo and Weapon case 1, it doesn't have this 1 extremely demanded skin. The weapon case 1 has the AK case hardened which is highly sought after (and still unboxed / traded up for) in the hopes of getting a blue gem. The Bravo collection mainly is popular to get a fire serpant.”
