Review
The CS:GO Esports 2013 Winter Case holds a special place in the history of CSGO weapon case releases. Because it is themed around the season, it was released as a special themed case, such as Dream And Nightmare Case, CS20 Case, etc. In addition to its uniqueness, its investment value and design sense are also worth discussing.
One Reddit user said, "Simply because someone is still opening them, so supply is dwindling, and there's a low enough amount of them in circulation that despite a low rate of opening, it's still noticeable. Demand might not rise, but supply will keep falling. So unless CS2 dies, or the whole skin economy goes down, they are not going down."
Another said "If the game lives for a long time, then they will go higher." For many people, it represents the booming skin economy of CS:GO.
