open it before valve releases a new map with a rare awp drop that devalues the dragon lore
I'm so conflicted

check the market for the 2014 cobble packages.
See how much they went up by after the event last year, couple that with the vanguard operation ending meaning no more Dragon Lore drops from that mission. (unless they put something better in the new operation)
either way they will go up somewhat, to what extent no one knows.
or open it and potentially get a dragon lore minimum of like 300k up to almost 1000k
or do what i did, i opened 1 (had 3) of them and i got like a £1 skin
People say they will go up but look a comparable drop from last year, when I last looked it wasn't as dramatic as suggested.
You'd have to be insane to open one, sell it and enjoy the steam sales for nothing
exactly.
i did open one, as id just unboxed a knife so thought i may have had a lucky night. no such luck though.
edit, i just checked the skin i got from the cobble package and it was actually 28p worth
Suprised you didnt unbox 14 Dragon Lores in 1 box knowing you.... lol
Cant Dragon Lores drop by just playing Cobble outside of a mission.?? I got my Cz75 Chalice from a random drop by just playing a non mission cobble game ages ago.

My best skin was chainmail p2000 from cobble. I bet it and lost but it wasnt FN so I didnt like it [value rose 10x]
Ive heard every skin and every case can drop, it just gets increasingly unlikely as they get older.
So yea you can get a summer sports 2013 case or whatever but its like 1 in a million games probably
So right now Chroma drops, at some point it wont so much. Thats why Im keeping vanguard for like a year, totally swamped now. Presuming people want the skins in the case also that csgo keeps growing
Not sure whats the future Fade glock or CH, they used to be 'common' apparently
Free skin btw, change your name to this and go there & sign in - [itemdepot.co]
Looks like it'll let you swap skins about fairly easily
Some dude collected pro noob tips :
tl;dr scroll watch the vids

map played dont matter afaik. Back in the day you could game the system for drops on TF2 I read and because the formula was discovered its all very much more random now and not related to anything in game.
I saw someone get nitro on mirage and a knight m4 while playing an old breakout dm match, the m4 was from owning a coin and I dont think vanguard 'coin' gives that benefit now.
I cant remember ever seeing a cobble drop, mine were from breakout. I think it does, the odds are similar to winning national lottery for lore.
If you want one like that, subscribe to a twitch channel running a lotto

so I got a desert blaze from a mission and thats the only way to get it now (also upgrade). When vanguard ends it would need esl to play Dust at lan for it to drop
Not sure if Cobble is this way now

Just got the top train skin, pretty lucky for drops as thats my third top skin from a collection but cobble is covert so a wider range and these were just purples

is this on if your using it solely as modem? I wouldn't mind checking that out...
BTW, not many problems on mine, but using an asus router in conjunction.
Anyone have any suggestions for why my CS ping spikes to 250+ every time my wife uses Youtube on her Android tablet? Other services/devices don't cause issues
I was always under the impression that its standard for your ping to rise if somebody else is downloading/streaming on your internet....
maybe in 2005
Depends on internet Im on ADSL ~17mb and if I take a photo on my phone it auto backs it up and my ping goes crazy for about a minute. Its usually upload that messes up ping the most but maybe if its a HD youtube clip and you have lesser internets? Maybe its the way youtube downloads the entire video asap where as other services may be a bit nicer to your connection.
