No, CS2G Database is not affiliated with Valve Corporation, Steam, or any of their partners. We are an independent platform that provides information and tools for the Counter-Strike 2 community.

Counter-Strike, CS:GO, CS2, Steam, and related trademarks are property of Valve Corporation. We respect their intellectual property rights and operate under fair use guidelines.

Our skin prices are sourced from multiple reliable platforms including Steam Community Market, third-party trading sites, and market analytics providers. We update our price data regularly to ensure accuracy.

However, skin prices can fluctuate rapidly based on market conditions, special events, and other factors. We recommend using our prices as a general guide and always checking current market values before making trading decisions.

CS2 skins are essentially the same items as CS:GO skins, but they appear with updated graphics, lighting, and visual effects in Counter-Strike 2. All CS:GO skins automatically transferred to CS2 when the game launched.

The main differences are visual improvements, better lighting effects, and enhanced wear pattern visibility. Some skins may look significantly different in CS2 due to the updated graphics engine.

Safe trading requires several precautions:

• Use only official Steam trading system or reputable third-party platforms
• Always verify float values and inspect items before trading
• Check the other party's Steam profile, trade history, and reputation
• Never click suspicious links or download files from strangers
• Be wary of deals that seem too good to be true
• Use Steam Guard and two-factor authentication

Float value is a decimal number between 0 and 1 that determines the wear condition of a CS2 skin. Lower float values indicate better condition with less wear and scratches.

Float ranges:

• Factory New: 0.00 - 0.07
• Minimal Wear: 0.07 - 0.15
• Field-Tested: 0.15 - 0.38
• Well-Worn: 0.38 - 0.45
• Battle-Scarred: 0.45 - 1.00

You can check float values using our Float Checker tool:

1. Go to our Float Checker page
2. Right-click your item in CS2 inventory and select "Copy Inspect Link"
3. Paste the inspect link into our tool
4. Click "Check Float" to get detailed analysis

Our tool provides precise float values, wear condition, and market value estimates.

Case opening odds are standardized across all CS2 cases:

• Mil-Spec (Blue): 79.92%
• Restricted (Purple): 15.98%
• Classified (Pink): 3.20%
• Covert (Red): 0.64%
• Special Items (Knives/Gloves): 0.26%

These are the base odds, and each item also has a 10% chance to be StatTrak™ variant.

Generally, case opening has negative expected value, meaning you're likely to lose money in the long run. The cost of cases and keys typically exceeds the average value of items received.

However, case opening can be:

• Entertaining if you view it as paying for the experience
• Occasionally profitable if you get lucky with rare items
• Part of a broader trading strategy

Always gamble responsibly and only spend what you can afford to lose.
