My Take On The Best Cases

As for my personal experience with the CS2 cases from the investment point of view, I would highly recommend starting with the Prisma case. The reason for mentioning the Prisma case is this case has been gaining more value since last year and is probably one of the rare cheap cases out there in CS2.

Apart from that, I also own cases like the Chroma 3 and the Danger Zone case, as these cases can prove to be beneficial investments as well as great picks for return on investment
