CS2 to Introduce More Case Attempts and a Premier Season 3 Leaderboard

New lines within the Counter-Strike 2 game files suggest the possibility of an update to the case system. Insider sources have confirmed that devs are experimenting with a mechanic that would double attempts to obtain a skin from a new case from 5 to 10.

Nowadays, CS2 has a limit: opening the same case five times, players are no longer given chances to get rare items. However, new lines in the game code indicate that this limit can be doubled. These modifications, if implemented, would create more chances for players to get rare skins and make new cases more appealing, typically in the form of massive updates.

In addition to the changes of the case system, there are some other new features: a season three leaderboard for the "Premier" mode. The players will now be able to keep an eye not only on their performance but also compete for the top positions in the ranks. Season leaders will receive special rewards or achievements — though this data has not been announced yet.

All 17 Skins of the CS2 Genesis Collection

Both of these should be included in one of the forthcoming CS2 patches, but up to now there has not been a word from Valve about doing so. If they do make these changes, both the competitive aspect of the game and the in-game economy of skins might be significantly helped.
