FACEIT Reveals the Most Popular Eco-Round Weapon Among Level 10 Players

FACEIT has revealed which weapons Level 10 players prefer to buy during eco rounds in Counter-Strike 2. The platform analyzed more than six million eco rounds played during Season 9 to determine the most popular choices.

According to statistics published by FACEIT, the Desert Eagle was the most frequently purchased weapon among Level 10 players during eco rounds.

The data showed that players picked the Desert Eagle more than twice as often as the Five-SeveN, making the Deagle the clear favorite in terms of popularity.

However, choosing the more popular weapon did not necessarily result in a better chance of securing a kill. FACEIT’s analysis found that players using the Five-SeveN were 5% more likely to get a kill compared with those using the Desert Eagle.

The statistics highlight a notable difference between player preference and effectiveness. While Level 10 players strongly favor the Desert Eagle during eco rounds, the Five-SeveN appears to provide a slightly better chance of converting the investment into a kill.
