CS2 Case Database

The CS2 case database and drop pools

A directory of cs2 cases, from modern releases to community favourites. Each case card links into how cs2 case opening works, with illustrative unlock value and rarity context so you can compare containers at a glance.

Modern CS2 cases

These are the containers most players encounter today. Each cs2 case holds a themed drop pool spanning several rarity tiers, up to the rare special items. Prices below are illustrative combined key-and-case estimates.

Community and specialist cases

Some cases are built around community themes or specific item types such as gloves. They behave the same way mechanically but often feel distinct because of their art direction and drop pools.

What a case actually contains

Every cs2 case is defined by its loot pool. A pool lists the skins available at each rarity tier plus a small chance at a special item - the knife skins and glove skins that sit at the top of the stash.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How many CS2 cases are there?
Valve has released dozens of cases over the years. Our directory highlights a representative set of modern and community cases rather than an exhaustive list.
Do older cases cost more?
Often, yes. Discontinued cases can rise in value because they are no longer part of the active drop rotation, which also lifts the price of their contents.
What is a drop pool?
A drop pool is the fixed list of skins a case can produce, organised by rarity tier plus a small chance at a special knife or glove item.
Are case odds official here?
The odds shown are illustrative and simplified to explain how weighting works. Always treat them as educational, not exact.

Reading the case directory like a chart

Treat the case database as a star chart rather than a shopping catalogue. Each cs2 case is a coordinate that tells you which skins are reachable, at what rarity, and with what illustrative odds. Modern containers such as Kilowatt and Gallery refresh the active pool, while retired cases quietly become collector territory as their supply dwindles. By comparing containers side by side you start to see the logic of the whole system: the more desirable the special items and covert finishes in a pool, the more attention that case attracts. Pair this directory with our case opening guide and you will understand not just what a case holds, but why it behaves the way it does.
