Opening cases is a great way of getting children
into gambling and knife collections. To avoid
throwing away lots of real money, I'm using
this simulation to see how long it takes to
get a pretend knife. You can find a link to
this simulation in the description of this
video.
How about that. Beginner's luck.
Just 12 dollars in I got a second classified
weapon. I can assure you that this doesn't
normally happen with such frequency. I'd also
advise people to look up basic probability
before getting carried away with case openings.
A word of warning- this carries on for another
20 seconds or so. If it's any reassurance,
have a look at the amount of money spent going
up on the side of the screen. I think it's
great that Valve have developed a way of making
money without giving big spenders an advantage
in-game- if anything, these brightly lit,
special skins make them easier to be spotted
by enemies. I just wonder how much money people
who unlock several knives from these case
openings must have spent altogether and how
much they hate themselves for it.
Oh ja! A hardened case! Sadly, I could have
got these 3 classified weapons for just over
20 dollars. Heck, I could have bought a couple
of knives as well and STILL be under what
I've already spent on these cases. Ah well,
surely my luck will change soon and I'll be
rolling in sharp knives!
I guess the people who have several knives
must just be really lucky, surely they haven't
spend thousands of dollars on cases! Nobody
would do that... surely?
OH YES! That's worth another 15 dollars and
I only had to spend 100 dollars to get it!
Oh, I don't believe it. This is proof that
it's all fixed. Valve hates me. HATES ME.
After this I'm not buying a case again -
- See, just when I was about to give up my
luck has changed! Time for one more go.
Okay, two.
Oh screw it, let's keep spending more money,
I've invested too much to give in now! The
worst is over.
Wow, with 3 lucky drops so close together
I've almost been breaking even... if you forget
about that huge loss before. That's in the
past. It doesn't matter anymore.
WOW, I was so close to getting a Covert drop
there! Let's keep going until I get one of
those. Poor Valve, the way I'm going they'll
be bankrupt, having to give me all of these...uh...
virtual skins.
You know what, this is beginning to get boring.
Let's speed this up until I get a PROPER drop
that's worth my time!
As long as I don't have to eat for the next
couple of weeks I'll be okay... YAY! All of
that was TOTALLY worth it. Just you wait till
I tell my friends about what I've done, they'll
be so proud and jelly! Let's keep going until
I get a second covert drop. A winning streak
is just around the next corner- I can feel
it in my bones and I've got my pants of +5
luck on.
Even the appeal of getting these is wearing
off now. Let's speed this up until I get a
knife! Hold tight, people!
GASP! I'm the best person in the world! It
only took just under 1,500 dollars to get
a knife! I can now retire from this case quest
and live happily ever after. Thank you for
watching this, I hope it's been worth your
while. Do you think that I was lucky? Unlucky?
Try the simulator for yourself and see how
you fare. And remember, you could be just
three kliks away from owning your very own
karambit. In fact, what if...
...nah. Ah well. Have fun!
