This Friday, Counter-Strike fans will witness an unprecedented event: four popular content creators will open some of the rarest cases and capsules in the game’s history, totaling $240,000 in value. And this is no exaggeration — it will be the most expensive case opening ever in CS:GO and CS2 history.

Who’s Involved?

The project features well-known figures from the Counter-Strike community:

  • ohnePixel – analyst and YouTuber famous for his passion for rare skins
  • ArrowCS – streamer focused on cases and collectible items
  • TimTheTatman – media personality with a million-strong audience and a CS fan
  • Nadeshot – Call of Duty legend and owner of 100 Thieves, long-time CS2 enthusiast

Each of them received $60,000 worth of items gifted by the most mysterious and renowned CS collector — Megalodon888.

What Will Be Opened?

These are not just any market cases — these are historical and museum-tier items, many of which are valued from hundreds to tens of thousands of dollars each. The inventory provided to each streamer includes:

  • 10 × Cobblestone Souvenir Packages (with KennyS stickers)
  • 50 × eSports 2013 Cases
  • 50 × eSports 2014 Summer Cases
  • 50 × eSports 2013 Winter Cases
  • 50 × Operation Bravo Cases
  • 40 × CS:GO Weapon Cases (the very first case in CS)
  • 5 × DreamHack 2014 Legends Capsules
  • 1 × Katowice 2014 Legends Capsule

In total, each streamer will open over 250 cases and capsules. Some of the potential drops include:

  • Souvenir AWP | Dragon Lore
  • Titan (Holo) | Katowice 2014 Stickers
  • Rare skins from the first generation of cases
  • Historic “Factory New” items from early CS tournaments

Who Is Megalodon888?

This event wouldn’t be possible without the legendary trader Megalodon888. His inventory has long been a topic of discussion in the community, with estimated value ranging from $1.5 to $3 million.

One trade alone, as shown in ohnePixel’s post, contained items worth over €82,000 — and that’s just part of what was sent. This specific trade was also confirmed by ohnePixel on X (Twitter):

Why It Matters for the Scene

This stream is more than just entertainment — it sets a new standard of value in the CS2 ecosystem. Here’s why:

Cultural Value of Legacy Items: Souvenir packages and tournament capsules no longer drop — every opening decreases their global supply.

Financial Stakes: Some drops can be worth anywhere from $10,000 to $100,000 — a high-risk, high-reward lottery unfolding live.

Media Impact: The involvement of massive streamers like TimTheTatman and Nadeshot brings mainstream attention to the CS2 skin economy.

What to Expect?

This opening could feature the live pull of an AWP | Dragon Lore worth $50,000 or a Titan Holo sticker valued at over $70,000, all with real-time reactions full of hype, screams, excitement, or heartbreak.

This record-breaking case battle is set to become the highlight of the summer for every Counter-Strike fan.
