CS.MONEY has launched the Xmas Robbery. Hurry up, grab your guns, and join our field agents. Not sure what to get? No problem: we’ve prepared a selection of skins to help you navigate the event. Let’s roll!
Stage 1: A skin for 5 bucks
When choosing a skin for the first stage, we settled on two options. This idea seemed so good that the skin for each stage has its own alternative. If you’ve decided to join the Xmas Robbery without spending too much, we suggest considering the AWP Atheris Field-Tested. Despite its low price, it’s an amazing look for the sniper rifle that tolerates the float increase.
For those who don’t like staring into the scope of a sniper rifle, there’s a decent analog in this price range. For about the same money, you can get an AK-47 Elite Build Field-Tested. A true classic among AK skins only second to the AK-47 Redline. The finish nicely combines shades of gray with gold, making it look far more expensive than it really is.
Stage 2: Pony up 10 bucks
Signing up for an Xmas Robbery means serious preparations. For example, you could buy a weapon finish priced at ten bucks. Like the Desert Eagle Mecha Industries Field-Tested. This fantastic design for the pocket cannon will cost you around ten dollars. If you’re a master of headshots, a Deagle skin is a must-have for your inventory.
Alternatively, you can buy an AWP Fever Dream Field-Tested. Half of the skins for the AWP emanate pathos. While gold, flames, and subtle patterns are all definitely cool things, a real punk needs a skin that’s crazy and leaves no room for compromise. Executed in blue and pink, the AWP Fever Dream is what the doctor ordered for this role.
Stage 3: Halfway through
Stage three is the metaphorical equator in our preparations for the Christmas raid. Let’s proceed to pick an assault rifle. The M4A4 Desolate Space Field-Tested will make a great addition to any collection. Not only does the skin stand out with a budget-friendly price of about twenty dollars, but it also boasts a stunning drawing. Depicted on the gun’s side is a spooky skeleton in a spacesuit. By the way, did you know that they changed the skin in the Chinese version of the game? Namely, the visor is lowered! Here, check out what changes the game underwent in China due to the country’s laws.
Instead of an M4, you can opt for the Desert Eagle Kumicho Dragon Field-Tested. The skin nicely combines purple and silver hues. Despite its age — this Deagle will soon turn six years old — the skin enjoys a massive fan base. Maybe you should join it?
Stage 4: A fifty-dollar gun
In the category of fifty-dollar finishes, there’s an unqualified leader: the AK-47 Redline Field-Tested. This skin can rightly be called a community favorite. The reasons why it’s so popular are clear. The AK-47 Redline is a black design with red accents for a moderate price — and for the most popular weapon in the game. Bottom line: it’s a must-have purchase — if you don’t have one yet, now is the time to purchase one.
If you’re already a proud owner of an AK-47 Redline, check out the M4A1-S Hyper Beast Field-Tested. Thanks to the size of the rifle, the drawing of the beast is incredibly juicy and detailed. There’s more: as the float grows, the pattern gradually fades, and Field-Tested copies of the M4A1-S Hyper Beast are not only eye-catching, but also budget-friendly.
The final stage: Knife jam
If you’ve decided to stock up big-time, you can’t do without a knife. But here’s the problem: there are very few blades in CS:GO, and each skin and picture has its own fan base. So we’ll just offer you two not-particularly-expensive and popular knives, and you can choose the one that’s right for you at CS.MONEY. We even have special filters.
One knife can cover all the stages. For example, the Huntsman Knife Tiger Tooth Factory New. The huge “toothy” blade designed to resemble tiger stripes looks a bit like it’s made of gold in certain lighting conditions. A little bonus: you won’t have to decide between dozens of patterns and go through the blades by float: the Huntsman Knife Tiger Tooth has only two wear conditions — and no rare patterns.
Alternatively, you can grab a Shadow Daggers Marble Fade Factory New. This pair of red blades is the definition of eye candy. Flaunting these in front of your teammates is sure to get you a lot of rave reviews. On top of that, you’ll be 100% ready for our Xmas Robbery with these knives.
