Weapon cases play a very important role in Counter Strike, since they are the easiest method of introducing new weapon skins to the CS economy, besides free CS:GO (CS2) skins from game drops. A weapon case is a type of container that holds randomized skins and weapons, and can vary in rarity and contents. Because of this, Valve regularly introduces new weapon cases to the game, each containing a new set of skins for players to collect.

Although a weapon case will always grant you a skin, its calculated randomly and you never really know which skin you will get. Still, if you don鈥檛 mind a little gambling, a weapon case can be a great method of getting new skins, and potentially even getting back the money you spent on the key used to open it. However, to really be able to profit from weapon cases, you must first learn and understand a little bit more about them.

If you need a weapon case that can help you return your investment when you sell CS:GO (CS2) skins, or simply give you visually impressive skins, keep on reading. Here鈥檚 everything you need to know about the famous Fracture Case.
