Valve Discontinues the Shattered Web Case

When a weapon case is discontinued, the price does not guarantee that it will increase over time. The Operation Vanguard case was discontinued several years ago but has failed to break 50 cents in price. Vanguard was an unpopular case and had no flashy skins inside, making sense that it was a bad investment.

Many think the Shattered Web has what it takes to become a costly case in the future. CS2 YouTuber TDM_Heyzues said,

I would be very surprised if it doesn’t reach the levels of the Operation Hydra case

… later going on to say prices could reach as high as $40. This estimate is unlikely ever to occur and is purely a guess on the best-case scenario.

What’s unique about Shattered Web?

The Shattered Web case has a unique set of knives currently unavailable in any other case. Valve hasn’t stated if the knife set will be included in future cases, but many skin investors speculate these knives will remain exclusive to the Shattered Web case. If this is true, these already expensive knives will see prices skyrocket. Giving more incentive to open the case will make the Shattered Web case price slowly decline in supply.

Shattered Web had the most expensive operation pass to date because of the significant drops it gave players. Few could purchase the pass, and the case wasn’t a standard drop. This is a perfect storm for a case that could run out of supply quicker than ever before.

Time to invest?

Investing in the Shattered Web case will never guarantee you any profit. It’s safe to guess that the price will increase over a long period of time, as seen in most CS2 cases. We estimate prices will eventually pick up as soon as the economy goes up again, and it may take many months for the case price to surpass the $1.50 mark.

Many well-respected skin investors vouch for the Shattered Web Case as a wise investment. However, the price has been inflated by investors stocking up, affecting the number of cases being opened.

Price of Shattered Web Case at time of writing article: $1.09
