For those wondering, the dragon lore video is still highly likely to happen because he is only banned from selling on the market and trading skins AWAY. He can still receive skins through trades (gifts) and buy things on the market.
@@gowsa2233 from what I heard from many different sources including TDM HeyZeus, you can. The ban is just supposed to prevent you from profiting from the items/benefits you got from the glitch, so there's no reason to ban them from receiving any items.
@@Metha_59 doubt it since everyone else literally got the same punishment, if everyone got longer bans but content creators got short ones then I’d say it’s obvious favoritism.
he can still open cases and do trade ups, just cannot trade anything out of his account or sell anything on his account, it really doesnt affect him much imo as i assume most of his skins are on alts and things like that
if someone like EA made a pass this expensive, there would be outrage and a huge outburst against their scumminess. but its valve, so we sleep. this needs to be talked about more. this is outrageously expensive and totally unacceptable lmao. they know a vast amount of players are gamblers, and capitalised on that as much as they could with the armory passes. such a huge dissapointment
I don't wanna be devils advocate but like valve games have only microtransactions that you can sell and get your money back, hell you don't need to gamble, you want this 100 dollars skin ? sure Valorant skin cost 20 dollars, but guess what you can sell your 100 for same or slightly lower price, meanwhile Valorant 20 dollars skin you never seeing single cent from it again.
If EA made a pass in a similar way where you can just buy 5 at the same time and keep buying it infinitely the internet would make fun of them for a year. The "It's okay when Valve does it" is honestly kinda insane sometimes.
For those that are just watching the video: Sparkles was hit with a 1 year trade restriction as of today so... RIP any tradeup projects, fan submissions and the like
Last video of 2024?? Well, see you soon brother... keep making videos on some secondary account, with small contracts, small crafts, small trades, just to not let the relevance of the channel die... And in 1 year, the big events again, marking the return of sparkles with DLore #1. 💓💗Don't give up, we are with you. bro.
idk, it looks like 'gold' patterns are actually the most common thing to get, I think the average one people are getting don't even look like the one shown in the purchase display cuz most on the market have almost no blue in them at all.
wait. i thought each skin was generated using like a noise randomizer. Cause each one is supposed to be unique. how does each one being unique work if there are just set patterns.
i feel like its not gonna be worth alot, like the glock emerald. a shame they make gimmick skins every season. That being said the best blue gems do look lovely
Honestly, I kinda like the gimicks. Valve doesnt need to try an place everything for market value or whatever. its a game so i mostly just want them to make fun stuff. Gimicks usually kinda are
Hello Sparkles, I would really like to see a video where you do a tradeup for all/most Fn floatcapped skins in the game, for example most of the Militia collection!
ur telling me i just watched sparkles open skins for 10 minutes for it to all disappear in a matter of minutes from trade ups................... typical sparkles video ahaha
Big fan bro.. after watching your video, I got Pattern 426. how much is it worth. It seemed to be on 2nd rank on the page you were checking. Can you help
I wonder how the market for the new skins will look when they become tradable. since a large portion of the dedicated player base is trade banned (1yr) are the prices gonna go crazy?
11:24 is this actually how the tradeup contract works? I was under the impression it was a 50/50, with the collection having more items divided into that 50.
how do these new collections work? i havent played CS in like 8 years lol. Can you play f2p and get a decent amount of stars just to have some fun, or do is it not worth to play casually.

They're 1K$ already and last time I checked was 2 days ago with 700 M4

Price is bound to go down a lot
the chances to get m4 fade are like 4 times higher than to get awp fade, so it's understandable

4:20 the odds are 1/720~ I believe, so these reds will be a lot more common compared to other operation skins if people open a lot
4:24 since the Consumer Grade skins are removed its actually 1 in 781 for coverts.

It's called an ejection port
🤓@@gotanksshine
I traded up to a FT 704 that is full blue, is it worth something actually or should i keep it as a playskin?
Finally, another upload from you!
the odds for these reds ( from overpass 24, graphic and sports and field collections ) are 1 in 781
Appreciate the stats, considerably more common than previous collections!
@@Sparkles you okay brother?
now if you apply a sticker the skin don t lock 7days for trade or market, but if u attach a charm it does
and the only reason that is, is because the charm is on trade/market cooldown!
Bro thought he was slick with 400 stars in his armory😭😭😭😭😭😭
isn't 200 stars the max stars possible with 5 passes?
@@Funky.Sabbath you can buy as many passes as you want. only 5 can be active at a time tho

How can I get the money back i felt like scammed. I bought the ticket for the deagle but it's price now 3-5 dolars

That last one was devastating to watch, I wish I could have those skins dude
For those that are just watching the video:
Sparkles was hit with a 1 year trade restriction as of today so... RIP any tradeup projects, fan submissions and the like
he can still do all those things he can recieve and buy items still just not sell or trade away
Alt accounts. Unless that would be ban evasion.
There's so many of these blue gems, they're very common to come across

True story.. I was watching my buddy open up some of the collections and he hit the m4 fade. was a beautiful moment.

you should check out the video where he shows he's got thousands in leftover skins on his old accounts lol
its nice to see sparkles happy looking at new skins while opening the new pass :)
Still trade banned?
1 year
idk, it looks like 'gold' patterns are actually the most common thing to get, I think the average one people are getting don't even look like the one shown in the purchase display cuz most on the market have almost no blue in them at all.
wait. i thought each skin was generated using like a noise randomizer. Cause each one is supposed to be unique. how does each one being unique work if there are just set patterns.
For every pattern skin there is 1000 noise generated variables
But only these 1000 exist
So it is basicly set
it randomizes between 1000 patterns on a template image
Now you get to enjoy those skins for a whole year ❤👌🏻
i feel like its not gonna be worth alot, like the glock emerald. a shame they make gimmick skins every season. That being said the best blue gems do look lovely
Ofc its not worth a lot. So many people have the chances of getting it. Store is just getting flooded with them

I also got a "tier 2 blue gem" in MW with pattern 856. Very nice skin to play with. I love it!
I hope you can sell it soon.
He can still receive trades so openings are still going to happen :)
Thanks for tour sacrifice my man. Keep the content coming.
I did not realized i had the number 1 pattern (461) desert eagle, lets see how much this blue gem will cost
ur telling me i just watched sparkles open skins for 10 minutes for it to all disappear in a matter of minutes from trade ups................... typical sparkles video ahaha
How much u think heat treated pattern 259 ( blue gem ) fill test will be 🤔

For an industrial the ak is actually really good imo
i love to watch this guy please dont stop
It’s pretty cool that’s there’s many blue gem patterns
Been a fan for years until now..please don’t be affected by negative comments. Will still support you❤
Guys if you would have the galil rainbow spoon ft would you keep it or sell it?
When do you guys think patterns #490 & #148 will be tradeable and what will they be worth?
No one make a video fast as you ❤️
Take love bro
enjoy ur vacation sparkles😂😂
People seem to be completely unaware that the Galil in the Sport Col is also a heat treated weapon...
Got a hot howl 2 days ago hope it keep the price range it is at right now

gr8 video its fun watching some one open a lot of star credits for people like me who cant afford it i like watching this great job
9:55 - JORT STORMS COMING
I’m guessing sparkles reaction to logging on the other day was similar to trading up to a FN blood in the water… “F***!!!!”
Did they add a new tier of skins? What tier is that yellowish green tier of guns? I've never seen that before.
Liking this vid for the "Sparkles" joke. You're a legend
11:24 is this actually how the tradeup contract works? I was under the impression it was a 50/50, with the collection having more items divided into that 50.
Banger vid, should try to open some capsules
I wouldn't mind pulling any of the heat treated skins, they are all sick 😭
Until you get a battle-scared silver deagle that looks worse than a £2 skin like 99% of the people opening them.
these not rare so just wait and they will be cheap
you think itll reg float will go up iin future?
I think 288 is a blue gem apttern too but its more like a tier 3
🎶 im locked up , they won't let me out 🎶
If we hit 15k likes, are you still gonna hunt the trade up?
I hit the #3 pattern template #69 in field tested yesterday, not the best but its a blue gem baby!!
its so oddd watching people open multiple of these cause i got lucky and got a tier 1 bg first try, i am going to try for more in a few weeks
Nahh man, no more armory cases, we’re waiting for the DRAGON LORE trade up. Can’t wait to see it🤙🏻
Nice video man keep going❤
What nice stars, hope you played the game and earned them honestly :)
My man pls let the Lamborghini in your garage for the next 365 days we need the no. 1 D-lore
Next video idea: Gallery case opening
that new awp reminds me of the assimov for some reason
Big kev= new ssg blood in the water
What do you think that rank 2 goes for? I have a rank 2 as well. Maybe can sell for 2-300?
Will you still do viewer tradeup contracts on an alt account? Always a fun watch those vids
A friend of mine Opend 1 of these and got the AK instant and a week before a knive
I got pattern 674 well-worn (bluegem pattern) on my deagle first and only try :D
R.I.P. till next year
My third Deagle is blue gem 273, which is T1 according to the guide. What would be its estimated value if it's also well-worn?
Pulled a MW (0.08) pattern #1 Default skin, as displayed in the Armory Shop. Working towards a second
That CZ Auto Slalom you put in trade up is factory new and its pretty damn expensive now...
You should try unbox rare charms and try to get rare patterns... Loved the video as always, much love ❤
Yesterday I pull that Glock factory new, with pattern 0,016😍
In the market minimal it’s 0,04😁
i actually have a blue gem i think idk if its even rare or not or how much is worth! its a tier 1 blue gem??
Oh, i managed to pull a BlueGem pattern 96 on my first pull, guess im an lucky arse then! Good luck Sparkles!
Pulled a 717 purple gem in MW almost FN and am very happy with the pull
What will happen with tve skinclub giveaways sparkles?
Do you think valve is going to delete the redeemed skins?
they need too come out with more new operator skins
how do these new collections work? i havent played CS in like 8 years lol. Can you play f2p and get a decent amount of stars just to have some fun, or do is it not worth to play casually.
Got a purple pattern 800 sadly it's well worn any idea on prices
Its only fitting Sparkles got a cat charm 😺
