Getting crates (cases) in CS:GO is straightforward, and I'll explain the main methods you can use to acquire them.

The most common way to get cases in CS:GO is through random drops while playing on official Valve servers. These drops occur weekly and reset every Wednesday at 00:00 GMT. You can receive up to 4 case drops per week by simply playing the game.

To maximize your chances of getting case drops, I recommend:

• Playing on official Valve servers, not community ones
• Completing full matches rather than leaving early
• Playing during your weekly drop reset period
• Participating in different game modes (Competitive, Casual, Deathmatch)

You can also buy cases directly from the Steam Community Market. This is the fastest way to get specific cases, but it costs real money. Prices vary significantly, from a few cents for common cases to several dollars for rare ones.

Trading is another reliable method to obtain cases. You can trade with other players using:

• Steam trading
• Third-party trading websites (use caution)
• Trading forums and communities

During CS:GO operations, you can earn additional cases by completing missions and earning stars. These operation-specific cases are typically more valuable when first released.

Remember that most cases require keys to open them, which cost around $2.50 each from the in-game store. Some older cases don't drop anymore and can only be obtained through the Steam Market or trading.

It's worth noting that case drops are completely random, and there's no way to influence which specific case you'll receive. The newest cases typically have higher drop rates compared to older ones.

Keep in mind that some regions have restrictions on case openings due to gambling laws, so check your local regulations before investing in cases.
