What happened with unopened elite cases before the update?

#1

Hey there.

Title says it all.
I still have these two elite cases we got from events.
Now that they are split into two groups, what’s up with the old ones?
Do they remain the same?

I figure they still work but can’t be bought. As for what mercs are in it… most likely all mercs before Phoenix. When you click on them it should give you a description of the mercs it drops cards for.

I can understand people who don’t bother opening regular cases anymore, but why wouldn’t you open the elite cases as soon as you get them? :o

@kibloy Could be! Now I wonder what happens if I get one of the new elite cases.

@Rjsto Stacking them up in hope of getting a BR-16/Stark-AR cobalt Kira.

Ty for the answers. :slight_smile:

Hoarding them won’t increase your chances, it would actually decrease them as more mercs get added.

True, however I’d like to have more cases to open if I should get a silver from my first one. :stuck_out_tongue:

does hording regular cases increase your chances? Im thinking no as it rolls the dice on each open yeah?

Every roll is independent no matter the time in between them. Some people like to hoard them so they’ll likely get a good result from opening multiple cases instead of opening a case and getting lead, then waiting a few games and getting lead, and so on.

I save all my cases in-between merc releases and then open them when the new merc is released. This allows me a chance at w/e I can get out of those cases and gives me trade-up fodder to try and get the bronze I want for the new merc so I don’t need to spend the credits in the store for it. I then take any extras/unwanted and do further trade-ups for more skins for any merc I want.
