Input Skins (Restricted)
Why Float, Rarity and Collection Matter for Trade-Ups
In CS2 trade-up contracts, the output skin's wear is determined by a mathematical formula using each input skin's float value and float range. Lower input floats produce better output conditions, which often means significantly higher output prices.
The collection determines which skins can appear as output, and the rarity determines the tier. Understanding these mechanics is the key to finding profitable contracts.
Float Value Details
Trade-Up Float Formula
adjusted_float = (input_float - 0.00) / (0.70 - 0.00)
When Glock-18 | Water Elemental is used as a trade-up input, its float value is first normalized to the skin's specific float range (0.00 – 0.70). The adjusted float contributes to the average that determines output float.
Output Float Prediction
With 10× Glock-18 | Water Elemental inputs at the same float, the output float for Covert skins in the The Breakout Collection would be:
output_float = out_min + avg_adjusted_float × (out_max - out_min)
