In Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Félix “xQc” Lengyel’s trade-up attempts for a Dragon Lore AWP were a nightmare for any fan. Lengyel is no stranger to losing enormous sums of money through gambling.
Millions of people follow popular Twitch streamer and former Overwatch pro xQc because of his outbursts and risky trading practices. Although his aim may not be the best in CSGO, his inventory is already tantalizing. Many CSGO players only dream of owning xQc’s skins because they are filled with rare items.
However, the former professional didn’t think twice before risking $2,000 and nine other skins in the hope of winning an AWP. In a recent stream, xQc made a terrible attempt to unlock a Dragon Lore AWP.
Due to CSGO’s risky trade-up system, the streamer lost some of his inventory’s most expensive skins. For skin traders and streamers in CSGO, Dragon Lore is the ultimate goal. Popular streamers regularly engage in live trade-ups, but many have lost a lot of money trying to get the coveted golden AWP. The list of streamers who have lost money while trading continues to grow, and xQc is the most recent.
xQc assembled a collection of 10 skins for his most recent stream in the hopes of winning a Dragon Lore. What you choose will directly affect the trade-up contract’s potential outcomes. Due to the enormous cost of the skin, the skins that can be used to obtain one are also very expensive.
Based on what he traded in, xQc only had a 10% chance of receiving the Dragon Lore AWP. The streamer decided to take a chance despite the danger. He miserably landed on snake eyes.
He was aiming for Dragon Lore, which sells for $14,000, but instead got an SSG Blood in the Water for about $50. His ten skins were not cheap either, and the game destroyed them to create the SSG. The M4A1-S Knight from xQc cost over $2,000, and the M4A4 Poseidon costs $1,400. Simply put, xQc experienced a significant loss.
The streamer, who has admittedly already lost millions of dollars in casinos, doesn’t frequently care about these losses.
However, he appeared genuinely disappointed about this. Participants in the chat had anticipated this result. Expert CSGO traders were aware of the numerous flaws in xQc’s strategy for obtaining the skin.
Three UMP Fade skins and just one M4A4 Knight were in xQc’s trade lineup. Comparatively, Anomaly was able to trade up for the skin by using six P90 Cold Blooded and four Knight skins to obtain a Dragon Lore. Regardless, the latest loss may prevent xQc from engaging in risky CSGO trading for some time.
