On April 30, 2022, Twitch star Felix “xQc” pulled an extremely rare knife during a livestream.
Felix had been playing the Overwatch 2 closed beta for the past few days, but today he decided to take a break and stream a variety of games. He jumped into the tactical world of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and opened several cases in between his gaming streams.
xQc managed to pull the coveted StatTrak Karambit Marble Fade on stream after spending several hours opening various loot boxes in the hopes of scoring a rare knife. His followers were astounded to learn of the streamer’s good fortune.
Not long ago, the former Overwatch pro admitted that he was still addicted to gambling and that he would gamble in-game in some way or another. The streamer spent a lot of time opening loot boxes in the game during a livestream earlier today, trying to get some fancy skins for various guns in the first-person shooter game. He’d been streaming for four hours when a viewer suggested he buy some of the game’s different cases. A Chroma 2 case was one of them.
All of the stars aligned for the Twitch streamer, and he was able to pull a rare item live. The item in question was a StatTrak-equipped Karambit knife.
StatTrak is a CS: GO weapon skin tracking tool that allows players to keep track of how many kills they’ve gotten with each skin. It’s a unique feature that increases the worth of a skin in the game.
xQc examined the skin and declared it to be Factory New. It had a float of 0.02 and was of near-perfect quality. The skin was worth CDN $1,512.44 when he opened the community market, and the last one was sold on April 29, 2022. He quickly loaded up a bot game to check out the magnificent skin and continued to open cases for a few more hours.
The Twitch streamer’s good fortune during the livestream was amusing to Redditors. Many people were surprised by the skin’s worth. The knife’s extremely rare quality was discussed by fans.
Some fans speculated that this video would encourage more streamers to join the CS:GO case opening meta. On the purple platform, xQc is currently ranked as the number one English streamer. He has over 10 million followers and an average of 88k viewers per stream.
