The best and most expensive CSGO skins and crafts of 2022

Every year there is an influx of new players in CSGO. It can be old veterans returning or just new players. Anyway, what brings them together besides the love for Counter Strike are CSGO skins. Valve is kind enough to give players a bunch of new skins to choose from every year, and 2021 was no different.

In 2021 we got Operation Riptide with 4 new skin collections, namely:

The train collection
The Mirage Collection
The Dust2 collection
The Vertigo Collection

There was also the Riptide case with a host of new knife finishes for The Butterfly Knife, The Huntsman Knife, The Bowie Knife, The Falchion Knife and Shadow Daggers – all with Gamma Doppler and Lore finishes.

Players haven’t been too far behind in creating new skins, with old stickers of their choosing, with the most popular being from EMS One Katowice 2014, which may include the best stickers ever in CSGO in the form of iBuypower Holos and Titan Holos.
