These are MUCH bluer (in terms of total coverage) than the original Care Hardened pattern could ever reach. If you want a Blue Gem the Heat Treated are the way forward, but they do lack Gold Gem and similar "alt" patterns.
Yep my five seven heat treated seems to have one of the lowest amounts of blue possible but doesn't really look anything like the gold gem. I kind of like it though, it's definitely unique.
Personally, I think it could possibly be worth a good chunk of change (possibly), with how gorgeous of a blue it is. Maybe it's just me admiring the skin, though, lol. (edit) unless these patterns aren't that rare, since there seems to be quite a few different blue gem patterns.
Only if there are a lot of them. It seems rare enough that it could have some good value, plus it's a limited time special item that will never be obtained again when the pass expires since you can't trade up to it. Long term I'm guessing at LEAST thousands of $ if not 10s.
@@ArmourGX Edit: the problem with these is it seems to be % based, not pattern based. Making it far easier to get very blue looking ones. They’re basically fade deagles. And fade percentage only demands so much overpay depending on the item. With a deagle literally everyone can get, it won’t be much.
@@ArmourGX10k dollars for easy obtainable skin with ~10% rarity from a 15$ pass which lasts longer than 100 days? Boy be real it's gonna cost 50$ MAX after a year.
Feel like your chance to get a good deagle is much lower than just going for the cases/collection items honestly. I don't see most of the deagles being worth much money since the pass is $15 and you can nearly get 2 deagles for the cost of 1 pass.
@@ArmourGX I have 5 passes, total of 200 points, 8 deagle attempts and then i don't know if i have to buy more passes after that but given the limited time the deagles are available compared to all other other skins and charms etc, every point i earn is going towards deagles until they're gone...
