Rich/Poor Inventory in CS2: Expensive and Cheap Green Sets for Any Budget!

Rich/Poor Inventory in CS2: Expensive and Cheap Green Sets for Any Budget!

Green color in Counter-Strike 2 represents wild nature, cold-bloodedness, and vibrant energy. We’ve assembled two sets of skins in green tones and, spoiler alert – they turned out absolutely gorgeous, where choosing between budget and expensive items will be one of the most difficult decisions. Therefore, the typical question for this category “is it worth paying more?” becomes more relevant than ever! Let’s go!

Gloves + Knife

Gloves + Knife

Budget Option:

  • Hand Wraps | Arboreal + Paracord Knife | Boreal Forest ($333.38)

This duo is like a walk through a dense forest. The gloves wrap your hands in brown fabric covered with khaki camouflage patterns that blend into the perfect forest vibe. The Paracord Knife | Boreal Forest continues this theme: its blade is wrapped in matte camouflage in classic green shades, while the dark green handle adds depth. This combination is like survivalist gear, but with a slight “budget” feel that doesn’t ruin the overall impression, though you can’t completely get rid of it.

Premium Option:

  • Broken Fang Gloves | Jade + Flip Knife | Gamma Doppler ($1289.90)

These gloves and knife are like an emerald catching sunlight. The Broken Fang Gloves | Jade shine with green leather and metallic luster, while the Flip Knife | Gamma Doppler blade shimmers like northern lights in a forest night. Gradient lines resembling smoke clouds make the knife the real star of this set, and this duo turns any match into an epic spectacle.

What to Choose?

The budget set is camouflage classic that pairs perfectly and is definitely worth its money. The premium option is about status and shine, where Gamma Doppler elevates even the simplest gloves to a new level.

USP-S

USP-S

Budget Option:

  • USP-S | Tropical Breeze (Field-Tested, $3.36)

Tropical Breeze is like a breath of air from a tropical island. The suppressor and body are covered with a green floral pattern where yellow accents play the role of sunlight glints. This skin is very light and unobtrusive, like a breeze in the jungle, and fits perfectly into the budget green set.

Premium Option:

  • USP-S | Monster Mashup (Minimal Wear, $57.15)

The cartoon crocodile on this artwork is ready to devour all enemies on the map. The bright green monster on the body, complemented by “MONSTER” and “FIRE” inscriptions, radiates bold energy. The suppressor looks like an artifact from a comic with blue and purple shades, animal patterns, and a green robot head. Yellow and pink details are secondary but add playfulness.

What to Choose?

Both skins are perfect for the green set, so choose based on taste and budget. In our opinion, it’s impossible to make a wrong choice here, especially considering these skins aren’t seen often in-game and can definitely provide new emotions.

Glock-18

Glock-18

Budget Option:

  • Glock-18 | Nuclear Garden (Field-Tested, $1.29)

Nuclear Garden invites you on a walk through a radioactive forest. The slide glows with neon green paint sprinkled with skulls and bones with radiation hazard signs. This skin from the Nuke collection is a classic that adds unique charm to the green set for pennies.

Premium Option:

  • Glock-18 | Gamma Doppler (Minimal Wear, $114.09)

Gamma Doppler concentrates all the magic of green shades in your hands. The slide shimmers with metallic green and turquoise waves, resembling a cosmic vortex. This is an S-tier skin that can be chosen in various phases to get the shades closest to you.

What to Choose?

No matter how you look at it, Gamma Doppler is premium power, and we really recommend saving up for it. Until then, Nuclear Garden will please the eye without any regrets.

AK-47

AK-47

Budget Option:

  • AK-47 | Wintergreen (Field-Tested, $3.65)

The matte green body looks extremely stylish and neat, and its minimalism is perfect for sticker customization. For its price, the skin looks expensive, just like elite fighter equipment.

Premium Option:

  • AK-47 | Aquamarine Revenge (Field-Tested, $49.59)

Turquoise waves and red-orange dolphins create a bright but not quite green design. The pattern outlines on the handguard and stock add depth, but unfortunately, green doesn’t dominate here.

What to Choose?

Wintergreen definitely gets its ticket to both sets due to its pure green color, and even such a low price can’t “cheapen” an expensive inventory because of its gorgeous visual. Aquamarine Revenge is beautiful, but its turquoise-red palette still stands out from this set.

M4A1-S

M4A1-S

Budget Option:

  • M4A1-S | Emphorosaur-S (Field-Tested, $1.15)

Emphorosaur-S looks like a living dinosaur from the jungle. The green body with brown stripes imitating hide is complemented by an eye and claws tearing through metal. For such a price, this is a real treasure for the green set.

Premium Option:

  • M4A1-S | Moss Quartz (Field-Tested, $63.55)

Moss Quartz has the vibe of a mossy stone polished by time. This skin from the “North” collection cost less than $1 five years ago and has now skyrocketed in price, though its industrial quality raises questions about its premium status. The fairly simple dark green metallic paint with geometric pattern doesn’t look worth its cost.

What to Choose?

Emphorosaur-S is a budget masterpiece with unique and interesting design. Moss Quartz is undoubtedly prestigious due to its collection and price, but purely visually, it’s hard to choose in its favor.

M4A4

M4A4

Budget Option:

  • M4A4 | Choppa (Factory New, $0.72)

Choppa looks like a military helicopter that landed in the jungle. The bright green camouflage looks modern and pairs perfectly with budget gloves. For pennies, this is salvation for the green set – thanks VALVE for many new green skins!

Premium Option:

  • M4A4 | In Living Color (Minimal Wear, $17.03)

Graffiti on the walls of an abandoned city. Neon green drawings and inscriptions, complemented by an image of a girl with purple hair, create a street art vibe. For the green set – a bold, bright, and completely non-obvious choice.

What to Choose?

Choppa fits perfectly into the green set thanks to its pure camouflage. In Living Color is cool and despite its questionable color scheme, it’s worth considering, especially if you love unconventional solutions.

AWP

AWP

Budget Option:

  • AWP | Atheris (Minimal Wear, $9.05)

The famous venomous snake slithering through the jungle. The blue-green viper on a black background and scaly pattern on the scope make the skin stylish and affordable. Many would agree this is one of the best price/quality options for AWP.

Premium Option:

  • AWP | Containment Breach (Field-Tested, $104.46)

Here we see a radioactive forest full of monsters with glowing eyes. The neon green background screams energy, while unpainted parts with green accents add depth. This is an explosive skin that truly attracts attention.

What to Choose?

Atheris is good, but its “people’s” status reduces uniqueness, so if you want to blind everyone, go for Containment Breach.

Conclusion: Budget or Premium?

  • Budget Set – $352.57 
  • Premium Set – $1694.87

Honestly, except for two skins in Gamma Doppler coloring, there weren’t many really expensive items in the premium set. This allows you to throw away unnecessary thoughts and focus only on appearance and your taste. Enjoy the green set with any skins and start saving for Gamma Doppler, which will sooner or later put the final touch on your look.
