Understanding Huntsman Case EV
The expected value of the Huntsman Case depends on the current market prices of all skins it contains, weighted by their drop probabilities. Since approximately 80% of drops are Mil-Spec items worth very little, the EV is heavily influenced by the value of the rarer items — particularly the covert and knife/gloves tier.
When calculating EV, remember that the total cost per opening includes both the case price and the key price ($2.49). Even if a case sells for $0.03 on the Steam Market, the total opening cost is still $2.52, making the effective EV calculation require a relatively high average return to break even.
