This post follows those picks slot by slot, from the agents and the Zeus through all 34 guns to seven knife and glove combos, with what each skin looks like in your hands and what it cost on SkinsMonkey on October 23, 2026.
If you only want the lowest price per gun, our list of the cheapest CS2 skins covers the ten-cent floor, and the full CS2 inventory for $50 builds a loadout to a fixed budget.
Every skin below is in the video because its finish, colors or detail read as a more expensive skin in first person, and most of them still cost less than a dollar or two.
The video came out on May 30, 2026 and quotes May prices. Most guns moved by a few cents since then, but the knives in the combos went up by 11 to 52 dollars each.
The tables show the SkinsMonkey price on October 23 for the wear named in the video, plus live From and Up to prices across all wears: a Field-Tested Tec-9 | Whiteout cost $2.91, a Factory New one $248.17.
Float, StatTrak and the pattern can move the price further within the same wear, and where the video picks a StatTrak or Souvenir copy we list the regular one.
