Odds are Valve’s published container probabilities; each item within a tier is equally likely, so per-item odds are the tier chance divided by the number of items in that tier. StatTrak appears on roughly 10% of non-special drops. Souvenir and other container types can differ.

Expected Value Analysis

Recovery rank: #33 of 42 cases — see the full ranking, or open this case free in the simulator.

Expected Return per Opening
$1.86

Against a $6.78 cost (case $4.29 + key $2.49) — you recover 27%, though that figure rests on an assumption about this case’s unpriced knives — on the range of assumptions our data allows it sits between 27% and 29%

Expected Loss per Opening
$4.92

79.92% of openings return a low-value Mil-Spec — the distribution, not bad luck, drives the result

Rare Special (Knife/Gloves) Value
$107.78

Average across the 48 of 52 finishes in this case’s gold pool we hold a price for, hit 0.26% of the time

Method: within a rarity tier every skin drops with equal probability, and within the gold tier every knife or glove finish the case can actually drop does; each outcome is valued at its cheapest listed wear across markets, with StatTrak folded into non-gold drops at the published ~10%. Because every outcome is taken at its cheapest wear and those are buyer prices rather than what a seller banks after market fees, the figure is rough in both directions at once. Prices updated Aug 27, 2026. The same numbers, computed the same way but published only where every outcome carries a real price, are on our case RTP breakdown. If you want a specific skin, trade-ups or buying it directly are almost always cheaper than opening for it.

What this figure assumes. 4 of the 52 knife/glove finishes this case can drop — ★ Nomad Knife, ★ Paracord Knife, ★ Skeleton Knife and ★ Survival Knife — are plain, un-finished knives we hold no price for. They are assumed to be worth $107.78, the average of the 48 finishes we can price. That assumption is not a floor: if those knives are worth less the real recovery is nearer 27%, and if they are worth as much as this pool's dearest finish it is nearer 29%.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Shattered Web Case worth opening?
On average, no. Opening the Shattered Web Case costs $6.78 (case plus key) and returns an expected $1.86 in skin value — you recover about 27% of what you spend, with the 0.26% knife/gloves chance (averaging $107.78 across the priced gold pool) already included. That percentage is not exact: 4 of this case's 52 knife/glove finishes are plain, un-finished knives we hold no price for, and assuming a different value for them moves the answer to between 27% and 29%. Opening is entertainment; if you want a specific skin, buying it directly is almost always cheaper.
What are the odds of getting a knife from the Shattered Web Case?
The odds of pulling the rare special item (a knife) from the Shattered Web Case are 0.26% per opening — Valve's published rate for the gold "Rare Special Item" tier.
