Two things broke this week. Valve overhauled reloading, shifted the weapon meta overnight, and terminal gloves hit first listings — all while market data went dark. Here’s what it means for your skins.
This week’s de_news covers the full market impact of the ammo patch on skin demand (M4A4/AUG vs M4A1-S), terminal glove pricing and the 150% arbitrage spread Valve accidentally built in, why cases dipped across the board, and a factory new rarity prediction I’m putting on the record.
