yeah no more green is annoying. now people will think i'm poor.
Quzga Nov 18 @ 2:30pm 
Yea I couldnt care less, I just wanted them in-game and that it says genuine on them
cYc0 Nov 18 @ 1:01pm 
Interesting, I did not expect that from you guys.
ROFL Nov 18 @ 5:18am 
i care a lot its stupid that its been changed, the whole difference is the green border
FluxZ Nov 17 @ 5:00pm 
I will admit that I do get extra satisfaction seeing the green border on my Genuines since I don't see it on other profiles.
cYc0 Nov 17 @ 11:22am 
Plebs not knowing the difference has always been the case though, that's why it's an elite club for connoisseurs. Genuine Pins never provided bragging rights to the unwashed masses, unlike expensive skins. :-)
Gab Nov 17 @ 5:27am 
me too, I feel like all the new people don't even know genuines anymore
💕Kicia 💕 Nov 17 @ 12:26am 
i do care a little
cYc0 Nov 16 @ 10:51am 
I don't think collectors really care though.
FluxZ Nov 13 @ 7:54pm 
did the same for souvenir collectors too.
Gab Nov 13 @ 12:53am 
New rarity color update on Steam killed our green borders 🥀
ROFL Aug 15 @ 1:09am 
yh i saw that the otehr day, quite cool tbh
RB Jun 22 @ 8:37pm 
They were like 20 at Boston. But at the end of the tournament I think my sign about pins made it on the screen behind the caster's desk.
ROFL Jun 22 @ 6:21pm 
its not about profitability, they could sell them for $10 a pop at the major and they would sell out. its just one of those things where there isnt a designated merch team at valve for cs. perfect world major had insane merch, in fact perfect world do loads of merch nto just for the major. it is just a case of valve being innefficient and lazy.
Quzga Jun 21 @ 4:22pm 
Haha yea I reached out to the HLTV guy to ask if they could include it in their claw game!
RB Jun 21 @ 4:22pm 
My friend got one of those chicken knife pins at hltv.
Quzga Jun 21 @ 3:10pm 
Honestly they could just sell to order on their site if transportation is an issue, they already ship merch anyways. Better than nothing
Quzga Jun 21 @ 2:50pm 
Yeah.. We will never know without a new release sadly, they really hate giving concrete answers lol. My friend (creator of AK inheritance) made his own CS pin cuz we were bored with lack of CS merch, got quite a few I plan to give away soon if any of guys want one!

(Not same thing as official but still :p) https://imgur.com/a/cWjEN8q

I'm definitely getting people asking about pins in person in the arena. I have a extras I'm wearing on my hat. People want them. If only VALVe would answer.
ROFL Jun 15 @ 5:11pm 
Valve dont really care unfortunately. It's just not a priority so no one is doing it. Probably better for this group though cos the number of people that would buy S4 from this group is probably less than half
Quzga Jun 15 @ 10:53am 
He's gonna dump them all off his yacht and leave cryptic notes on how to find them
RB Jun 15 @ 9:32am 
I really figured it would be this if they didn't do Paris. It's in the US, they just need to drive it to ship it to Austin rather than paying for air shipping.
Gab Jun 15 @ 6:57am 
Re-organizing the logistics from what was once a familiar process will likely take the team forever unfortunately. I still see it happening, just not soon. Valve Time does tick, even if it's slow.
ROFL Jun 15 @ 5:25am 
they never making them because WElovefine got closed down
Quzga Jun 15 @ 4:05am 
Like a week ago lmao
Quzga Jun 15 @ 2:41am 
Valve is strange, they made prototype train collection keys. Gave me one, then took it away 2 hours later.

Why make them something if they don't plan on using it lol
Ace Jun 15 @ 1:28am 
lmao if not this major it's never happening
RB Jun 13 @ 1:26pm 
Anyone happen to have an E League Boston major pin?
Quzga Jun 13 @ 9:49am 
Yeah, it's about time! And on home turf too for valve.. :zageyes:
RB Jun 12 @ 6:47pm 
Praying for new series in Austin, I'm gonna buy as many boxes as they let me.
Quzga Jun 10 @ 2:13pm 
Welcome! :balatro_egg:
FluxZ Jun 10 @ 2:06pm 
We just got another new member. Welcome, kurp.
boo May 13 @ 9:34pm 
<3
FluxZ May 13 @ 9:19pm 
boodee is now our newest member
Ace Feb 23 @ 11:31pm 
Maybe I'll actually go since I live in Austin... :O
RB Feb 23 @ 1:59pm 
Still mad they weren't at Paris for the last major I attended.
Quzga Feb 23 @ 10:27am 
Too bad it's so pricey for Europeans, always wanted to visit Austin.

Maybe if I get a lucky year :er_sad:
RB Feb 23 @ 8:43am 
I'll be at Austin for the major, fingers crossed we get series 4 then.
Gab Feb 10 @ 3:00pm 
W! Welcome to the club ManLew! :big_heart:
FluxZ Oct 18, 2024 @ 4:11pm 
I stand corrected. Ngl, I never knew where the MLG major took place.
FluxZ Oct 18, 2024 @ 3:18pm 
Always? There has only ever been one lol. I wish I didn't skip the Boston major as I would have driven if it was there now.
RB Oct 2, 2024 @ 4:57pm 
I'll be at the Texas major as well
FluxZ Oct 1, 2024 @ 11:48am 
I'll likely be going to the major in Texas next year if everything goes as expected. I'd pick one up if you happen to be there and still handing them out.
Quzga Sep 28, 2024 @ 7:07am 
Glad you guys like it! He printed 100 and has quite a lot left, so maybe could do some giveaway with just the pin group? I'd be down too.

Also got Hoxton, sticker creator on and will send me some Door Stuck stuff he had made!

When Valve is boring, guess community gotta do our own stuff. Endrit said he might go to katowice (or future event) and give out a bunch too!
Gab Sep 28, 2024 @ 4:36am 
@Quzga: Def. retweeting this (@offbeat), really cool!
Quzga Sep 28, 2024 @ 4:18am 
Hey guys, me and my friend Endrit (creator of AK inheritance) made some of our own pins since not only is the game dry af, so are the pin scene.. g


Gonna do a giveaway of them soon if anyone is interested. https://x.com/Quzga_/status/1838260968654057897
FluxZ Apr 16, 2024 @ 8:34pm 
I missed out on the Boston one because of school and work. Fingers crossed for another one on the east coast.
RB Apr 16, 2024 @ 9:19am 
I was hoping for another US major, I went to the Paris one without any luck but it was a lot of fun. But nothing will beat Boston after only having to drive 30 min to the event from where I live.
ROFL Mar 29, 2024 @ 12:06am 
I’m gonna go to the shanghai major, let’s hope they drop there
Gab Mar 28, 2024 @ 8:42am 
damn wtf is valve doing, thanks for keeping us up-to-date
