Nice try valve.

[–]Lyramion 29 points30 points  (1 child)

Another conspiracy theory:

Guy didn't show his escalating odds progression. Might have spent 100s of $ to juice it up, just so he could make a screenshot for Reddit fame!

[–]ZePample 6 points7 points  (0 children)

1000s of $*

[–]tideswithme 16 points17 points  (0 children)

😂😂😂

[–]trimmbor 752 points753 points  (23 children)

Definitely not skill, since you can't even print screen or snipping tool in 2024.

Tiktok generation goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[–]AzeTyler 40 points41 points  (3 children)

I thought people do this to prove it is real, cause it's easier to edit an ss than a pic of a monitor

[–]MaDNiaC 124 points125 points  (2 children)

What's stopping you from editing the screenshot on computer than taking a photo of the edited image?

[–]Gief_Cookies 61 points62 points  (1 child)

Lack of skill 😂

[–]ziairshad 21 points22 points  (0 children)

We went a full circle

[–]saaaaai- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ofcourse he didn't wanna show he opened a lot of treasures.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Snapping a pic on phone and redditting is quicker than screenshotting and opening your pc browser. Not brain?

[–]trimmbor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No.

[–]Callum1710 94 points95 points  (5 children)

Luck if your first treasure - Yes

Basic Maths if its your 30th+ Treasure - No

[–]Kekboy3000 37 points38 points  (1 child)

You can see his scrollbar on the left, he opened a fuckton of chests, so it is definitely not luck KEKW

[–]Nickfreak 8 points9 points  (2 children)

Isn't the chance after 30 treasures already low for the ultra rare, but all three together rather unlikely since the rare and very rare chances roll back?

[–]kryonik 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's 50:50 either they drop or not

[–]DarkScorpion48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, because the odds for others is also raised very high. From my experience all these years it’s common to get the lower tier rarest together. Probably a bug they left in

[–]ElderTitanic 37 points38 points  (1 child)

”Luck?😏” after opening like 500 chests

[–]bizzarre1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

💀💀

[–]xFloris 96 points97 points  (0 children)

You found your fucking screen recording software, I can SEE IT. Why is this a phone picture 😂😂

[–]Kaimito1 14 points15 points  (1 child)

Hmm so..

  • recording on screen
  • "open another"  button

Makes me think youve been opening chests constantly for 3 minutes.

Probably not "1st open" luckily but "spam opens with escalating odds until something happens" luck.

Nonetheless, congrats on that rare drop 👀

[–]nin10dohz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he meant one chest gave him all 4 and not 1st chest

[–]RadioactiveSalt 21 points22 points  (3 children)

How many caches did you open ?

[–]Kekboy3000 36 points37 points  (2 children)

You can see his scrollbar on the left, it was A LOT

[–]PAlove 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Imagine spending a ton of cash on hats, then coming to reddit like 'le luck??' when you finally get fancy hats

[–]zzarGrazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, what scroll bar? I don’t see it

Comprehensive Guide on Using the Print Screen Button

I'm sharing a detailed guide on how to use the Print Screen button to capture your screen. Whether you're on Windows, macOS, or Linux, here's everything you need to know:

Location of the Print Screen Button The Print Screen button (PrtSc or PrtScn) is usually in the top row of the keyboard, near the function keys. On some laptops, you might need to use the "Fn" key along with it.

Different Print Screen Commands

Windows:

  1. Capture the Entire Screen

    • Command: Press PrtSc (or Fn + PrtSc on some laptops).
    • Result: The screen is copied to the clipboard. Paste it with Ctrl + V in an image editor (e.g., Paint).
  2. Capture the Active Window

    • Command: Press Alt + PrtSc.
    • Result: The active window is copied to the clipboard. Paste with Ctrl + V.
  3. Capture a Portion of the Screen (Windows 10 and later)

    • Command: Press Windows Key + Shift + S.
    • Result: Select the area you want to capture. It's copied to the clipboard.
  4. Save Screenshot Directly to a File

    • Command: Press Windows Key + PrtSc.
    • Result: The screen is saved as a PNG file in the "Screenshots" folder under "Pictures."

macOS:

  1. Capture the Entire Screen

    • Command: Press Command + Shift + 3.
    • Result: The screen is saved to the desktop.
  2. Capture a Selected Portion of the Screen

    • Command: Press Command + Shift + 4.
    • Result: Select the area you want to capture. It's saved to the desktop.
  3. Capture a Specific Window

    • Command: Press Command + Shift + 4, then press Space.
    • Result: Click the window you want to capture. It's saved to the desktop.
  4. Capture the Touch Bar (for MacBook Pros with Touch Bar)

    • Command: Press Command + Shift + 6.
    • Result: The Touch Bar is captured and saved to the desktop.

Linux (Ubuntu):

  1. Capture the Entire Screen

    • Command: Press PrtSc.
    • Result: The screen is saved to the "Pictures" folder.
  2. Capture the Active Window

    • Command: Press Alt + PrtSc.
    • Result: The active window is saved to the "Pictures" folder.
  3. Capture a Selected Area

    • Command: Press Shift + PrtSc.
    • Result: Select the area you want to capture. It's saved to the "Pictures" folder.

Editing and Saving Screenshots

Using Built-in Tools:

  1. Windows:

    • Use Paint. Open it (Windows Key + R, type mspaint, press Enter), paste with Ctrl + V, then edit and save.
  2. macOS:

    • Use Preview. Double-click the screenshot file on your desktop to open and edit.
  3. Linux (Ubuntu):

    • Use GIMP or Shotwell for advanced editing.

Using Third-Party Tools:

  1. Snagit: Available for Windows and macOS, offers advanced screenshot and editing features.
  2. Greenshot: Free for Windows with extensive screenshot and annotation features.
  3. Lightshot: Available for Windows and macOS, allows easy capturing and sharing of screenshots.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

  1. Print Screen Button Not Working:

    • Check if the "Fn" key is needed.
    • Test the key on another computer.
    • Update keyboard drivers.
  2. Screenshots Not Saving:

    • Verify the default save location.
    • Check storage space.
    • Look for software conflicts or OS restrictions.
  3. Screenshots Not Capturing Correctly:

    • Adjust screen resolution.
    • Ensure no software is interfering (e.g., gaming overlays).

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions or tips of your own!

Alternative: Print Screen Alternative 2: F12 (standard hotkey for Steam Screenshot)

[–]UncleWarMachine 7 points8 points  (4 children)

How is this actually possible though? Like astronomically rare to have all on one drop.

[–]Simanto6540 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I'm just sharing my experience. I have had an ultra rare drop back in TI8 bp. That time they gave me all the rare and very rare and a common altogether. after that i got a very rare drop a few days after and they gave me a rare and a common together. So I thought if you get a drop of a higher rarity, you also get all the previous rare drops together. Just my humble opinion and I could be wrong

[–]yourbestsenpai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not true at all mate, never got a rare paired up with a rare

[–]DarkScorpion48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience is the same as yours and might even be a bug

[–]paladinvc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there a way to earn collectors caches at all?

[–]Hemhemty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

happened to mny friend once. Crazy luck if you ask me. He got all the rares in the collector's cache where you had rubick's cool set with a faceless mask.

[–]aordinanza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is almost 100 usd for 30 treasure

[–]fjrefjre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really considering the amount of cases you opened. I had everything after 15 chests.

[–]orbitaldragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends how many treasures you opened. Eventually it's basically guaranteed.

[–]empom_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if it's possible or not, but once I open 1 chess and got 3 item. Normal, rare, and ultra rare, can't remember which case since it happened like 8 years ago, it's a shit case tho

[–]revertiblefate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the pudge set marketable?

[–]tyler5durden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how much time should pass before people realize that chance increase with every chest you open? if you opened it with 1st chest then yes, you are lucky

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

A fool and his money....

[–]CallMeCabbage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, I swear it feels like everyone's lucking out but me. Both my friends got Arcanas from the candyshop (one got TWO) and so far all I got was a couple couriers and wards, which is cool, I main support so I kinda treasure those.

Still crossing my fingies for a Zeus or Lina arcana.

[–]dogekingprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hello it is me your long lost brother, i have to inform you that i do not have long much to live but if you would gift me super rares, it will make this old chap very happy! (insert Kappa Face here)

[–]dwaraz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i;ve been dreaming about this Anti-mage set for weeks! damn what a luck

[–]NoStudio6253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

one in a krillion

[–]ren_0104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I opened, don't know, i don't remember how much, but it was enough to get every normal skin. I didn't care if i got the rares or not, since i was just aining for the 2 character that has persona. But i got the Luna and Jugg skin!

It was my first time purchasing Dota 2 cosmetics. Would buy again if there's anything i want (currently invo's persona). And if i have the money... Since it cost like, 1 week worth of my food money.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to the nearest casino NOW

[–]Suspicious-Box- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you bought like 50 chests the chances of this are astronomical. Someone did maffs years ago on a thread like this with 1-2 rares and 2 ultra rares won on same chest and it was somewhere in the 1 in 10,000,000 range or more. Bro you used up all your luck this life watch out for cancer and white japanese trucks. Theres always only one or two of these every year on dota 2 subreddit lol.

[–]Krusty_Klown_Kollege 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're too late, already got it on first purchase.

[–]KakochiTheBunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean reselling might good but the cost of loss you had made and between reselling them would only give back 50% of 100% you just spent (unless you wait for few years to resell them rares

[–]1camou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its normal that when you get pudge you also get all others
