Skin data comes from ProSettings as of October 2026. Players change skins often and may use different ones at tournaments, so this is a snapshot, not a permanent list. The source doesn't specify the Doppler phase — the images show Phase 2 as an example.
s1mple: Asiimov and Redline
The NAVI legend uses some of the most recognizable skins in the game: AWP | Asiimov ($101 in Field-Tested), AK-47 | Redline ($26.3), M4A1-S | Fade ($160) and Butterfly Knife | Doppler (from $1,647).
How to copy it cheaper: the AWP Asiimov and Redline are already affordable — keep them. Swap the Butterfly for a Navaja Knife | Doppler (Phase 2) at $97.5 — the same glossy Doppler, 15x cheaper.
NiKo: all-in on Printstream
Black-and-white Printstream on the M4 and USP, a fiery Desert Eagle | Blaze (from $544), Glock-18 | Fade (from $1,228) and the same Butterfly Doppler. M4A1-S | Printstream — $154, USP-S | Printstream — $32.3.
How to copy it cheaper: keep the Printstreams and swap the Blaze for a Desert Eagle | Printstream ($31) for a full black-and-white set. Replace the Glock Fade with the pink Glock-18 | Vogue ($3.2) and the knife with a Navaja Doppler.
ZywOo: Kill Confirmed
Vitality's star plays with the USP-S | Kill Confirmed ($59.3) — the most popular USP among pros — plus Dual Berettas | Melondrama ($5.5), M4A1-S | Fade and the Butterfly Doppler.
How to copy it cheaper: everything except the knife is already affordable. Swap the Butterfly for a Navaja Doppler and the set costs six times less.
donk: Printstream and Galil Eco
The most modest set on the list: M4A1-S | Printstream ($154) and Galil AR | Eco ($11.3). Easy to copy with almost no compromise — just take both in Battle-Scarred.
m0NESY: Kill Confirmed and Glock Fade
USP-S | Kill Confirmed ($59.3) and Glock-18 | Fade (from $1,228). Almost all the cost is the Glock: Fade only comes in Factory New and Minimal Wear. A budget swap is the Glock-18 | Vogue.
ropz: the red set
The most colorful loadout of the six — nearly all red: AK-47 | Bloodsport ($107), USP-S | Kill Confirmed, Desert Eagle | Blaze, Glock-18 | Fade and Specialist Gloves | Crimson Kimono (from $1,096).
How to copy it cheaper: keep the Bloodsport and Kill Confirmed, swap the Blaze for a Desert Eagle | Code Red ($39.1), the Glock for a Candy Apple ($1) and the gloves for Driver Gloves | Rezan the Red ($52.3). More in our red and black CS2 loadout guide.
How much pro sets and their copies cost
Totals use prices as of October 20, 2026, Field-Tested where available.
| Player | Pro set | Similar set |
|---|---|---|
| s1mple | ≈ $1,930 | ≈ $355 |
| NiKo | ≈ $3,640 | ≈ $290 |
| ZywOo | ≈ $1,880 | ≈ $330 |
| donk | ≈ $172 | ≈ $135 |
| m0NESY | ≈ $1,310 | ≈ $67 |
| ropz | ≈ $3,440 | ≈ $260 |
There's a pattern: almost every top player uses the USP-S | Kill Confirmed, a Printstream or an Asiimov — affordable skins you can start a "pro" loadout with. What makes the sets expensive is the knife, the gloves and the Glock Fade.
