Can you still get item drops by watching livestreams

No quickscoping like in 1.6 does not work anymore there are a few things that cause this:

1. Zooming in/out takes a lot longer it is no longer instant as in 1.6.
2. If you are moving when zoomed in your accuracy is greatly reduced thus making it impossible to do real quickscopes like in 1.6 seeing you have to stand perfectly still for your shots to go anywhere near your target.

These 2 points make it impossible to quickscope cs 1.6 style.

the quickscoping you can do now is more like quickscoping in call of duty albeit less accurate.

For item drops, it boils down to 3 categories:

1. Weapons
   • Individual skins that drop are parts of certain Collections
     • A year ago-ish several of the original weapon collection skins were retired, meaning you cannot receive them as a drop from the item-drop system
     • Collections that you can currently receive item-drops from
       • The Train Collection
       • The Mirage Collection
       • The Safehouse Collection
       • The Italy Collection
       • The Lake Collection
       • The Dust II Collection
       • The Bank Collection
   • Weapons originating from Cases cannot be found as a drop
   • StatTrak weapons cannot be found as a drop
2. Cases & Capsules
   • There are always 3-5 cases in rotation in the item drop system
   • As new cases come in, old cases are phased out.
   • Some cases are for Operation pass-holders
     • For instance, the current operation is called Operation Breakout, with a case called Operation Breakout Case
     • This means that the Operation Breakout Case will drop for only for Operation Breakout pass holders
   • Older Operation drops are available to anyone, but this usually up to Valve's discretion
     • The previous Operation, Operation Phoenix, had it's own case specific for its own passholders, called the Operation Phoenix Case
     • The Operation Phoenix case used to be only for passholders, but can now be received as an item drop by anyone
   • Sticker Capsules can drop
   • Exclusive Sticker Capsules cannot drop. For example, the Katowice 2014 Challengers capsule (had to be bought in-game)
3. Missions
   • This was introduced in Operation Breakout
   • Missions WILL not drop for players without the Operation Breakout Pass
   • Completing a mission will give you a weapon drop from 3 specific collections:
     • The Baggage Collection
     • The Overpass Collection
     • The Cobblestone Collection
     • This means the above 3 colletion weapons CANNOT be found through regular item-drop system
