On the Sport Gloves | Big Game, the pattern seed decides how the gloves look more than on almost any other pair: the most valued seeds are the ones with the most orange on the back of the hand (580, 705, 921, 106 and 93), followed by the rare Cat's Eyes (537), Fire (727) and the 189 and 826 combo patterns that match a Skeleton Knife. A regular copy costs from about $100 in Battle-Scarred to around $700 in Factory New, and collectors pay extra for a good seed. This guide covers every notable pattern group, how to check a seed, and where to buy the one you want.
The Big Game finish stands out from the rest of the Sport Gloves thanks to its hunting camo with orange, brown and white accents, with the amount of each color changing from seed to seed. The gloves came out in December 2020 with Operation Broken Fang, yet they still look fresh, and CS2's lighting makes the orange pop in direct sunlight. They also look great in a combo if you already have a few orange skins in your inventory.
Sport Gloves Big Game Pattern Tier List
The Big Game design takes its inspiration from the hunting camo of the same name. You have probably seen vests, jackets and other gear with similar prints in a hunting or fishing store. The camo is meant to help a hunter blend into an autumn forest. The gloves combine synthetic, rubber and leather parts in tones that range from dark black and brown to vibrant orange and honey yellow.
The main attraction is the camo print on the outer side, and the seed controls both the layout and the amount of orange. Beyond the orange patches, white elements imitate tree branches. The value of a seed comes down to:
how much orange sits on the upper middle part of the back of the hand;
symmetry: two equally bright gloves are worth more than a pair where only one glove carries the orange;
recognizable "pictures" the community singles out (cat's eyes, fire);
compatibility with a specific knife when the seed belongs to a known combo.
The most notable patterns are below. The easiest way to find the pattern index of a specific copy is to inspect it; see our guide on how to check a skin pattern in CS2.
Big Game Patterns With the Most Orange
Patterns: 580, 705, 921, 106, 93
Right glove: 854, 927
As the name suggests, these seeds put the largest amount of orange on the back of the gloves, and they are the tier collectors want most. Seeds 854 and 927 form a separate group: the orange is concentrated on the right glove, so they rank a little below the fully orange seeds but well above an average copy.
Cat's Eyes Big Game Pattern
Pattern: 537
This seed hides a small, unintentional Easter egg: an orange paint splatter on the lower part of the right glove that looks like a pair of cat's eyes. It is quite popular among Big Game collectors because the picture is easy to recognize even in a screenshot.
Combo Big Game Patterns
Patterns: 189, 826
These seeds are meant to be paired with the Skeleton Knife | Urban Masked. Not just any Skeleton Knife will do: you need pattern 745, which has a white ring on the handle. Combined with Big Game 189 or 826, the branches on the gloves visually connect with the ring on the knife. The combo is hard to assemble because you need two specific seeds at once. The knife itself starts at about $130 in a regular pattern, and more strong pairings are collected in our top knife and glove combos.
Big Game Fire Pattern
Pattern: 727
This seed scatters orange details across the whole glove, so the gloves look as if they are on fire. It works especially well with Tiger Tooth knives, such as the M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth.
Sport Gloves Big Game Price and How to Get Them
Big Game comes in all five wears, from Factory New to Battle-Scarred (float 0.06 to 0.80). On LIS-SKINS, a regular copy costs about $100 in Battle-Scarred, around $120 in Field-Tested and Well-Worn, around $190 in Minimal Wear and about $700 in Factory New. Since the gap between Battle-Scarred and Field-Tested is small, those wears are the best place to look for an affordable copy with a good seed. A rare seed is priced by collector demand and can cost several times more than a regular one.
The gloves drop as a rare special item from the Operation Broken Fang, Snakebite and Recoil cases. Since autumn 2025 you can also get them through a trade-up: 5 Covert skins return a random knife or pair of gloves from the collections of the inputs, as explained in our guide to crafting knives and gloves. Either way the seed is random, so buying a specific pattern on the market is the reliable route. To compare Big Game with other models, see the CS2 gloves tier list, and for another Sport Gloves finish, read our guide to Sport Gloves Nocts patterns.
