Welcome one and all to the one Crate a Week Challenge.

                     Unusuals, the most treasured and prized items in Team Fortress 2. It's not an understatement to say that they're the best, and if not the coolest hats in TF2.

However they're a pain in the ass to get.

And if not one of the most difficult items to get in the game.

So exactly what is the "One Crate a Week Challenge" You say?

Well for starters, I just want to point this out. This is not my original idea. However, i'm not exactly sure who came up with this idea originally. (And I would appreciate it if any of you could tell me.)

It's pretty self explanatory; Every week I unbox one randomly selected crate from one friend/user.

If I get an unusual, then the challenge is over. If I don't get an unusual, then i'll either A: Raf. off whatever I unbox or B: Keep and or use it to buy more keys. Exactly how raffles will work is beyond me, but i'll update on how things will work out here as time goes by.

Each week I'll talk about what crate i'm unboxing and the prices of each item with in it. I'll leave a picture as to showing what I got from the crate, as well as how I feel about the item and whether or not I'll raf. it off.

But without any further hesitations, let's get this party started.

DAY ONE:

 If you're reading this, then you're probably already and average Team Fortress 2 player. Seriously, if you're reading this and have a good 16 hours under your belt, you might want to get more familiar with the TF2 community.

Aside from that, deciding on which crate to open first was a toughy, as the majority of the crates I own right now just have killstreak kits in them, however I do have one crate in particular that doesn't have kits. That crate just so happens to be crate #76 which includes the following:

CRATE #76

• The Concheror: 0.33

• Revolver: 0.33
• Eviction Notice: 0.21
• Strange Part: Killstreaks Ended: 0.66
• Strange Cosmetic Part: Freeze Cam Taunt Appearances: 1-1.44
• Strange Part: Damage Dealt: 3-4 keys
• Front Runner: 1.33-1.66
• Cold Killer: 1.65

Ouch. Not the greatest crate to start off with, but that Damage Dealt is extremely tempting.

LET ME HEAR YOUR UNCRATING BATTLE CRY!!!

Uncrating your loot in 5,4,3,2,1...

*Creeking noise

My new item is...

Now hey! Thats actually not that bad. I'll admit it, I was crossing my fingers for the Damage Dealt part, but seeing as the first crate gave me my first hat of the challenge, I don't really mind it. I'll keep this one until further notice.

*Note: I'll only show loadouts for new cosmetic items that I obtain.

 Now I know this first day probably wasn't as crazy as the future ones will be, and especially with the new crates and October around the corner. But trust me, these posts will be a lot more entertaining and have plenty of aggravation in them. You can bet on that last part, I can already see myself getting Strange Jarate...

Until next week, I'll do another uncrating from another random crate. Hopefully the new crates will have came out (And hopefully new weapons too) Have a nice rest of the week folks, and happy uncrating.
