You can get the crates from halloween transmutes. Source: me, because I saw someone do it on a server.

[QUOTE=Yukinari;51246171]Wait you cant unbox the original halloween effects?[/QUOTE] you can only unbox the 4 effects from this year. All others are not unboxable this year.

Well, least I know a Starstorm Sluber Merc's Mohawk Exists. It seems Multi-class hats are popular and I've already been on a server crapping out unusuals from them so maybe I'll get lucky and more will pop up before the event ends. [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/242458830521787924/CA0F4B20CA6D7A5F83567EB2F783FE1D0F281A92/[/t] Now just gotta hope I can get one to trade it for one of mine. Might toss up few potential pieces ( even some I'd rather not part with, but would rather have that hat more ) for the sake of having a hat/effect that goes along with my name of Stargazer.

It means that there'll be no short supply of them at the end of SF8 and I can get one for a good price.
If you guys want to make a quick buck, buy a couple keys and a shit ton of description tags ($0.16USD on SCM) and transmute them to get cases. So far I've made $20 profit and that's only from the items that have been bought so far.

[QUOTE=Kreepis;51246415]what does "-snip-" even mean?[/QUOTE] They deleted the post. Anyways, as for the transmutes, the crates are not common. I just did a bunch and just ended up with spellbook pages and 2013 items. Don't go in expecting a bunch of crates.
I expected very little from this year's halloween. They actually managed to make me sad regardless. Atleast last year you could actually [B]RECEIVE AND COMPLETE CONTRACTS[/B]. This feels like a really bad omen for the christmas update, if they even bother to do one this year.

I did like 12 transmutes with my untradable stuff and didn't get any cases, well atleast I got some better halloween hats
I did some transmutes last night and actually managed to get a case, however it wasn't tradable or marketable, but the stuff you can unbox from it is.

Have all the scouts together, all the soldiers together, ect. Think it'd make it look more pleasant and organized, but also help better understand what you have to work with as well.
I've just got a tradeable case by transmuting 3 description tags. It was a weird transmute, it gave me 4 items from a single transmute, case was the last one. I've got another one by transmuting halloween items, but it was untradeable. I guess since halloween items have untradeable tag, they just transfer that tag to transmuted item. HOWEVER for me chances of getting case drop were really small. I've sold that case and bought bunch of description tags and didnt got another drop. So it's not really worth it at all.

EDIT: Just got my second case, I think Valve noticed since this one isn't marketable now :K
