All CS2 Agents, ranked – Destructoid
In November 2019, Agents were introduced to Counter-Strike as part of the Operation Shattered Web update. These Agents are essentially character skins, which can be purchased from the Steam Community Market. Each brings its own unique aesthetic to the server, and much like Counter-Strike 2 weapon skins, offers a new way to customize your inventory.
Some hardcore players swear off the use of Agents. They can give a free competitive advantage to the opponent, as they make it easier to identify players. Still, they remain very popular among the Counter-Strike 2 community.
Counter-Strike 2 T-Side Agents Tier List
Agents are available on both the T and CT sides in Counter-Strike 2. There are 65 in total, with 35 terrorist and 30 counter-terrorist CS2 Agents, so there’s plenty to rank here.
We’re starting off with the T-side CS2 Agents. In my opinion, this is where the strongest designs are found. The price tags can reflect this, with some T-side Agents costing as much as $160 on the Steam Community Market.
These rankings are based purely on aesthetics. Counter-Strike 2 isn’t (and hopefully will never be) pay-to-win, so that’s the only real thing there is to rank these skins on.

Counter-Strike 2 CT-Side Agents Tier List
Moving on to Counter-Strike 2‘s CT-side Agents, we see fewer placings in the S and A Tiers. Again, these are based on looks, and many of the CT Agents in CS2 are just slight variations of one another. This means more Agents are placed in the B and C Tiers.
This doesn’t mean you should completely write off these agents. Appearance is subjective, right?
