MirageMain: Create comprehensive economy guide

The '''economy''' system in Counter-Strike 2 determines how much money players earn and spend each round. Managing economy is a core strategic element.

== Basics ==
* Starting money: '''$800'''
* Maximum money: '''$16,000'''
* Money resets at halftime (after round 12)

== Round Win Rewards ==
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Condition !! Reward
|-
| Elimination win || $3,250
|-
| Bomb explosion (T) || $3,500
|-
| Bomb defuse (CT) || $3,500
|-
| Time expired (CT) || $3,250
|}

== Loss Bonus ==
Losing consecutive rounds increases the loss bonus:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Consecutive Losses !! Bonus
|-
| 1 || $1,400
|-
| 2 || $1,900
|-
| 3 || $2,400
|-
| 4 || $2,900
|-
| 5+ || $3,400
|}

Winning a round resets the loss streak to 0.

== Kill Rewards ==
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Weapon Type !! Kill Reward
|-
| Knife || $1,500
|-
| SMGs (except P90) || $600
|-
| Shotguns || $900
|-
| Pistols || $300
|-
| Rifles || $300
|-
| Sniper Rifles || $300
|-
| AWP || $100
|-
| Machine Guns || $300
|}

== Objective Bonuses ==
* Bomb plant: +$300 (individual T who planted)
* Bomb defuse: +$300 (individual CT who defused)
* Teammates get $50 per teammate kill (July 2025 update)

== Typical Buy Costs ==
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Buy Type !! T Cost !! CT Cost
|-
| Full Buy || ~$4,550 || ~$5,350
|-
| Force Buy || ~$2,500-3,500 || ~$2,500-3,500
|-
| Eco || $0-300 || $0-300
|}

== Buy Round Types ==
* '''Full Buy''' — Rifle + armor + utility. Team should have $4,000+ to full buy.
* '''Force Buy''' — Spend everything on the best possible loadout. Risky but can break opponent economy.
* '''Eco''' — Save money by buying little or nothing. Win with pistols or pick up enemy weapons.
* '''Half Buy''' — Spend some money (SMGs, armor) while building economy for next round.

}}

The '''AK-47''' is the signature Terrorist rifle and one of the most iconic weapons in FPS history. It is the only rifle that can one-shot headshot a helmeted enemy.

== Overview ==
The AK-47 is a fully automatic assault rifle dealing 36 base damage. Its defining characteristic is the ability to kill with a single headshot against helmeted opponents, making it the most lethal rifle in the game for skilled aimers.

== Spray Pattern ==
The AK-47's spray pattern pulls sharply upward for the first 10 bullets, then sways left and right. Mastering this pattern is essential for competitive play.

== Strategy ==
* Tap or burst fire at long range for headshots
* Learn the full 30-round spray pattern for close engagements
* First bullet accuracy is excellent when standing still
* The most cost-effective rifle in the game at $2,700
* CTs will often pick up dropped AK-47s due to its one-tap potential
