This January 2026 CS2 update included an adjustment to Molotov and incendiary behavior when a grenade bounces off an enemy player. The original notes describe a delayed fuse that prevents premature mid-air detonation after that contact.

Knife draw sounds were also adjusted, alongside stability and dynamic-entity display fixes. I liked the new sound, although reactions will differ.
A sound change alone does not predict a knife skin’s market price. This post records the patch discussed at the original publication date.
