Wow, the invasion update is over already? I thought the blog said it was going to go until the end of the year, which I assumed meant December 31st.

I think it's that crates drop till the end of the year, and I assume keys are in the store for as long.

Probably end up like the EOTL crates - after the event "ends" they'll become a rare drop.

It would seem weird to stop selling the keys. Because while there are still crates left in the system, someone might want to open them. Also the tail off in keys is a lot of money. Both for Valve and for the creators.

Valve can just remove keys from the store and make the crates "expired" like the previous winter crates.

Throwing away a ton of money in the process. Makes no sense

They haven't done that for any other community update, I don't think they'll do it for Invasion.
