Counter-Strike 2 has a plethora of customization options. One of them is sticker placement on skins. This is a very simple way to make your weapon unique or show that you’re a fan of a particular team. The real flair comes from using old and prestigious stickers, such as those from the Katowice 2014 Major. The problem is that they cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars. The good news is that now the CS.MONEY Blog will tell you what you can use as alternatives to the Kato14 stickers in your crafts.
By the way, our Battle Pass event is entering its most important phase! Join the massive raffle and win cool skins. We’ve hidden a code in this text to bring you closer to your coveted reward.
What makes Kato14 stickers special?
The Katowice 2014 stickers have several unique features. For example, these were the first stickers with team logos that could be bought or sold. Or, Katowice 2014 stickers have no background — just the team logo and the tournament name. It’s precisely because of this “clean” design that these stickers earned respect in the community.
However, there are very few Katowice 2014 stickers, and in some cases, there are only dozens. So, what should those who want to craft with a vintage touch do? Let’s explore a few options.
Use stickers from the first Majors
The first option is to use stickers from the early Majors, such as Katowice 2015. They also have a very minimalist design that looks great in crafts. The price of these stickers is high, but still much lower than the price of similar stickers from earlier Valve tournaments.
Use stickers from the Paris Major
Второй вариант – взять стикеры последних мэйджоров, особенно стикеры из турнира в Париже. У этого подхода есть три преимущества:
- Stickers from BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 cost just a few cents. Even relatively popular stickers, such as the Natus Vincere (Holo) Paris 2023, are under two dollars each.
- Stickers from the recent Majors have a very “clean” look. They are made with the formula “team logo plus tournament logo.” This makes them look great.
- Finally, BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 stickers wear out well. With an average level of wear, the tournament logo disappears, leaving only the team logo. Maximum “cleanliness.”
The main downside, of course, is the origin of these stickers. Stickers from the first Majors are relics, status items, and crafts with them are a true flex. Stickers from the most recent Majors don’t have that status, but they do have a beautiful appearance. Which is more important? It’s up to you to decide.
The Battle Pass code for today is not in the usual form. The cipher is simple, consisting of numbers and Latin letters. There should be eight characters in total. Good luck and the code looks like this:
-.... -.- .- -.. .- .---- ..--- ...- Buy ready-made crafts
The last option is to buy ready-made crafts on CS.MONEY. Our Market regularly features skins with rare stickers on them. These combos not only allow you to acquire real rare stickers but also save a significant amount of money. For example, for $400, you can buy an AK-47 Redline Minimal Wear with three Kato14 stickers, each of which costs no less than $400! You can also buy the rare stickers themselves, such as the legendary iBUYPOWER (Holo) Katowice 2014.
Crafts with Kato14 stickers are real artefacts. Those who don’t understand skins will appreciate their clean look and beauty. Those who know the value of the stickers will appreciate not only the appearance but also the status of the craft. Owning such an item is definitely a good idea.
