Counter-Strike 2 stickers can be divided into two major categories: regular stickers and tournament stickers. The latter are particularly exciting, as they include some of the rarest and most valuable stickers in the game’s history. Today, CS.MONEY Blog dives into everything you need to know about team stickers in CS2.
We remind you that stickers can be bought cheaply and easily on CS.MONEY! It is even better to do this with ready-made crafts using our filter system, since buying a skin with a team sticker will be cheaper than separately and assembling it yourself!
What Are Team Stickers in CS2?
In Counter-Strike 2, stickers can be obtained in several ways:
- By opening capsules.
- Purchasing them directly from the store.
- Through event-related drops, such as tournament stickers.
Tournament stickers are tied to Majors—Valve-sponsored tournaments in CS2—and each Major features a unique set of collectible stickers. There are several types of tournament stickers in CS2:
- Player autographs
- Team logos
- Tournament logos
Additionally, map logo stickers are tied to souvenir skins and cannot be obtained separately.
Recent Majors, including Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024, feature capsules containing only player autographs and team logo stickers. These stickers come in five distinct finishes:
- Paper
- Glitter
- Metallic
- Holo
- Gold
The rarest and most coveted stickers can be worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars. Their limited-time availability during Majors adds to their exclusivity and value.
How Do Stickers Work in CS2?
Stickers can be applied to skins or standard weapons—though we strongly recommend sticking to skins for maximum impact. Each skin can hold up to five stickers, and players can freely choose their placement.
A unique feature in CS2 is the ability to scratch stickers. Scratching alters their appearance:
- Some stickers reveal hidden messages or designs.
- For tournament stickers, however, there are no Easter eggs. Scratching these typically removes the background, leaving “clean” autographs or logos.
The Most Expensive Stickers in CS2
The most expensive stickers in CS2 come from ESL Katowice 2014 Major. These rare items are incredibly scarce, and many of the teams represented will never have their logos featured in the game again.
Top 5 most expensive CS2 stickers are:
- Titan (Holo) – Current price: $111,225
- iBUYPOWER (Holo) – Current price: $62,564
- Reason Gaming (Holo) – Current price: $38,928
- Vox Eminor (Holo) – Current price: $29,196
- Team Dignitas (Holo) – Current price: $26,794
For comparison, the most expensive regular sticker, Harp of War (Holo), costs around $2,000.
Are Tournament Stickers a Good Investment?
Looking at the top-tier sticker prices, you might wonder, “Are tournament stickers worth investing in?” The answer isn’t straightforward—it’s both yes and no.
While the limited availability of these stickers drives up their potential value, not all tournament stickers appreciate significantly over time. Like any investment, buying stickers comes with risks, and careful consideration is crucial. That said, most tournament stickers tend to retain or gradually increase in value.
