The world of stickers in *Counter-Strike 2* is more than just skin decoration—it's an entire subculture built around collecting, investing, and nostalgia. Rare stickers from the first major CS:GO tournaments, such as Katowice 2014, hold a special place in this ecosystem. Over time, they have become not only sought-after collector's items but also valuable assets, with prices reaching tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Why Do Stickers Become Expensive?
The main factor driving up prices is scarcity. Once sticker capsules are removed from the store and stop dropping, their supply becomes strictly limited. The most valuable stickers are those that will never return. Over time, they become even rarer as they’re applied to skins, lost, or stored in inventories.
Other factors affecting value:
Historical significance of the tournament;
Team logo — especially if the team disbanded or became iconic;
Rarity type — Holo and Foil versions are more expensive;
Design and compatibility with popular skins;
Team’s legacy at the time of the sticker’s release.
Katowice 2014: A CS Legend
ESL One Katowice 2014 was the second CS:GO Major. Back then, few understood the value of stickers, so they were rarely bought. Today, these stickers are the rarest and most expensive.
Collectors love them for:
✔ Ultra-limited supply;
✔ Connection to a historic tournament;
✔ Legendary teams and players;
✔ Unique designs and holographics.
