We have already mentioned how the release of Counter-Strike 2 may affect the cost of skins due to the fact that many of them look better on the new engine. However, the changes affected not only weapon design options. Stickers are no exception, especially those whose design uses unusual effects. Here are a few categories of stickers that will look more impressive in CS2 – which means it’s worth looking into the Lis-Skins.com catalog to purchase them now.
Holographic stickers
The transition to the new engine will most noticeably affect holographic stickers. The iridescent holographic surface will be even more noticeable thanks to the new lighting system, and the colors will appear brighter. Skins in which the holographic effect affects a large surface will especially benefit, for example, Noble (Holo). Interestingly, some stickers in this category have had their prices slightly reduced since the upcoming release of CS2 was announced, so they may turn out to be a good deal purchase.
Famous rarities
DreamHack 2014 Holo and Katowice 2015 Holo series stickers often attract the attention of collectors, although they are not as famous as the rarities from Katowice 2014, the purchase of which can cost a large amount of money. Among the stickers from the competitions mentioned above, you can find some notable options. Both sets contain a lot of stickers with expressive holographic effects, so it is not surprising that after the news about CS2 their prices are gradually increasing.
Paris 2023 Glitter
Not only collections of stickers from past competitions are of interest to collectors, but also sets that have appeared more recently. Stickers with glitter effect from the major Paris 2023 – one of these categories. Unlike holographic ones, in which the visual effect affects only part of the surface, glitter covers the entire sticker and looks great on solid-color stickers, for example, such as Fnatic (Glitter).
Atlanta 2017 Foil
Glitter stickers and gold stickers did not appear on the majors right away. However, even earlier, in order to diversify their appearance, Valve added another type of stickers – relief designs with metal effect. Like skins with a metallic surface and engraving, these stickers benefit from the new lighting system. This is especially noticeable on the foil stickers from the set Atlanta 2017 due to the fact that the team symbols are located on a bright and large background image. It’s not surprising that the cost of these stickers is gradually increasing.
