Sticker | Bolt Strike

The Sticker | Bolt Strike is a High Grade sticker from the Elemental Craft Sticker Pack. It is a bundle of yellow lightning bolts drawn in a single outline.

What the Sticker | Bolt Strike looks like

The artwork is made of broken lines. Sharp zigzags meet in the center, wavy discharges stretch along the edges, and at the bottom the lines gather into a dense scatter of short flashes.

There is one color: saturated yellow on a transparent ground. There is no fill, so the weapon's paint shows through the sticker. On a dark body the outline glows, while on a light one, especially a yellow or white camo, it gets lost.

The standard finish is paper, and matte. The same artwork also has a Foil version, which adds a metallic shine over the same lines.

Because the fill is transparent, the design stays light. The sticker looks like an applied outline rather than a solid patch, and it does not cover the weapon details underneath.

Where the Sticker | Bolt Strike came from

The sticker belongs to the Elemental Craft Sticker Pack, which came out on October 2, 2024, with The Armory update. The set is devoted to the elements.

The Bolt Strike never appeared in capsules: the set's stickers were bought with Armory credits. On July 8, 2026, Valve removed the set from the Armory, so the supply is fixed.

How the sticker works

Up to five stickers can go on any firearm. The player sets the position and rotation, so the lightning is easy to turn along the barrel.

Stickers cannot go on knives or gloves. Scraping is added by hand and only in one direction: the earlier look cannot be restored, and at the final step the sticker disappears. The weapon's float stays as it was.

Stickers have no StatTrak, no Souvenir version and no trade-up.

Five slots also allow a composition: the lightning can lie diagonally, with a sticker of another design from this set added on top.

What the Sticker | Bolt Strike costs

The main price difference comes from the finish. The Foil Bolt Strike costs almost five times as much as the paper one, though the artwork is the same.

Among the set's stickers, the paper version sits in the lower group: twelve more stickers share its price mark. It is the most accessible variant of the design.

The price is held by the supply and the closed issue, not by any in-game benefit: in CS2 stickers give none. The Bolt Strike is worth buying for a yellow accent, not as an investment.

The choice between paper and Foil comes down to shine: the lines are the same.

Who it suits

• you want a thin outline design that lets the weapon's skin show through;


• you need a yellow lightning bolt without paying extra for foil;


• you are assembling an elemental craft with the fire and explosion stickers from this same set;


• before buying the Foil, you want to see how the paper variant looks.
