Sticker | Mastermind (Holo)

The Sticker | Mastermind (Holo) is a Remarkable sticker from the Shattered Web Sticker Collection. Its artwork shows a colorful spider, and the holographic finish raises its price noticeably.

What the Sticker | Mastermind looks like

The picture shows a dark spider with red eyes, each ringed in a light circle. In the middle sits one more eye with a green pupil. The legs are long and sharp, blue and black.

The spider sits on a colorful web shield made of segments: red, pink, orange, green, purple and blue. The outline is dark, so the artwork reads as a whole on both light and dark weapons.

The holographic version shimmers: the shield changes color as it turns, while the eyes and legs stay dark. The regular version has flat, matte colors.

The design is symmetrical and dense, so it holds up even at a small size. The spider keeps its shape on a small sticker in the corner of the receiver and on a large one on the stock.

The finish changes the impression: the regular version looks like a flat drawing, while the holographic one adds depth through the shimmer in the segments of the shield.

Where the Sticker | Mastermind came from

The sticker belongs to the Shattered Web Sticker Collection. That collection is not tied to a tournament: it is a themed set.

This artwork has no team capsules, no Majors and no seeding tiers, because the sticker is tied to no team and no tournament.

How the sticker works

One weapon holds five stickers, and the Mastermind can be any one of them. Position and rotation are set freely, with no fixed placements.

A knife takes no sticker, and neither do gloves: they have no slots.

The artwork can be scraped away partly. But the steps cannot be undone, and the final scrape sends the sticker out of existence.

A sticker's wear is tracked separately and does not touch the weapon's float. Stickers have no StatTrak™ or Souvenir version, and they cannot go into a trade-up contract.

What the Sticker | Mastermind costs

The hologram clearly raises the price of this artwork: the holographic version costs about three times the regular paper one, which is the cheapest.

In a set of nine stickers, this one is second by price. Only one position stands above it, and the other seven are cheaper.

You can buy the sticker for CS2 for the sake of the colorful spider and its shimmer. It gives no gameplay advantage.
