Sticker | Winding Scorch

The Sticker | Winding Scorch is a High Grade sticker from the Elemental Craft Sticker Pack. The design is one, but it comes in two finishes: this regular paper one, and a pricier foil one with a cold color scheme.

What the Sticker | Winding Scorch looks like

It shows a single tongue of fire stretched along a diagonal. At the lower left sits a dense, round "head" of flame, and a long curved tail runs up and to the right, with small sparks and scraps flying around it.

The colors are warm and dense: a red outline, an orange middle, and a yellow core. There is no background, so on dark weapons the fire glows, while on a light camo the red outline is the only anchor for the eye.

This is the regular finish: paper, a matte surface, no shimmer. The same design also exists in a foil version, where the fire is recolored in blue-violet tones.

Where the Sticker | Winding Scorch came from

The Winding Scorch arrived on October 2, 2024, with The Armory update, as part of the Elemental Craft Sticker Pack. The pack's theme is the elements: fire, water, lightning, and explosion.

It was never in capsules. The pack was bought with Armory credits, which is why it has no tournament, no team, and no streamer-author behind the artwork.

The pack left the Armory on July 8, 2026. New copies stopped being issued, and the supply is fixed at what has already been released.

How the sticker works

The sticker can go on any firearm, and there are five slots for it. The player chooses position and rotation freely, so the flame's tail can be stretched along the receiver or left by the grip.

Knives and gloves have no sticker slots. Sticker wear is set by hand and cannot be undone: scratches can be added but not removed, and on the final step the sticker disappears from the weapon.

Stickers have no float and no wear tiers. The weapon's wear and the sticker's scratching are unrelated, and the category has no StatTrak, no Souvenir versions, and no trade-up contract.

What the Sticker | Winding Scorch costs

Within the pack this is the middle of the list: by price the sticker stands at seventeenth place of twenty-six, and twelve more stickers cost the same. The exact number is nominal here. It marks a price shelf, not a single place.

The main benchmark is the foil version of the same design. It costs about five times as much as the regular one and ranks in the pack's top five. The finish creates the gap, not the subject.

The regular Winding Scorch is the cheaper of the two finishes. The sticker gives no gameplay advantage in CS2, so buyers pay for the look and for a place in a collection.

Who it suits

• you want a warm fire accent on a dark weapon at the lower price of the two finishes;


• you are collecting the Elemental Craft pack and need fire next to water and lightning;


• you want to try the design on a weapon before deciding on the foil version;


• you want a sticker from a closed pack that is no longer topped up.
