Why do you need Steam Summer Sale stickers? What are stickers for on Steam? What if I don't complete a task on Steam?

Good day, dear readers! Today I want to talk about stickers in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, because they also form a significant part of the design and customization of the game. You can start with the fact that cs go stickers, they are cs go stickers, were added to the game during the global update on 02/02/2014.

Sticker(from English) - a sticker, that’s right, these are really stickers that you can stick on your skins or stock weapons. By playing the game you will receive capsules with stickers.

These capsules contain one sticker. The capsules themselves can be opened with a special key, the price of which is $0.99.
After some time, an update was released in which you can create your own stickers and decals yourself. We will briefly look at this process below...

How to create your own sticker in cs go?

To create a full-fledged sticker we will need some programs:

Adobe Photoshop- to create a sticker.
VTFedit— to create VTF textures.
CS:GO SDK— for testing and publication in the workshop.

Next you need to choose the quality of the sticker, of which there are 5 varieties. For the most beautiful view in the game, use the quality: 1024x1024 or 2048x2048. During the creation process, you will need to convert the file several times from different types, use scripts, you can create a separate article on this subject. You can create all kinds of stickers: regular, holographic and foil.

For each, the scripts and creation process are different.

One important note: Since the game has stickers of different qualities, Valve asks you to upload 2-3 types of your sticker, that is, for example: glossy and holographic, paper-based and foil, etc. To fill several types at once, check the boxes. VMT 1, VMT 2, VMT 3 and so on, respectively, each VMT owns one type of your sticker. Once you have uploaded all the files, click Publish, and that’s it: your sticker is in the workshop.

Secrets of CS GO stickers

CS:GO stickers have their own secrets, which many players already know, but newcomers don’t know about.

Welcome to the Clutch

If you erase the “Welcome to the Clutch” sticker to the last layer, then the inscription “Welcome to Hell” will appear in front of you, and the rainbow will turn into terrifying skulls
T-Rekt

By doing the same steps, but with this sticker, you will be able to see the inscription “T-Rekt”.
Queen of Pain

The “Queen of Pain” sticker contains the colorful inscription: “You, Suffer Fool ¦” (Suffer, fool ¦)
Knife Club

This sticker hides the inscription “Do not talk about knife club!!!” (Don't talk about the knife club!!!) This expression is very similar to "Fight Club", the first rule of which is: "Don't tell anyone about the fight club."
CS ON THE MIND

The very last layer of this sticker contains the inscription: "CS".
Don't Worry, I'm Pro

Don't Worry I'm Pro cs go sticker

When you erase this sticker, a barely noticeable smiley appears =)

Features of CS:GO stickers

Any sticker can be applied to any weapon. In this case, you can apply several stickers to one weapon. Stickers can be of different types of rarity.

There are regular stickers, holographic and foil stickers, respectively:

ordinary- the most frequent;
holographic- less common;
foil stickers- the rarest.

Stickers have the ability to remove them when you remove them - they are lost forever and then you will never get them back. Stickers have up to four different locations on weapons. Please understand that you can have a maximum of four stickers on one weapon at a time. How many stickers you can put on a weapon depends on the weapon itself. There is one unpleasant minus: Stickers cannot be applied to knives.

If you exchange a weapon with a sticker, the sticker remains on the weapon, and the sticker cannot be returned. Sticker capsules, as well as the stickers themselves, can be sold on the Steam Community Market.

There is also very important information for those who like to bet: once you bet a weapon with a sticker and your bet wins, this does not imply that your weapon will be returned to you with your own sticker, the sticker may disappear, or it may be replaced. You can scrape off the sticker - it will become more frayed and then disappear altogether. Some “fading” stickers appear in a new light.

Top 5 most expensive stickers in cs go 2018:

This list includes team stickers that were released to EMS One Katowice 2014. Their cost is so high because they are extremely rare.

1. Sticker | iBUYPOWER (holographic) | Katowice 2014

The rarest sticker in CS:GO is the United States iBUYPOWER team sticker, which depicts an animal with an open mouth. As of December 2015, this sticker cannot be found on the public market. Its estimated cost starts from 500 dollars. I think a lot of regular players remember the scandal associated with this team.

2. Sticker | Titan (holographic) | Katowice 2014

When it appeared in 2014, this sticker immediately became popular among players due to its monotony. It looked simply brilliant on a weapon, which caused a stir, and all freely available copies were immediately bought up. The demand for this sticker caused a large increase in its price, and now it costs from 500 dollars.

3. Sticker | Natus Vincere (holographic) | Katowice 2014

Another rare specimen. According to the Trading Platform, you can find only four such stickers for free sale. Cost starts from $334. The price is due to the fact that this is a high quality holographic sticker from a rare set from 2014. In addition, true fans of Ukraine Natus Vincere have long ago bought all such stickers, and there are very few of them left for free sale.

4. Sticker | LGB eSports (holographic) | Katowice 2014

The demand for this sticker on Steam is very high! Now almost 10,000 people want to buy it. On sale you can find only 4 copies at a price from $192. Such a high demand is explained by the fact that, according to forecasts, the Norway LGB eSports team will not soon get into Valve tournaments and will not receive a new sticker.

5. Sticker | 3DMAX (holographic) | Katowice 2014

The France 3DMAX team was disbanded eight months ago. After this, it was announced that the organization would cease to exist. Since then, the cost of this team's sticker has increased 25 times! Now the sticker can be purchased on the trading platform for the price from 115 dollars, There are only three copies available. You can also try to get this sticker yourself by purchasing the “EMS Katowice Legends 2014” capsule for $175.

There are a few more, but I think five will be enough.

Autograph stickers

The game has one “division” of stickers - autograph stickers. Patch 1.34.9.6 gave us the opportunity to become the exclusive owner of stickers with autographs of our favorite players and teams. This innovation was timed to coincide with the upcoming CS:GO tournaments! 50% of the sticker price will be received by the players themselves (or the organization), so ordinary players have an excellent opportunity to support their favorite teams not only morally, but also financially.

Every day there are more and more stickers in the game. Each player is able to create his own personal or entire set and collection of stickers. Stickers are currently a big part of the economic side of the game, which continues to evolve. There is another aspect to CS:GO stickers. Many PRO teams, websites and fan clubs release their own stickers not only in the game, but also in reality. There are already online sticker stores. Soon our site will have its own stickers for sale, don’t miss the opportunity to purchase!

That's all the average Counter-strike player needs to know about stickers. There will be many new articles on various topics soon, check back often. Have a good day!

After addition in 2014, CS:GO stickers became another element of customization in the game. Of course, they don't add a huge amount of value to the skins, although some stickers are extremely expensive. Let's start with what stickers are, how to apply them, where you can get them from, and what they do.

A sticker, or sticker, as it is often called in CS:GO, is a special item that is applied to a weapon to decorate it. Basically, up to 4 stickers can be applied to a specific model. It’s worth clarifying right away that when you transfer a skin with stickers in the form of a bet on matches or any other similar services, you will not receive it back in the same condition. In such cases, you will be given the same skin, but without stickers, so you should always be as careful as possible before making an exchange.

Why do we need stickers and how to get them

In CS:GO, stickers are one of the customization items; they do not provide any bonuses other than cosmetic variety. In fact, stickers are purely an element of prestige, which allows you to stand out from other players and make your skins even more unique. Some stickers are especially expensive, so this will make the weapons in CS:GO more expensive. Each weapon has its own places for gluing stickers, so you can see all the available slots already in the process of applying drawings.

You can get stickers from simple capsules; they, like cases, can drop out after completing a match. They can also be purchased on the Steam Market. To open you need a key, which is also sold on the market. The cost of capsules and keys to them is much less than the price of cases in CS:GO, so you don’t have to spend large sums to get stickers. The drop of a sticker from a capsule is determined randomly, so you cannot predict which sticker you will receive as a result.

Any player can remove stickers by simply removing them and clearing a specific skin. However, the sticker will be lost when removed, so this must be taken into account. It will be impossible to return it after this procedure. To avoid making mistakes, always try to check the value of the stickers you receive. They can be sold on the Steam Market, although this is not entirely advisable in cases where the sticker itself is cheaper than the key.

What determines the rarity of stickers in CS GO

Let's consider what can determine the total cost of stickers, excluding the rarest ones. Quality is usually determined by the type of sticker, although there are exceptions. As a rule, these include stickers of teams that were produced in limited quantities, or stickers that can no longer be obtained in the game. Rarity also determines the overall value of stickers. Typically, the following types of stickers are distinguished:

Common (the simplest and least valuable);
Holographic (quite valuable and rare);
Foil stickers (usually the most expensive and rare).

Typically, the value of a sticker is determined by its quality, although there are exceptions to the rule. Typically, rarer stickers are always valued much higher than those that can be easily obtained by every player. Also an important criterion is the release time, because the cost of some stickers may increase over the years.

The rarest stickers in CS:GO

Let's look at the top stickers in CS:GO, as well as the reasons for their enormous cost and popularity.

Sticker | iBUYPOWER (holographic) | Katowice 2014

The rarest sticker in CS:GO is the team sticker iBUYPOWER, which depicts a beast with an open mouth. As of December 2015, this sticker cannot be found on the public market. Its estimated cost starts from $500. Such a high price is due to several reasons. CS:GO fans should remember that at one time the iBUYPOWER team was banned by Valve due to a scandal related to betting. Therefore, stickers with the symbols of this group stopped falling out in September 2014, which made this sticker a very rare copy
