On May 4, 2022, Valve released new CS:GO stickers in honor of the participating teams at the Majors held in Antwerp, Belgium. This is the latest official sticker collection released as of this writing.
The May release had two features. First, the developers decided not to limit themselves to only the teams that reached the playoff stage, but made stickers for all 24 teams. Secondly, for the first time in the history of the game, glitter or Glitter was used to design stickers. The old design styles have not been forgotten. New stickers CS:GO 2022, released for the Antwerp major, were made in the already familiar variants:
Gold (characteristic feature – glare appears when examining the weapon).
Normal.
Holographic (the sticker changes color when examining the gun).
Why do you need stickers?
Players purchase stickers, pursuing one of three main goals: decorating their arsenal fashionable thing for fun or for show, collecting, investing in stickers in order to earn (investment).
Based on their goal, gamers evaluate the new stickers CS:GO and choose the right
one
.
Therefore, those who want to customize their weapons and show off them in front of friends, will look, first of all, at the popularity of this or that sticker and the possibilities of their budget. Investors evaluate the commercial potential of a sticker, i.e. its rarity, quality, association with major tournaments or top players, to see if, when and by how much it will increase in value. As for collectors, they are often not that concerned about exactly the best CS:GO 2022 stickers. For them it is much more important to collect all the stickers dedicated to a particular player or event in the world of Counter Strike, and it does not matter when was this event and whether the gamer went inactive or continues to actively perform.
Expensive and cheap stickers from Antwerp MajorThe most
expensive new sticker CS:GO 2022 was the autograph m0NESY (Ilya Osipov) from the team G2 Esports, made in gold style (10,377 rubles).
It is clear that m0NESY is now being closely watched, as analysts consider him to be the most promising young player. The CS:GO crowd apparently thinks the same way, so they are buying up his autographs faster in the hope that they will increase in value even more.
As for the professional players from the CIS territory who participated in the major in Antwerp, the following stickers are highly quoted:
Simpl's (Alexander Kostylev) gold autograph from Navi, which is currently valued at around 3, ,850 rubles.
The golden autograph of Jame (Jamie Ali) from the Outsiders team (as Virtus Pro is now called) valued at 2 116 rubles.
Golden autograph of b1t (Valery Vakhovsky) from Natus Vincere with a price tag of 1 116 rubles.
On the opposite end of the price scale are new CS:GO stickers from the Antwerp Major, made in the style of «glitter» and belonging to such players as bLitz (Byambasuren Garidmagnai from IHC), Magisk (Emil Reif from Team Vitality) and apEX (Dan Madeskler from Team Vitality). Their autographs cost only 58 kopecks.
Where to invest?
We will only talk about the new CS:GO 2022 stickers that were released by the developers of Counter Strike for the Antwerp major. Let's see if they are worth investing in.
Before the last major there was a unique situation, which in the world of CS GO has not been for a long time. Russian teams Gambit (was supposed to play at the major as Players), which later moved under the banners of Cloud9, and Outsiders (Virtus Pro) were not allowed to compete under their original brand name due to the well-known Ukrainian events. But Valve released special new CS:GO stickers for them on major.
I am now reminded of how IBUYPOWER was banned at Katowice 2014, and now their sticker is among the most expensive. Basically the same ban happened to Gambit and Outsiders, only on a political basis. Perhaps if teams hightail it on something in the future or win a major tournament, their Antwerp stickers could skyrocket in value in a moment. Gambit, who is now Cloud9, is definitely capable of that. So without fanaticism and at a low price you can buy 1-2 new CS GO stickers for these teams, released under the major in Antwerp, but it is definitely a risky investment for the long term.
The most expensive stickers in 2022
I can tell you absolutely sure: among the new CS GO
stickers
there will not be any that will be sold at crazy prices in the near future. The market is stable in this respect, and stickers from the Katowice 2014 tournament are still at the top of the price list.The reason for this high price is very simple: Katowice 2014 was the first major competition for which official Walwow stickers were produced. In addition, the competition was remembered by the CS:GO community scandals associated with IBUYPOWER (surrendered the match in the finals) and Titan (one of the players was caught cheating).
Although the hype on the events of 2014 has long passed, but prices continue to hold at a high level and, apparently, do not think to go down. An IBUYPOWER sticker from those days cost $60 ,000 and a Titan sticker – 51 $935. The best CS GO 2022 stickers can only dream of such a price tag for now.
