What are CS2 Holo Stickers
In CS2, stickers are cosmetic items that can be applied to weapon skins to improve their appearance. The sticker system has been updated relatively recently. You can read about the changes in the article All About Stickers in CS2 (New Sticker System).
Holographic stickers are a special kind of stickers. One that has an iridescent effect that gives them a shiny, color-changing look. These stickers look different depending on the angle from which you view them.

The yellow-orange base color is standard in Counter-Strike, and maps like Dust 2, Mirage, and Anubis have a sandy base tone. This is likely why this sticker is less expensive than many others dedicated to esports events and teams.
Stickers that relate to Katowice 2014 in general have great popularity and are often used as an investment.

Top-3 Most Expensive Holo Stickers
iBUYPOWER (Holo) | Katowice 2014
- Release Date: March 6, 2014
- Rarity: Remarkable
- Containers: EMS Katowice 2014 Legends
Most of the stickers from the first Major on CS 2 are expensive, with few exceptions. Still, the first Major is the first Major, no matter how you look at it.
The organization iBUYPOWER long ago broke up, no longer signed players, and became famous for scandalous contract terms with players. So stickers with them are scarce, which raises the price. The cost of this sticker was as high as $88,000.
Titan (Holo) | Katowice 2014
- Release Date: March 6, 2014
- Rarity: Remarkable
- Containers: EMS Katowice 2014 Legends
The sticker features the team logo in deep blue surrounded by a blue background with a sprayed effect. Even despite the crazy price tag, we have to admit that the sticker looks great and obviously can’t be sold for cheap.
The regular sticker is a more budget version of the sticker (if it can be called budget at all). It looks less cool because the logo and the team name are in white, and everything else is the same as on the holographic sticker. The approximate price for which you can buy a sticker is around $75,000.
Reason Gaming (Holo) | Katowice 2014
- Release Date: March 6, 2014
- Rarity: Remarkable
- Containers: EMS Katowice 2014 Legends
At first glance, the sticker resembles the Apple logo in some way, particularly the characteristic overbite on the background square. The color inside the square follows a gradient from acid green to deep orange.
This project was shut down in the fall of 2017, with the last player being fired on September 24, 2017. Therefore, there have been no new stickers with the team for a long time, and there won’t be anymore. If a sticker appeals to you, catch it on the trade sites or search through gamer chats. Its price is in the neighborhood of 70-80 thousand dollars.
