CS2 Sticker Update: Individual placement and five stickers per weapon

With the first major CS2 update there have also been many changes to the stickers. The update has a major influence on how the future of stickers and crafts in CS2 will develop.

Five stickers can now be placed on each weapon. The biggest change, however, is that stickers can now be placed individually and are no longer tied to the predefined positions. Stickers can now be applied with pixel precision. This also means that stickers can be rotated before being applied.

To the new Features To make the best use of the sticker placement function, you can now zoom in on some weapons to determine their exact position.

What happens to the stickers that have already been applied?

The stickers you have already attached remain in the position where you originally attached them. In addition, you can now attach a fifth sticker to each weapon.

Is it possible to change the position of old stickers?

It is currently not possible to change the position of old stickers.

A tool with which the sticker position can be changed?

There is now a lot of speculation as to whether there will be a tool that can be used to change the position of old stickers. However, such a tool is currently uncertain. However, such a tool will probably not exist.

There is speculation as to whether there will be a tool with which you can only move stickers to predefined positions or a tool with which all sticker positions can be changed. However, we do not believe that there will be such a tool.

The impact on sticker prices

It is currently difficult to say how the update will affect sticker prices. The update and the expanded options for placing stickers could make many players more attentive to stickers. This could lead to an increase in sticker prices.

The two rarest and most expensive stickers Titan (Holo) | Katowice (2014) and iBUYPOWER (Holo) | Katowice (2014) will most likely increase in value. The reason for this is that there are some people who have a gun with four of these stickers on it and they now want to add a fifth sticker. Due to the fact that there is only a very small supply of these stickers and the demand will now increase, prices will probably skyrocket.

Can stickers overlap?

Yes, stickers can now also overlap.

This can result in very interesting sticker combinations if they are cleverly combined.

Can stickers still be scratched off?

Yes, stickers can still be used just like before can be removed by scraping. The stickers are still destroyed and there is no way to remove stickers from a weapon without destroying it.

Conclusion - The update that redefines crafting

Everyone agrees on one thing: the update has had a major impact on CS2 Crafts and has redefined them to a certain extent. With the significantly greater possibilities, new combinations and arrangements of stickers can be created that never existed before.

However, there are also critical voices who do not like the update as it degrades old crafts. In our opinion, we should look to the future and see the far greater possibilities for stickers as a positive.
