Best Shanghai Major Sticker Crafts

Stickers are cosmetic items available in Counter-Strike to add on to one’s weapons for an extra layer of personalization. Just like in previous Majors, the Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024 brought out the much-anticipated sticker capsules for all the players and teams that qualified for the event. 50% of the total sticker money from the team or autograph capsules that Valve released will be given to the respective organizations, which is an additional incentive for even just reaching the Major. Especially for qualified teams making an appearance in the grandest CS2 tournament for the first time, the sticker capsules are always a great way to immortalize one’s self in the game. Sticker sales in-game typically get a 75% discount weeks after the Major’s conclusion, which will certainly drive the prices down a lot when that happens. In this article, we will dive into a few of the best crafts you can do with the brand new Shanghai Major stickers from the recent Perfect World major.

FlyQuest Full Logo Craft

Starting off the list is FlyQuest’s team logo sticker, available through the Shanghai 2024 Contenders Sticker Capsule. Their current logo is a Q with an outline that also resembles a leaf. This is a perfect match for skins with a green or jungle-themed design. Boreal Forest or any of the green-hued camouflage skin families will no doubt look good on even the paper variant of the FlyQuest team sticker. More specific skins where this craft will shine are on the AK-47 Aquamarine Revenge or the AK-47 Wild Lotus.

Perfect World Logo Sticker on Printstream Skins

Admittedly, the sticker sales for the Major’s logo are one of the lowest each and every single time. The reason for this is simply because there is little connection that fans feel towards it compared to that of their favorite player or team. Still, the Holographic version of the Perfect World Shanghai Major sticker fits exceptionally well on the Printstream skin line due to its refractor-like holographic pattern that fits perfectly with the aesthetic of the Printstream. Be it for the Desert Eagle, the M4A1-S, or the USP-S, the Perfect World Holo sticker both stands out and seamlessly blends in with the design.

Spirit Champion Stickers on Gold/Royal-Themed Skins

As the champions of the Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024, Spirit received one-of-a-kind Major stickers designed with a gold font, team logo, and red trim circling the autograph itself. These are exclusive only to the players of Spirit having won the title, and it just so happens that each one of them has a creative take on their sticker design for the Shanghai Major. These stickers go well with gold-colored skins such as the M4A4 The Coalition and Buzz Kill. It could also work well with the AWP Man o’ War and on a clean, blank slate such as the AK-47 Slate.

3DMAX Stickers on Redline Skins

The Redline skin family in CS, which is only limited to the AK-47 and AWP, is one of the simplest in design yet most versatile when customization is considered. A tried-and-tested combination is any red sticker, particularly a team’s logo, spread across the entire weapon. With Astralis failing to qualify for the Shanghai Major, 3DMAX delivers that much-desired red team logo, which fits perfectly with the Redline. Either using its standard paper version or the flashier holographic version will do just fine and look incredible on any Redline skin. If you happen to be a fan of the team’s players, then their respective autograph stickers can be used instead of just the 3DMAX logo should you wish for a little more design on your weapon. It has also been nine years since the last time 3DMAX found themselves on a Major sticker, with the Shanghai Major being their first Major attended since ESL One Katowice 2015.

Honorable Mention: Full Snax Autograph Craft

Janusz “Snax” Pogorzelski is an icon of Counter-Strike and a pioneer of the esports scene during Global Offensive’s early days. A former Major winner and tenured veteran, Snax definitely has a massive set of fans all around the world especially within Europe. Prior to 2024, his most recent Major autograph stickers came from the 2018 London Major. When GamerLegion reached the Challengers Stage of the 2024 PGL Major Copenhagen, it marked the first Major stickers for the Polish icon in over six years featuring his classic design. For the Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024, however, he redesigned his autograph to feature an apple in place of the letter “a” in his gamertag, a throwback to an iconic caster call and clutch from ESL One New York 2016. For those who value the sentimental part of having a player’s stickers more than its monetary equivalent or hype, having a full craft of one of the very best figures in the entire CS2 community is not a bad way to go.
