The 5 best stickers to buy in CS:GO

Your weapon deserves the best.

Being good at CS:GO is one thing but owning every match you play in style is another. In addition to working their way up CS: GO’s ranking system, most players also try to add as many skins as possible to their collection.

Though most skins come in different rarities to make them all unique, you can always further customize your weapons with the help of stickers. With countless events and content patches in the books for the game, there are a lot of stickers on the market, making it difficult for players to choose which one they should slap on their favorite weapons.

Some stickers will focus on looks and feature cool designs, while others may serve as souvenirs. Combining tournament stickers with your favorite teams can serve as a decent memorial of their performance in the event.

How to buy stickers in CS:GO

Like all in-game cosmetics in CS:GO, stickers can be purchased off Steam’s community market or in-game offers.

If you don’t have enough funds in your Steam Wallet to use the community market, you can either sell some of the items that you don’t use or top up your wallet with a credit card.

Can you remove a sticker in CS:GO?

Yes, stickers can be removed via the scraping feature. To scrape a sticker, players will need to left-click on the weapon in their CS:GO inventory and click on “Scrape Sticker.” After that, you’ll just need to pick the sticker that you’d like to scrape.

Once a sticker gets scraped enough, players will see the “Remove Sticker” option, which can be used to completely remove a sticker.

Can you move a sticker in CS:GO?

No, stickers can’t be moved after being applied in CS:GO. You’ll have the option to scrape and remove a sticker, however, and you can replace it with a new one after removing it.

Players can purchase the Global Elite (Foil) on the Steam community market for around $10.5 and $14.

You can always banter with your team via the in-game chat, but there are more ways to communicate with your teammates.
