The Most Expensive Autographs from PGL Major Copenhagen
Before the start of the Elimination Stage, stickers and player autographs were finally added to the game. According to rumors and statements from community members, such a significant delay was due to the autographs. Players approached the creation of their autographs with great care and sought help from professionals. Valve didn’t approve a large number of signatures made by designers, as they were not satisfied with this approach. There is information that developers demanded players to draw their autographs themselves, and it should take no more than 5-10 seconds. The main idea was for the image on the sticker to match what a fan would get at an autograph session. Let’s take a look at the final result and consider the 5 most expensive stickers from pro players.
Sticker | donk (Gold) | Copenhagen 2024
The cost of a sticker, like any item on the market, is determined by the community itself. Often, the price of an autograph is influenced by the player’s popularity and the rarity of their sticker. Thus, the player with the most expensive sticker is Danil “donk” Kryshkovec. Currently, he is extremely popular in the community thanks to his bright performances and equally vibrant personality. At the age of 17, he became the champion of IEM Katowice 2024, received his first MVP medal, and made it to the Major playoffs.
The autograph itself doesn’t look particularly special, so its price is solely due to his persona. As a gesture of appreciation to his fans, Danil left a small heart, indicating his positive and friendly nature beyond the server. During the game, donk is hard to describe as a pleasant guy. What he does to opponents sometimes looks like bullying. The number 73 at the bottom of the sticker is an undisclosed reference that we’ll have to figure out on our own. As of March 23, 2024, the price of the gold sticker is approximately $317, with the highest sale reaching $443.
Sticker | z4KR (Gold) | Copenhagen 2024
For many, finding the autograph of player Lynn Vission in second place may cause confusion. In fact, everything is simple: Chinese players have not attended Major tournaments for a long time. The Chinese skin market is one of the most developed and wealthy. Skins from Counter-Strike in this region are loved more than the game itself, so they are willing to buy a sticker from one of the leading players even at an obvious overprice. The player managed to depict his nickname, written in Latin letters, in the form of Chinese characters. It is also possible that this aspect played a significant role in the popularity of this sticker among the Chinese community. As of March 23, 2024, z4KR’s autograph is selling for $200, with its peak value reaching $324.
Sticker | ZywOo (Gold) | Copenhagen 2024
The best player of 2024 according to HLTV, Frenchman ZywOo, traditionally has one of the most expensive and sought-after autographs in the game. Mathieu didn’t come up with anything new and presented Valve with the same sticker he had on previous Majors. The only unique feature of his autograph is reflected in his nickname, where the doubled “O” is written in the style of an emoticon from the early 2000s “o_O.” Currently, you’ll have to pay about $107 for a ZywOo sticker.
Sticker | FalleN (Gold) | Copenhagen 2024
The legend of Brazilian CS has always been a crowd favorite and has a huge fan base in his home country. This year, Brazilian teams made a real sensation and earned two extra slots for the American region at the next Major. The performance of Brazilian teams in Copenhagen sparked even greater interest in the tournament, and many will want to leave a memorable souvenir from this historic event. The choice of FalleN’s autograph is obvious and understandable, as this figure is of immense significance with a history beyond the current tournament in Denmark. The price for the gold version is $96.
Sticker | m0NESY (Gold) | Copenhagen 2024
Closing the top five most expensive stickers is Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov. He began to develop his popularity at the age of 14, from the days of NAVI Junior. For three years now, he has been playing in one of the strongest and most successful international mixes – G2. With his incredible gameplay, kind, and open character, m0NESY has earned the love of the community. It’s not surprising that many want to get a sticker with his nickname and are willing to pay $94 for it. Ilya said he wanted to change his autograph for the first CS2 Major, but due to the new rules, VALVE didn’t accept the new version of the autograph.
This is what the top 5 most expensive player autographs look like, and the list is unlikely to change. However, the prices will definitely change. If VALVE doesn’t want to surprise users again and cancel discounts, then first they will drop, and then they will rise again. Just in case, we recommend placing requests to buy at a lower price now if you want to purchase one of these stickers. Overall, the Copenhagen Major collection looks like a promising investment and looks great on any weapons in the game. Who knows, maybe z4KR will make it to the next “home Major,” and this event won’t be the last for FalleN. After all, Furia has already been eliminated from the tournament, and perhaps the 32-year-old player will consider ending his career. Rumor has it that Ilya Osipov may change his residence, and the sticker with the G2 logo in the background will be the last in the career of the Russian esports player. And donk is one of the main contenders for the MVP of the first CS2 Major, which will undoubtedly also affect the autograph’s value.
