This is a Paper team sticker for 3DMAX from the 2015 ESL One Katowice set, produced by Valve and labelled High Grade. It is not an autograph; it carries partial provenance tied to the event capsule and is the base-film offering for the team art.
Paper is the base film for this set, the foundation beneath premium films like Holo, Foil, and Gold. Expect Paper to be the commonest film visually and mechanically, with the other films occupying the rungs above it in desirability and finish hierarchy.
Despite being Paper, this sticker sits in the premium bracket among peers because of how the capsule and supply played out. For a collector that means it behaves above ordinary budget-tier papers and demands attention for holding rather than flipping.
The 3DMAX mark is the focal point here; team loyalty and name recognition drive repeat demand for team sticks like this. Collectors who collect particular orgs or build team-themed loadouts will find this one slots cleanly into that case.
This sticker is tied to 2015 ESL One Katowice, and that event provenance is what links the art to a specific drop and capsule. Event provenance gives a sticker its release context and is often the first filter collectors use when sorting sets.
As a standalone capsule piece it reaches the market through initial capsule drops and subsequent listings from players and collectors. Everyday supply is shaped by applied copies, market listings, and the handful of clean stocks that remain in collectors' hands.
Applied stickers can be scraped thinner and will be destroyed if removed; every craft burns a copy. Clean stock only shrinks as people apply, scrap, or craft the sticker onto weapons.
This item is classified as High Grade in-game, while its scarcity ladder placement is towards the lower end of available copies. That combination means it is a recognized grade but one whose clean availability is limited compared with common set pieces.
Collectors will care for the mix here: Paper finish, partial provenance, and limited clean supply make it a candidate for a long-term hold rather than a quick flip. Its place in a Katowice-era capsule and the team connection give it a stable thematic appeal for team collectors.
Paper stickers are often used in crafts for budget-conscious builds or to balance a loadout visually without overwhelming a skin's artwork. Because the film is base-level, placement and layering tactics matter more to preserve the sticker's look while keeping the weapon's design readable.
This piece belongs to the 2015 ESL One Katowice release window and sits with other Katowice-era drops as an early tournament capsule offering. That release context shapes collector interest and how it is compared to later or earlier event drops.
When buying, check for an unapplied, unscraped copy in Paper finish and confirm the partial provenance notes if provenance matters to you. The current market price and live listings are shown in the price block on the page; use that for any purchase decision.
