A Holo autograph for dav1d from IEM Rio 2022, pulled from the Rio 2022 Challengers Autograph Capsule. Full provenance and an Exotic rarity put this Holo autograph squarely in the premium autograph tier for collectors of event signatures.
This is a Holo autograph sticker of dav1d representing 9z Team from the IEM Rio 2022 set. It is the Holo Autograph variant of the design released by Valve and sold through the capsule tied to that event.
Holo sits above the base Paper film in the typical finish ladder for event stickers and below rarer premium films. Within this set the Holo film is the premium autograph film that collectors look for when they want more visual depth than paper provides.
Collectors prize Holo because it brings the autograph to life with reflective detail and stronger contrast against most weapon skins, so the same signature on Paper simply does not read the same. The Holo finish also carries the implied premium of a step up from base film, which is why it attracts attention among autograph seekers.
This sticker sits in the mid price bracket for autographs from its capsule, which means it is accessible to active collectors while still offering a noticeable step above budget paper variants. For a collector that wants a balanced hold - visible premium without the extremes of top grail items - this is the pragmatic choice.
The sticker carries the autograph of dav1d and is tied to his time with 9z Team. Full provenance on this autograph underpins collector interest because the signature is explicitly linked to that player and team pairing.
The sticker is tied to IEM Rio 2022. Event provenance identifies the release context and groups this autograph with the other items issued under that tournament's drops.
This piece came from the Rio 2022 Challengers Autograph Capsule, which defines its sibling set and the pool of other autographs released alongside it. Capsule origin is the simplest way to locate related autographs and compare treatments across the same drop.
Applied stickers lose stock when crafted onto a weapon: scraping thins the film and removing a sticker destroys the applied copy. Every craft consumes a copy from clean stock, so available pristine stickers only decline over time as players and collectors use them.
This sticker carries an Exotic rarity grade, placing it on the higher end of the sticker rarity scale for event autographs. That grade underpins how scarce clean copies will be compared with common base stickers.
Autograph Holo films like this are often chosen for prominent weapon faces because the reflective layer amplifies the signature and color contrast. Collectors who plan crafts think about how the Holo will interact with popular skin canvases, since good placement magnifies demand.
Released as part of the IEM Rio 2022 offering, this autograph belongs to the event-era drops that updated the autograph pool for that tournament. Its release ties it to that specific set and the moment collectors track by capsule and event.
