Sticker | hampus | Austin 2025

A Paper Autograph tied to BLAST.tv Austin 2025, this is a player-signed sticker for hampus playing with Metizport. It is an event autograph rather than a team or community decal and carries the official designer credit from Valve.

This is a Paper finish, the base film in the usual ladder where Holo, Foil and other premium films sit above it. Paper is the standard, readable stock collectors start with before chasing rarer variants.

Labeled in the budget bracket, this sticker maps to the more accessible end of the market for autographs from this capsule. For collectors that want a signed piece from Austin 2025 without jumping to premium finishes, it often serves as the practical entry.

The autograph is hampus, and the sticker is explicitly tied to his Metizport roster presence at BLAST.tv Austin 2025. Full provenance is present, so the signature directly links the sticker to that player and team rather than to an anonymous or community source.

It was released inside the Austin 2025 Contenders Autograph Capsule, so its siblings are the other autographs distributed by that drop. Being capsule-origin stamped means collectors can trace it back to the event release rather than to later one-off promotions.

Applied stickers are a one-way mechanic: once you craft this onto a weapon the applied layer can be scraped down and will be destroyed if removed, and every craft or trade-up that consumes a sticker reduces clean stock. Clean, unapplied copies are therefore the stock that collectors chase because it never comes back.

This piece carries the High Grade rarity, placing it above common base grades but below the highest contraband-level tiers. That rarity underpins why collectors recognize it as a step up from plain commons while still being more attainable than top-tier drops.

Collectors typically apply autographs like this to match team skin palettes and to showcase the signature on visible surfaces such as the receiver or body. Even on Paper, a clean placement on a popular skin can drive demand among players who prefer the look of an authentic inked autograph without the premium finish.

As part of BLAST.tv Austin 2025 releases, this sticker belongs to the mid-cycle era of event autograph drops rather than early fixed-run classics. Its presence in the Austin 2025 Contenders Autograph Capsule ties it to that specific event release window and the cohort of autographs that came with it.
