Sticker | kl1m (Holo) | Budapest 2025

This is a Holo Autograph sticker carrying kl1m's signature for team MIBR from the StarLadder Budapest 2025 pool. It is an official Valve release, issued as part of the Budapest 2025 Challengers Autograph Capsule and presented in a premium film rather than the base paper edition.

Holo sits above the paper base in the finish ladder and is considered a premium film for this set. Within the usual hierarchy Holo outranks paper and sits below the rarest special finishes, making it a clear step up from the base stock without moving into the topmost novelty tiers.

Collectors prize the Holo because it visually elevates the autograph and reads cleaner on a weapon than the paper equivalent; the finish_rank here is premium, which is the direct reason hobbyists pick it over the base design. For this sticker that visual upgrade pairs with a fuller provenance, so demand comes from both aesthetics and certainty of origin.

The autograph belongs to kl1m and ties the sticker explicitly to his time with MIBR at StarLadder Budapest 2025. Full provenance on this piece means the signature and its source are verifiable, a feature collectors factor heavily when choosing which autographs to chase.

This came from the Budapest 2025 Challengers Autograph Capsule, which groups the set's signed pieces together and fixes supply to that release. Being from that capsule places this sticker among its autograph siblings and defines how many clean copies ever existed.

Once applied to a weapon a sticker can be scraped thinner but not restored; scraping and each craft consume copies from available clean stock. Every craft or application effectively reduces the pool of pristine stickers, so untouched stickers are the only ones that remain unchanged in number.

The sticker carries an Exotic rarity and the provided rarity_tier ranks it as high; that grade underpins collector interest by placing it above common and uncommon grades. Exotic status is a qualitative anchor for where it sits among sticker grades and influences how collectors categorize it in a collection.

Autograph Holos like this are often chosen for knife and rifle crafts because the Holo film makes signatures pop under light, and clean placement preserves the autograph's legibility. That practical preference for certain weapons feeds demand for un-applied copies and raises interest in high-quality crafts using this finish.

This sticker belongs to the StarLadder Budapest 2025 era and therefore sits with the mid-decade event releases in Valve's rollouts. Its release from the Budapest 2025 Challengers Autograph Capsule marks it as part of that event's autograph run rather than earlier or later sticker cycles.
