Sticker | NEO | London 2018

Sticker | NEO | London 2018 is a Paper autograph of NEO tied to Virtus.Pro from the 2018 FACEIT London set. It is an autograph sticker rather than a team or community-only piece and originates from the London 2018 Returning Challengers Autograph Capsule.

This is the Paper film, the base finish in the hierarchy for this set. Paper sits below Holo, Foil, Glitter and Gold variants in terms of finish rarity and visual premium, so expect it to read as the common film in the capsule's ladder.

Market tagging places this sticker in the budget bracket, which means it trades more accessibly than mid or premium autographs from the same event. For collectors that want a named autograph without chasing costlier films, this is the obvious entry point, though supply and demand still move the market in a thin way.

The signature belongs to NEO and is linked to Virtus.Pro; that autograph ties the sticker directly to the player and team identity rather than being an anonymous design. Full provenance is present, which is the detail collectors lean on when judging authenticity and desirability.

It was released in the London 2018 Returning Challengers Autograph Capsule, so it sits with the autograph siblings from that drop rather than the broader event sticker pool. That capsule origin defines the immediate set collectors look through when comparing variants and teammates.

Once applied to a weapon a sticker is consumed by the game mechanic: scraping makes the film thinner and removing the sticker destroys the applied copy. Every craft or application uses up a clean sticker, so the available unattached stock only gets smaller over time.

Valve classifies this piece as High Grade, and within the market it occupies a low rarity bracket among peers. That combination underpins its accessibility while still giving it a place on the official grade ladder between common and the rarer Contraband-class pieces.

Collectors aiming to craft NEO onto a favored gun will often choose layups where a Paper autograph reads cleanly against the skin's color and pattern; signatures on darker backgrounds tend to keep contrast, while lighter skins can wash out Paper film. Because Paper is the base film, some collectors prefer to reserve this for subtle crafts or as a player tribute where a premium finish isn't required.

This sticker comes from the 2018 FACEIT London drop, placing it among later-event autograph releases rather than early collectible-era capsules. Its origin and the Returning Challengers Autograph Capsule association give it a clear spot in the post-2017 autograph flow of releases.
