Sticker | Ninjas in Pyjamas | MLG Columbus 2016 is the Paper team decal from the 2016 MLG Columbus set, carrying the Ninjas in Pyjamas mark and Valve design. As a base-film team sticker with partial provenance and a High Grade rarity, it sits as a solid mid-tier piece for collectors who want event pedigree without chasing premium finishes.
This is a Paper team sticker: the Ninjas in Pyjamas emblem issued for the 2016 MLG Columbus set and rendered in Valve's official design. It is not an autograph or community spray but a team decal intended for player kits and collector inventories.
Paper occupies the base rung of the finish ladder for this set, beneath premium treatments like Holo, Foil, Glitter and the top-tier films. As the standard film, it is the common canvas most players and collectors encounter before stepping up to rarer variants.
Labeled as a mid-tier price bracket, this Paper team sticker lives in the practical middle ground for collectors: accessible compared with premium finishes, but offering more event specificity than generic stock. For someone building a themed loadout or filling a team collection, it balances cost and relevance.
The sticker carries the Ninjas in Pyjamas org mark, a straightforward emblem collectors peg to roster loyalty and fan preference. Team decals pull steady interest from supporters and set completers, and the NiP graphic is the focal point for anyone chasing that org on weapons or in cabinets.
This decal comes from the 2016 MLG Columbus capsule, which is the event printed on the sticker. Event provenance matters because collectors track where a sticker was released and the specific capsule it belongs to when assembling an event or team collection.
As a standalone capsule release, copies of this Paper sticker entered circulation through the original capsule drops and secondary trades since. Everyday supply is shaped by remaining clean stock, how many were applied to weapons, and the handful that surface in trades and sales.
Once applied to a weapon a sticker can be scraped down to thinner layers and it is destroyed if scraped away entirely. Every craft or sticker application that uses a physical copy reduces the available clean stock, so intact, unapplied copies only grow scarcer over time.
This item is graded High Grade, which places it above the base consumer drops yet below the top-tier rarity bands like Contraband. That grade underpins collector expectations for scarcity and helps set it apart from the most common paper prints.
Collectors use Paper team stickers like this one for clean, classic crafts where the org mark is the visual anchor rather than an elaborate finish. While premium films can make a craft pop, a well-placed Paper NiP looks tidy and cohesive on neutral weapon skins, and steady demand for such crafts feeds back into desirability.
Released as part of the 2016 MLG Columbus lineup, this sticker belongs to a mid-era wave of event-specific team decals. Its release timing and Valve design place it among other tournament issue team stickers from that period, which collectors reference when grouping sets by event and capsule.
