Sticker | OG | Rio 2022 is the Paper team sticker for OG issued for IEM Rio 2022. It is a team sticker rather than an autograph or community emblem and was released as part of the Rio 2022 Challengers Sticker Capsule. The designer credited is Valve and its recorded rarity grade is High Grade.
This is the Paper finish, which sits at the base of the finish ladder for the Rio 2022 set. Papers are the standard film collectors expect for utility and crafts; rarer films like Holo, Foil, Glitter, and Gold sit above it in the set hierarchy. Treat the Paper as the foundation that gives the higher-tier finishes their relative scarcity.
The sticker is labeled in the budget bracket, so it occupies the lower end of the value spectrum among Rio 2022 offerings. That positioning makes it accessible for collectors building a set or players buying stickers to apply. Its partial provenance and thin-market profile temper liquidity compared with more actively traded pieces.
This sticker carries the OG organization mark; team stickers act as straightforward support decals and are often picked up by fans or collectors tracking a roster. Team loyalty and visibility in a given event push demand for a team sticker, and OG's badge serves that exact function within the capsule's lineup.
It originates from the Rio 2022 Challengers Sticker Capsule, which groups this sticker with the rest of the Rio 2022 team and player releases. Being a capsule release ties its supply dynamics to crate openings and the capsule's lifecycle, which in turn shapes how common clean copies remain over time.
Applied to a weapon, a sticker can be scraped thinner and is destroyed if removed; the act of applying or crafting consumes a clean copy. Every craft or application reduces the available clean stock, so intact Paper copies are finite and become the resource collectors fight over.
The listed rarity is High Grade, placing it above base commons in the sticker grading ladder and below premium grades like Contraband. That grade anchors expectations for availability and how it compares to the rarer finishes and signature tiers in the same Rio 2022 lineup.
Collectors commonly use Paper OG stickers for straightforward crafts where the org mark complements a skin's theme without overpowering it. Because this is Paper and budget-tier, it suits large-scale crafting runs or subtle placements; collectors who want showpiece crafts typically look up the finish ladder to upgrade to Holo or Foil versions instead.
This piece comes from the IEM Rio 2022 wave of releases, placing it in the event-linked sticker flow around that tournament. Its release within the Rio 2022 Challengers Sticker Capsule defines it as part of that set's production run and collector grouping rather than an older capsule or a later commemorative drop.
