Sticker | Pixiu (Foil) is the Foil finish of a community artwork released through Valve's Workshop and issued in the Perfect World Sticker Capsule 2. This is not an autograph or team sticker; it is a community-design Exotic issued as part of that capsule's roster.
Foil sits above the paper baseline in the finish ladder for its set and is treated as a premium film relative to simple paper prints. In the typical hierarchy of films, Foil is a step up from paper and below the absolute top-tier specialty finishes used elsewhere in the economy.
Collectors prize the Foil Pixiu because the film adds reflective depth that the paper version lacks, lifting the artwork when viewed on a skin. The finish_rank here tags it as a premium film, which is the main behavioral driver for collectors choosing it over the base design.
This is a Workshop piece rather than a team or autograph sticker; the Pixiu artwork comes from the community and was released under Valve's designer credit. As a Valve-listed Workshop release, it carries the pedigree collectors expect from officially sanctioned community submissions.
It was released in the Perfect World Sticker Capsule 2, so it sits among the other designs valve issued in that capsule. That origin ties it to the capsule's assembled set and the distribution mechanics that capsule releases imply.
Applied to a weapon, a sticker can be scraped down and eventually removed only by destroying the applied copy; selecting a craft or removing an applied sticker consumes that sticker. Every craft that uses a copy burns it, so available clean stock gradually thins with use.
The sticker is marked Exotic and sits in the higher rarity tier of the sticker ladder, which underpins its collectible profile and scarcity narrative within its capsule. That rarity grade is what places it toward the upper end of the distribution compared with common paper items.
Collectors favor Foil crafts for placement on showcase parts of a skin where the reflective film catches light, and Pixiu's artwork is often positioned to complement a weapon's lines. Because Foil lifts the image visually, it is chosen for visible crafts that aim to highlight the community design rather than hide it beneath wear.
Released through Valve's Workshop program as part of the Perfect World Sticker Capsule 2, this Pixiu piece belongs to the era of community-driven capsule drops. Its release under that capsule places it with other Workshop designs from the same distribution window and informs how collectors contextualize it within the broader sticker timeline.
