Sticker | sk0R (Holo) | Rio 2022 is a Holo autograph carrying sk0R's signature for IHC Esports from the IEM Rio 2022 pool. It's a premium-film autograph with full provenance and an Exotic rarity that sits above the paper variant in the set.
This is a Holo autograph of sk0R, issued as part of the IEM Rio 2022 release and linked to his IHC Esports identity. It is a signed, event-origin sticker designed by Valve and distributed through the Rio 2022 Contenders Autograph Capsule.
The sticker carries the Holo film, which sits above the base paper finish in the usual finish ladder and below the rarest special films. In a set hierarchy Holo is a premium step up from paper, offering more visual depth and sheen without moving into the top-tier specialty finishes.
Collectors prefer Holo over the paper twin because the film amplifies the autograph and colors without altering the original artwork. Given this sticker's premium finish label, that uplift is a core reason people single it out when browsing the Rio 2022 set.
The autograph is sk0R's and it ties the sticker directly to his IHC Esports identity and tournament appearance at IEM Rio 2022. Full provenance on this piece means the signature provenance is intact, which is a meaningful factor for collectors who prioritize authenticated autographs.
This sticker was released through the Rio 2022 Contenders Autograph Capsule, so it sits alongside the other autograph drops from that capsule. Being a capsule release frames it as part of a themed autograph cohort rather than a standalone community issue.
Applied to a weapon the sticker can be scraped down but removing it destroys the item; crafting or applying copies consumes stock. In short, applied skins are a one-way mechanic and every craft reduces available clean copies on the market.
The sticker is labeled Exotic and categorized as a high-tier rarity in the sticker grading hierarchy, which underpins how collectors think about scarcity. That rarity placement supports stronger collector interest compared with common set pieces.
Collectors favor Holo autographs for placement on showcase weapons because the film lifts ink and signature contrast under light, making crafts visually clearer. Clean, unapplied examples command attention for crafting since each applied copy is one fewer available for collectors who want a pristine roster of crafts.
As part of the IEM Rio 2022 wave, this sticker belongs to the later era of event autograph drops designed by Valve and follows the pattern of capsule-based autograph releases. Its release within that Rio 2022 set places it in the modern autograph lineage rather than the earliest sticker runs.
