Sticker | stavn (Glitter) | Rio 2022

This is a Glitter-finish autograph of stavn released in the Rio 2022 Legends Autograph Capsule for IEM Rio 2022. It is an official autograph sticker tied to the player and his HEROIC identity, produced and distributed under Valve's design for that capsule.

Glitter sits above the base paper film in the set's finish ladder and is classified as a premium film for its visual pop. Within the common hierarchy you would read paper as the baseline, with Holo and Foil above it and Glitter occupying the higher, flash-forward tier ahead of plain films but below specialty Gold or Lenticular treatments.

This sticker is labeled in the catalog's budget to mid bracket, which tells you it trades more accessibly than premium grails but still commands attention because of its autograph and Glitter finish. For collectors that move between trades and holds it offers a compromise: more attainable than top-shelf pieces, yet more collectible than paper autographs.

The sticker belongs to IEM Rio 2022 and carries that tournament provenance directly from the capsule branding. Event provenance matters because the capsule name ties the sticker to a specific production run and release window, which collectors track when assessing supply and series completeness.

The Rio 2022 Legends Autograph Capsule was distributed around the event, so the sticker's print was fixed at release and no new drops will add fresh stock. That fixed print means clean, unapplied copies are the finite pool collectors compete over as items move into builds or personal collections.

An applied sticker has been glued onto a weapon and altered by the game's application mechanics; an unapplied, clean sticker remains on its mint backing and is preferred by many buyers who want original condition. Condition and unapplied status are tangible qualities you can verify on inspection and they materially affect desirability among collectors who prize unmodified stock.

Collectors will look at three things here: the autograph provenance, the Glitter film, and the capsule origin. Those three together make this a reasonable hold for someone building an IEM Rio 2022 autograph theme or chasing player-signature variants that show better under premium films.

Glitter autographs photograph and animate differently on darker metal finishes and high-contrast skins, which is why builders often reserve these films for top-side placement. The signature's legibility and the film's shimmer are what drive demand in crafts, since an applique that reads well on a prized weapon will keep drawing attention in screenshots and showcases.

When shopping, verify the copy is unapplied and that the finish is explicitly listed as Glitter, and use the live price block on this page for current market value. Inspect provenance and condition photos carefully; the price block is where the marketplace posts up-to-the-minute figures for this sticker.
