Sticker | TeSeS | Austin 2025 is a Paper autograph from the BLAST.tv Austin 2025 run, carrying TeSeS's on-card signature for Falcons. As a base-film autograph with full provenance and a High Grade rarity, it sits in the budget band but matters to team collectors and completionists, especially on clean stock.
This is a Paper autograph sticker: an on-card signature for TeSeS representing Falcons, released with the BLAST.tv Austin 2025 set. It is the base-film autograph option from that tournament's autograph lineup and carries Valve's designer credit on the release.
Paper is the entry-level film in the finish ladder for this set, sitting below Holo, Foil, Glitter, and Gold. Call it the baseline canvas collectors expect for autograph drops; rarer films in the same drop sit above it rather than beside it.
Labeled in the budget bracket, this sticker trades as an accessible autograph within the Austin 2025 pool. For someone building a Falcons or TeSeS collection without stretching for premium films, it offers an economical path while still carrying full provenance.
The autograph is TeSeS's and links directly to his Falcons identity from the BLAST.tv Austin 2025 event. That full provenance - an on-card signature tied to player and team - is the provenance collectors pay attention to when comparing autographs across sets.
This piece comes from the Austin 2025 Challengers Autograph Capsule, so it belongs to that capsule's autograph roster and release structure. Being capsule-origin confirmed tells you which sibling autographs were printed alongside it and defines its distribution source.
Once applied to a weapon the sticker films can be scraped thinner and their secondaries altered; removal destroys the sticker entirely. Every craft or application consumes a copy from clean stock, so the number of untouched examples only ever moves in one direction.
The sticker carries a High Grade rarity designation within the sticker grading ladder, placing it above base tiers but below the contraband-style peaks. That grade underpins how collectors slot it relative to other autographs from the same capsule.
Collectors tend to prefer clean, unapplied copies for future crafts, then decide placement by how the signature sits on the skin's canvas; Paper autographs like this read differently depending on the weapon finish beneath them. Because Paper is the base film, players chasing a polished craft will often pair it with complementary skin finishes or save it for utility placements where signature legibility matters most.
This is part of the BLAST.tv Austin 2025 wave of releases, placing it in the mid-era run of tournament autograph capsules produced by Valve. Its release alongside that event fixes its position in the ongoing catalog of autograph drops and ties it to the Austin 2025 narrative rather than older or newer cycles.
