The new Counter-Strike: Global Offensive update adds the feature fans of this hardcore competitive FPS have been hoping for most. Yes, praise Valve! For the low, low price of $65, you can purchase a storage unit filled with all the sparkly stickers used in the upcoming Rio Major.

Don't rush through all of them at once! For most of CS:GO's history, Valve has allowed players to purchase 'sets' of major stickers. These stickers consisted of team logos, event logos, and 'signature' stickers featuring various players' John Hancocks.

Limited-time cosmetics such as tournament stickers and major skins were hoarded by speculators, and in some cases, their value skyrocketed over time.

This is the odd thing about CS:GO's marketplace: one is where the average player trades cosmetics and opens the occasional case, and the other is where the game is very secondary and the rarest collectors' items are considered valuable. So these vaults, in theory, allow players who want to immerse themselves in the Rio spirit and have all the stickers for their team to do so, and at least the paper version is somewhat reasonably priced, at £17 for 145 stickers.

This means that paper and glitter Rio Major stickers are extremely unlikely to accumulate value; the value of CS:GO stickers is in the gold and holographic, and these storage units have no gold or holographic sticker options There are no gold or holographic sticker options for these storage units. Therefore, those who just want the Rio Major sticker can buy it, or a shinier version if they wish.

No, this is not the Source 2 upgrade we were hoping for. But it is a change that will simplify things for many players, allowing them to jump into the CS:GO esports scene without having to buy a bunch of individual stickers or, even worse, endless capsule keys if they so desire.

CS:GO also sells tournament viewer passes that come with in-game event coins, access to Pick 'Em challenges, graffiti, flares, and various other event offers. The coins are very nice: you get a Souvenir Token that transforms into golden goodies (of course, these can be purchased separately.) As with CS:GO, 50% of the proceeds go to the players, teams, and organizations participating in the tournament.

And that's not all: shortly after the Rio Grand Final, champion-signed capsules will be available for purchase.
