It’s that time of the year again: Capsules are being opened, and crafts are being made.
Major stickers have returned to our game. From the very moment the final RMR games had finished, Twitter lit up with pleas for Valve to release the stickers. Now they’re finally here, courtesy of Valve’s new CEO, ropz… apparently?
As is tradition, they were met with a resounding “Meh” from the community.
One of the first things people noticed was the legibility of the new stickers. A lot of the designs just look like a block of colour in-game, as seen here. The team logos in the background are nearly impossible to spot. Oh, and the autographs are unreadable.
This is only a problem on certain stickers though, and golds seem to be entirely fine. It makes you wonder why Valve thought it was a good idea to put white without an outline on bright colours. They’re only an indie company, so I guess we can’t expect too much.
When you can actually see the stickers though, they aren’t all bad.
We love seeing what players come up with when they get to make their own designs. Some of our favourites from this Major include:
There are a lot of good designs this Major, so this list definitely isn't definitive. It’s just a shame roeJ’s design didn’t make it. Or it would’ve been on the list for sure. Better luck next year.
