Imagine buying a sticker that can transform how you see it depending on the angle from which you look at it. Well, it’s possible. In fact, it’s one of the most beloved sticker categories in CS: the holographic sticker. Often, simply called Holo. 

In fact, some of the most expensive stickers in the game lie in this category. In fact again, some of the most expensive items in general are holo stickers.

Today, we’re looking at the top 10 holo stickers in existence. And no, we aren’t going strictly on price alone. In fact, that is the last thing we consider. In actuality, having a super expensive price tag actually hurts a stickers placement while discussing the best overall holo stickers. Before we jump into our list, here is some basic info about stickers in general.

Starting with number 10 and first, or last on our list is

Holo | Leaving The Station 

As a Holo, the Leaving the Station sticker features a geometric heart shape with references to the Train map. The colors are great. Just enough to land it at the number 10 spot.

Overall thoughts:It’s pricier than most stickers on our list. That’s one reason it only made it to number 10. We aren’t saying the price is really high, we just think it’s a bit high for the simplicity of the design.

In at number 9

Holo | Salty  

The Salty sticker is number 9 on our list because we love the meaning behind it.  The word “Salty” is often used to define a player who has a bad attitude due to frustration. The sticker itself is a salt shaker filled with the gradient colors of blue, greens, purples, and yellows. Here’s some more info on it:

At number 8

Holo | Natus Vincere | Katowice 2019

Overall thoughts:A great sticker representing a great team. We understand the value of the Natus Vincere | Katowice 2014 sticker. However, we’re creating our list with the concept of most people actually being able to pick up anything on this list.

Coming in at number 7

Holo | Coiled Strike

The Coiled Strike sticker features a serpent coiled around a knife. The shifting of the oranges, yellows, blues, and purples create a sensation of the serpent slithering. We also love that the handle isn’t part of the holo effect.

Tournament: N/A

Containers: Broken Fang Stickers Capsule

Possible great skin combinations: AWP | Atheris, Desert Eagle | Emerald Jörmungandr, M4A1-S | Nightmare, or P90 | Death by Kitty

Overall thoughts:It’s well worth the price. Though it has somewhat of a cliche theme, the execution of the design is spot on. A buy for sure. 

In at number 6

Holo | Unicorn

The Unicorn sticker is colorful, cute, and playful. The pattern on the unicorn plays nicely against the colorful hair. 

Designed by: Enfu

Containers: Enfu Stickers Capsule

Possible great skin combinations: AWP | Fever Dream, AK-47 | Neon Rider, Glock-18 | Moonrise, FAMAS | Meow 36, or MP9 | Wild Lily

Overall thoughts: We understand a lot of players may not want a colorful unicorn plastered across their skins. However, based on design, style, price, and popularity, the Holo Unicorn sticker had what it took to land at number 6.

Halfway there at number 5

Holo | Phoenix Balaclava Co.

As far as Holo stickers go, the Phoenix Balaclava Co. sticker is very affordable. It features a silhouette of a balaclava-wearing figure inside a hexagonal design. The shifting colors give the sticker the green color a player may be looking for, and it offers a lot more for less than most best holo stickers cs2 stickers.

In at number 4

Holo | Web Stuck

The Web Stuck sticker features a spiderweb with a silhouette of a CS player trapped in its stickiness, with CS to the left and GO to the right. We love the pattern in the background, but not as much as we love the illusion created by the design where the spiderweb intersects with itself.

Class: Remarkable

Containers: Shattered Web Sticker Capsule

Possible great skin combinations: Desert Eagle | Crimson Web, AK-47 | Redline, M4A4 | Spider Lily, AWP | Electric Hive, or Glock-18 | Moonrise

Reaching the top 3

Holo | Infinite Diamond

The Infinite Diamond sticker isn’t quite what you’d think. It’s not really in the shape of a diamond, more like a cube. However, the way the colors reflect on each side of the sides that make the cube is just mesmerizing.

Designed by: Jake Stollery

Released: February 1st, 2022

Tournament: N/A

Class: Remarkable

Containers: The Boardroom Stickers Capsule

Possible great skin combinations: AK-47 | Slate, M4A1-S | Printstream, USP-S | Cortex, or AWP | Wildfire

Price: $5.91

Overall thoughts:It’s simple. It’s clean. It’s playful. It’s a bit more expensive than most of the other skins on the list. However, it’s worth it. And that’s why it sits at number 3.

Almost number 1. Just not. At number 2

Holo | Incineration 

The Incineration sticker features a skull centered in a ball of flames. What we love about this sticker and why it sits at number two is the way it shimmers. It’s almost like the ball of flames is really on fire. Really cool concept for the best holo stickers cs2.

And coming in at number 1. For those, counting, it’s the best holo sticker

Holo | Great Wave

The Great Wave sticker is a minimalist tribute to the famous painting, Under the Wave off Kanagawa. The second you see it, you’ll understand why we picked this as the best Holo sticker. The design. The colors. The theme.

Thankfully, this list is about the top 10 holo stickers cs2. Otherwise, the Holo version may not have been number 1. Still an amazing sticker.
