📈 What Drives Sticker Value
- Tournament & year — Katowice 2014 is the holy grail capsule.
- Finish — Holo and Gold command the biggest premiums over Paper.
- Team — iBUYPOWER and Titan are the legendary names.
- Supply decay — stickers are consumed when applied, so unapplied supply only shrinks over time.
🏷️ Applied vs Unapplied
For grail stickers, an unapplied copy is almost always worth the most — applying it destroys the pristine sticker. That said, a legendary sticker on a matched, iconic base (a rare "craft") can command its own premium among collectors. For everything below grail tier, applying rarely adds value and usually consumes it.
