Frequently Asked Questions
This is an autograph capsule sticker tied to a player or team that reached the quarterfinal stage at ESL One Cologne 2016. It commemorates participation in the playoff bracket rather than a championship result, which makes it a tournament collectible with clear event-specific meaning.
SK Gaming won ESL One Cologne 2016. They defeated Team Liquid 2-0 in the grand final, and the event is remembered as one of the key Major wins from the Brazilian lineup led by FalleN, coldzera, fer, TACO, and fnx.
No. ESL One Cologne 2016 was a CS:GO Major, not a CS2 Major, because Counter-Strike 2 had not been released yet. The sticker belongs to the CS:GO Major era, even though it can be owned and displayed in CS2 inventories today.
The sticker is associated with ESL One Cologne 2016, one of the Valve-sponsored Majors held in Cologne, Germany. The trophy for that event was won by SK Gaming, so quarterfinalist stickers from the tournament are part of the same Major memorabilia set tied to that playoff bracket.
