CS2 (CS:GO) stickers are masterpieces. Their creators search for inspiration from many sources, including other video games. These stickers feature characters or symbols from other games and can be a fun way for fans of those games to show their love for them within the CS servers.

In this article, we will show CS2 (CS:GO) stickers dedicated to DOTA 2, Half-Life: Alyx, and other video games, and then see what CS2 (CS:GO) weapon skins combine with them best.

Sticker Collections Dedicated To Other Video Games

CS2 (CS:GO) stickers can be applied both to weapon skins and vanilla models of the weapons. Like skins, they not only change the appearance of the items but also have different attributes such as rarity and material. 

You can’t increase the float value of your weapon skins, but you can do that with applied stickers: just scratch them, and they will look more worn. Also, scratching stickers is the only way to remove them from your gun. Note that it can not be restored or re-applied once you remove the sticker. Before the final scratch, the game will notify you that you will remove the sticker forever if you continue.

So far, Valve has released five separate CS2 (CS:GO) stickers and four sticker capsules dedicated to five other games:

  • DOTA 2.
  • Half-Life: Alyx.
  • Halo.
  • Battlefield 2042.
  • Warhammer 40,000.

That’s a total of stickers in x unique designs. Let’s see them all!

DOTA 2 Stickers in CS2 (CS:GO)

DOTA 2 is a multiplayer online battle arena video game developed by Valve. It was released in 2011 as a sequel to Defense of the Ancient, a mod initially created for Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos.

Even if you have never played the game, you must have heard about The International, the DOTA 2 world championship. The prize pool of this event in 2021 was $40,018,195, breaking the world record. As of now, eight TI events are in the top 10 of the Largest Overall Prize Pools in Esports ranking.

DOTA 2 is a game of strategic thinking, teamwork, and skill, where every match is a new adventure like no other. With a constantly changing meta and new heroes being added to the game, it offers an endless amount of strategies and tactics to master. 

In Steam Workshop, a collection of CS2 (CS:GO) stickers inspired by DOTA 2 appeared in October, 2014. TheDanidem and Zaphk created it. Valve eventually added five of these stickers to Counter-Strike.

List of DOTA 2-themed CS2 (CS:GO) stickers:

  • Doomed – $1.10.
  • Queen Of Pain – $1.10.
  • Piece of Cake – $1.
  • Witchcraft – $1.10.
  • Phoenix (Foil) – $5.50.

All of these stickers are High Grade. Doomed and Queen of Pain were added to the game as a part of the Community Stickers Halloween 2014, then Piece Of Cake and Phoenix (Foil) were released in Community Stickers Series 3 a month later. The last DOTA 2-themed sticker that got into CS was Witchcraft. Valve added it to the Community Stickers Series 4 in February, 2015.

In this collection, there were seven more stickers dedicated to DOTA 2, but unfortunately, they didn’t make it to the game. These are stickers with the game’s heroes Storm Spirit, Sniper, Anti-Mage, Bounty Hunter, Riki, Techies, and Tidehunter. 

Fun fact: the sound of Sniper’s ultimate ability is designed based on the sound of the CS’s AWP shot. So, it’s odd that the Sniper sticker didn’t make it to CS2 (CS:GO).

If you like these DOTA 2 stickers but don’t know what skins they will suit, we have you covered. We came up with three options: 

Doomed sticker

M4A4 | Hellfire and Doomed stickers are a perfect fit, especially if you like playing aggressively. A Factory New skin for M4A4 will cost you $85, but if you want a StatTrak™ variant, get your $150 ready. Two Doomed stickers cost $2.20.
