Sticker | 100 Thieves (Foil) | Boston 2018 is an Exotic CS2 tournament sticker created to commemorate the ELEAGUE Boston 2018 Major. Its metallic foil finish, recognizable 100 Thieves branding, and connection to an unusual chapter in Major history make it a distinctive collectible for sticker enthusiasts and high-end weapon crafts.
Visual Description
The sticker centers on the classic 100 Thieves emblem, using the organization's circular wordmark as its main visual element. Red, black, and darker neutral tones give the logo strong contrast, while the Foil treatment adds a reflective metallic surface that reacts noticeably to in-game lighting. Unlike a Holo sticker, which relies on shifting colors, the Foil version produces its appeal through highlights, depth, and a polished metallic appearance. The Boston 2018 tournament branding completes the design without overwhelming the team logo. Applied to a weapon, the sticker works particularly well when the surrounding finish allows its red and metallic details to remain clearly visible.
History and Origin
The Sticker | 100 Thieves (Foil) | Boston 2018 belongs to the official sticker collection produced for the 2018 ELEAGUE Boston CS:GO Championship. It first appeared in December 2017 and is classified as an Exotic sticker. Its historical background is especially interesting because 100 Thieves' Brazilian roster withdrew from the Major before playing at the event. The organization had acquired the former Immortals core, but roster and immigration complications ultimately prevented the team from competing. The already released tournament stickers consequently became reminders of a Major appearance that never actually happened on the server. The sticker remains usable in Counter-Strike 2 and can be applied to weapons or progressively scraped.
Popularity and Usage
Collectors value this sticker for reasons extending beyond its appearance. It combines an internationally recognizable esports brand, an older Major collection, a Foil finish, and an unusual tournament story. Those characteristics have made unapplied examples particularly interesting to collectors. For weapon crafting, the bold red logo can provide a strong accent on dark, red, black, or neutral finishes. Some players also prefer keeping the sticker unapplied because applying it permanently transfers the collectible onto a specific weapon.
Price Formation Factors
The market value of the 100 Thieves Foil Boston 2018 is shaped primarily by remaining supply, collector demand, tournament age, and the sticker's historical significance. Availability of unopened Boston 2018 capsules also matters because capsules represent a potential source of additional stickers. Demand can change with interest in 100 Thieves, older Major collectibles, and premium CS2 crafts. Market liquidity is another important factor: relatively scarce stickers can experience wider differences between buy orders and active listings than commonly traded items.
