Make the battlegrounds shine with these five graffiti patterns!
Graffiti sprays have been a unique addition to Counter Strike: Global Offensive since they were added on October 8th, 2016. The Graffiti sprays are a single item in your inventory that you can spray anywhere on a CSGO map 50 times before you lose it. Many people forget about them, since most graffiti are only three cents and you get it as a drop after a match. Even though a lot of graffiti may be cheap and simple, some are actually very cool and worth some money. Here are the five most expensive graffiti in CSGO.
5. Clutch King - $4.10
A lot of the Graffiti in CSGO are of previous designs that have already been turned into stickers. But the Clutch King is strictly graffiti. This is not to be confused with the "Welcome to The Clutch" graffiti, which is also a sticker. You can find "Clutch King" in the first ever graffiti case, called the "CS:GO Graffiti Box," for $1.08. Or buy the graffiti itself for $4.10 on the Steam Community Market.
4. Rekt - $4.30
"Rekt" was originally a sticker in the Community Sticker Capsule 1. When graffiti was introduced, some community sticker designs were converted into graffiti and added in the "Community Graffiti Box 1" which is $1.08. The "Rekt" sticker only came in Holo, which is unlike most stickers who have different variants. But the graffiti version is only in a simple style since you cannot get graffiti in any special form. If you do not want to buy a graffiti box, you can buy "Rekt" for around $4.30 on Steam.
3. Guardian Dragon - $4.39
"Guardian Dragon" was originally a sticker from the Perfect World Capsule 1, introduced for the release of the Chinese Version of CSGO called "Perfect World". The Perfect World Capsule has many amazing stickers, so it is great to see them in the form of graffiti. The Guardian Dragon is the most expensive graffiti version out of all of the Perfect World stickers, coming in at $4.39 on the Steam Market. Or you can buy the Perfect World graffiti capsule which has a mix of Perfect World Capsule 1 and 2 stickers in graffiti form.
2. Drug War Veteran - $6.40
One of the most popular stickers in CSGO, the Drug War Veteran is one you probably see every game. The sticker was released in Community Sticker Capsule 3 back in late 2014. During that time the MLG 420 memes were popular, so when people saw this sticker they added it onto their guns to associate it with that trend. That got the sticker quite a lot of attention, and more people started buying it, making it quite popular. The sticker may only be around $1.07, but it costs almost six times that in its graffiti version, being $6.40. You could pay for it on the Steam Market, or take a chance and buy its capsule, "Community Graffiti Box 1" for $1.08.
1. Howling Dawn -$15.82
It's not much of a surprise that the most expensive graffiti comes from a sticker with a really high price tag. Many people know the M4A4 "Howl" skin. It is a super rare weapon skin worth thousands of dollars. The Howl's design was put on a sticker in Community Sticker Capsule 1 called "Howling Dawn." It was already worth a lot, but then the sticker was removed from the capsule, making it even more rare. Now the Howling Dawn sticker is worth over $700. When the first CSGO Graffiti Box was released, the Howling Dawn was one of its contents. The graffiti version is significantly less than the sticker version, since you can only use graffiti 50 times before you lose it.
The small world of graffiti in Counter Strike: Global Offensive is quite interesting. Some of the origins of these items have an interesting story. Like China having its own private version of CSGO, or the history of the Howl sticker. When you spray a wall with one of these graffiti, you get to decorate the map with art of a local creator or funny inside joke only Counter Strike fans will understand. It adds more fun and life to CSGO, so get out your spray paint cans and make this game sparkle!
