Valve released stickers for participants and Pick'Em Challenge for IEM Rio Major 2022
Valve has released an update for CS:GO that has added participant and Pick'Em Challenge stickers to the game for the upcoming IEM Rio Major 2022. Now all fans can purchase a Spectator Pass with Pick'Em Challenge, free graffiti and emoticons for the duration of the event championship.
The Spectator's Pass is available in two versions: Regular ($10) and Advanced ($18), which includes the three additional tokens required to receive souvenir packs.
Note that immediately after the appearance of stickers on the network, a scandal broke out involving karrigan. The FaZe Clan captain introduced a sticker mentioning the numbers "22", which Brazilian fans didn't like. If we consider the problems on the part of local fans, then 22 is the number on the ticket of the current president of Brazil, who is re-elected for a new term.
However, the people of the country are not happy with their president, thereby attacking the karrigan with a wave of criticism. However, the Dane assured fans that the number has no political context: "I chose 22 not only because it's my jersey number, but also because this year has been special for my career and my personal life. At the very least, I got married in 2022. For me, the two most important things in my life are my career and my family. And it is in 2022 that I am experiencing my best year and I want to pay tribute to it."
What is included in the Spectator Pass:
- IEM Rio Major 2022 coin that can be upgraded by completing tasks
- Access to the Rio Pick'Em Challenge
- Endless graffiti with team logos for the duration of the tournament
- Favorite team logo on Steam.tv
- Access to IEM Rio Major 2022 souvenir packs
As with previous majors, 50% of the proceeds from the sale of items related to the IEM Rio Major 2022 will go to the teams and players who play in the championship.
