However, fans never embraced the newer versions as warmly as the original. That\u2019s why the decision to bring back the \u201clegend\u201d ahead of Major Budapest 2025 was seen as a symbolic gesture \u2014 a return to roots and nostalgia. But the celebration didn\u2019t last long. Just hours after the announcement, NIP shared an update:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"custom-bq\"><div class=\"custom-bq-q\"><p>After reviewing the rules carefully, we had to submit our main logo for the major. This means the Budapest Major stickers won\u2019t feature the OG logo.<\/p><\/div><\/blockquote>\n<p>In short, Valve did not allow the old logo to appear at the Major due to tournament regulations requiring teams to submit their current main organizational logo for all official materials and stickers.<\/p>\n<h3>Valve\u2019s Rules and NIP\u2019s \u201cLoophole\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>According to Valve\u2019s guidelines, any Major-related content \u2014 stickers, banners, tournament graphics \u2014 must display \u201cthe main, legally registered logo of the organization.\u201d This rule helps avoid confusion between different divisions of the same brand (for example, CS2, Valorant, or Dota 2).<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why NIP cannot use the old logo on the Budapest Major 2025 stickers. Still, the organization found a clever workaround \u2014 a \u201cretro rebrand\u201d applied only to their CS2 roster, without altering the official logo for other games. Unlike Liquid or M80, who unified their branding across all esports divisions, NIP went for a playful twist \u2014 bringing back the classic logo exclusively for Counter-Strike fans.<\/p>\n<h3>Community Reaction: Nostalgia, Memes, and Promises<\/h3>\n<p>After the first post, Twitter practically exploded \u2014 thousands of users shared memes, reminisced about the old days, and made wild promises. One fan wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"custom-bq\"><div class=\"custom-bq-q\"><p>If you bring back the old logo I\u2019ll genuinely eat my own ass.<\/p><\/div><\/blockquote>\n<p>To which NIP cheekily replied:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"custom-bq\"><div class=\"custom-bq-q\"><p>Waiting for the video.<\/p><\/div><\/blockquote>\n<p>The exchange spread across social media like wildfire, perfectly capturing the humor and chaos of the classic CS:GO community spirit.<\/p>\n<p>Others were more balanced in their takes:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"custom-bq\"><div class=\"custom-bq-q\"><p>It\u2019s a bit outdated, but the new one is even worse; there should be something in between the two,\u201d\u2014 wrote @woxicfedaisi.<\/p><\/div><\/blockquote>\n<p>NIP\u2019s short and witty response \u2014 \u201cYok.\u201d \u2014 became another viral moment.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, esports media and fan accounts flooded timelines with memes:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"custom-bq\"><div class=\"custom-bq-q\"><p>NIP when CS Major stickers drop \u2014 featuring a meme of Huell lying on piles of cash.<\/p><\/div><\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/G3irRyiXwAAth0X?format=jpg&amp;name=medium\" alt=\"Image\"><\/p>\n<p>BLAST Premier posted a nostalgic reminder of the legendary Katowice 2014 NIP sticker, now worth thousands on the Steam Market.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"article__content grid-cards-col xl-w-100\">\n    <p class=\"article-h3\">read more<\/p>\n    <div class=\"grid-1 gap-12 mb-12 load-parent xl-w-100\">\n        <div class=\"type3 y-red-dif hover-card card-more\">\n        <a class=\"type3__left up-to-card hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/snappi-shared-his-thoughts-on-nips-performance-and-vrs-system\">\n        <div class=\"bg-bottom-abs-short\"> <\/div>\n        <picture class=\"picture object-fit-cover\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"picture__img object-fit-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/PGL-CS2-Astana-2025-Group-Stage-Day-5-Part-1-3-X3.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Snappi shared his thoughts on NiP\u2019s performance and VRS system\">\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/a>\n        <div class=\"type3__right main-structure p-20\">\n        <div class=\"type3__top\">\n            <a class=\"type3__title title-24 hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/snappi-shared-his-thoughts-on-nips-performance-and-vrs-system\">Snappi shared his thoughts on NiP\u2019s performance and VRS system<\/a>\n            <a class=\"go-arrow hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/snappi-shared-his-thoughts-on-nips-performance-and-vrs-system\">\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__left go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779155872#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__center go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779155872#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__right go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779155872#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/a><\/div>\n        <div class=\"type3__bottom blue-labels mt-auto\">\n            <div class=\"blue-label disabled\">Sep 23 2025<\/div>\n            <a class=\"blue-label\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\">News<\/a>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Why This Story Matters<\/h3>\n<p>The return of the old logo turned into a brilliant marketing move ahead of the Major.
