CS2 Charms: Every Charm and Price

Charms are small items that hang from your weapon and swing as you move. Valve added them on 2 October 2024 with the Armory. This page lists the 78 charms of the four Armory charm collections with their rarity and price on October 25, 2026, then explains how you get charms and how attaching and removing them works.

What this list leaves out. Our item data has the 78 regular charms only. It doesn't have the Souvenir Charms that come with Major playoff souvenirs, the Cologne 2026 Highlight Charms (Valve's 30 June 2026 notes: "10 highlights for each of the six stages of the Cologne 2026 Major, and the Falcons' trophy-lifting moment"), or Sticker Slabs. More on those below.

Within each collection: rarest grade first, then by price. A charm's name opens its Steam Market listing; the line under the price opens the marketplace with the cheapest listing.

Charm rarities

Charms use the same four grade names and colours as stickers, from High Grade (blue) up to Extraordinary (red). Rarer grades cost more on the whole, but the ranges overlap: the dearest High Grade charm ($0.25) costs more than the cheapest Remarkable one.

How to get charms in CS2

  • The Armory. Valve's 2 October 2024 notes launched charms "exclusively in the Armory". You buy and activate an Armory Pass, earn Armory Credits whenever you earn XP, and redeem the credits for items. All four collections on this page came out there; Valve announced the two newest in the Armory on 1 October 2025.
  • Major souvenirs. Since the Austin Major, each playoff souvenir comes with a Souvenir Charm holding a highlight from that match (Valve, 2 July 2025). For Cologne 2026, Highlight Souvenir Charms were sold on their own in the Major Shop (30 June 2026).
  • Sticker Slabs. A charm that seals one of your stickers, added on 12 November 2025.
  • Buying one. All 78 charms here are listed on the Steam Market and on the skin marketplaces we track. Valve's launch notes also let you preview a charm from the Steam Market or the Armory on your own weapons before you buy.

The charm slot: attaching and removing

From Valve's launch notes and the charm's own item description:

  • The item description says a charm "can be attached to any weapon you own". Valve's notes add that a weapon holds one charm at a time.
  • You drag and drop the charm to place it where you want on the weapon.
  • To take it off you use a Charm Detachment. The charm goes back to your inventory and you can put it on another gun. Redeeming a charm from the Armory comes with three free Charm Detachments; more are for sale.
  • Charms move with the gun. Valve tuned the physics to weapon animations in October 2024, and since 1 October 2025 they "slightly jolt when a player makes an audible footstep sound".
  • On the bomb: Valve fixed a rendering bug with "transparent charms attached to planted C4 or dropped weapons" on 13 November 2025.

Template numbers and patterns

Since 13 November 2024, a charm's description in the game shows its template number. On 20 March 2025 Valve let Workshop artists submit patterns for the Missing Link Charm, and the Missing Link Community Charms of 1 October 2025 came out of the Workshop. Valve hasn't published the template ranges per charm or said which templates are rare, and we only track prices per charm, not per template, so nothing on this page prices a template.

Charms not in this list

The 78 charms above come from a public item dataset that only covers the four regular collections. These charm types exist in the game but aren't on this page:

  • Souvenir Charms from Major playoffs: Austin 2025 (Valve) and Budapest 2025, where Valve said playoff souvenirs "come with Souvenir Charms, featuring highlights from the match" (12 November 2025). Valve's May 2025 post says you can watch the highlight in your inventory, in Steam, or while spectating a teammate.
  • IEM Cologne 2026 Highlight Souvenir Charms, sold in the Major Shop from 30 June 2026.
  • Sticker Slabs (12 November 2025). What one is worth depends on the sticker inside; see CS2 stickers.

How we price charms

Each price is the cheapest listing on the marketplaces we track, refreshed daily, without the Steam Market (it pays out only in Steam Wallet funds) and BUFF163 and Youpin (they pay out only through Alipay or WeChat Pay), unless nothing else lists the charm. A cheapest listing can be one seller's low ask, so the next cheapest may cost a bit more. Other cosmetics: stickers, agents and music kits.

FAQ

How many charms are in CS2?
Our list has 78 charms: the four Armory charm collections, Dr Boom (22), Missing Link Community (23), Missing Link (17) and Small Arms (16). It does not include the Souvenir Charms that come with Major playoff souvenirs, the Cologne 2026 Highlight Charms Valve put in the Major Shop on 30 June 2026, or Sticker Slabs, because our item data doesn't have them yet. So the real total is higher than 78.
How do you get charms in CS2?
Valve added charms on 2 October 2024 "exclusively in the Armory": you buy an Armory Pass, earn Armory Credits as you earn XP, and redeem the credits for items. Since then charms also come as Souvenir Charms with Major playoff souvenirs (first at the Austin Major in July 2025), as Highlight Charms in the Major Shop (Cologne 2026), and as Sticker Slabs. Every charm on this page is also listed on the Steam Market and the big skin marketplaces, which is the only way to pick an exact one.
Can you remove a charm in CS2?
Yes, with a Charm Detachment. Valve's notes say the charm returns to your inventory and can be reused. Redeeming a charm from the Armory gives you three Charm Detachments for free, and Valve says more are available for purchase.
