King Crasswater and Queen Ava stickers
Valve changed clarity, not supply or utility. Visual updates can cause short hype, but there is no confirmed scarcity event or new use case.
The play
Do not buy the first spike. Only reconsider if volume holds after 24–48 hours and the updated look is clearly preferred in crafts.

Driver Gloves and Sport Gloves
Skinning fixes may improve presentation, but the notes do not say patterns, floats, supply, or case sources changed. This is not a structural catalyst.
The play
Keep existing positions if you already liked them. Do not add size unless specific finishes show sustained bids after screenshots circulate.
