M4A4 | Poseidon

Origin Story

The M4A4 | Poseidon, released on May 26, 2015, as part of Operation Bloodhound, is a highly sought-after skin from The Gods and Monsters Collection. It features a custom paint job depicting a battle between Pisces and Poseidon, with a dominant teal and blue color palette that highlights the mythological theme. This design, particularly the visible right side of the receiver with Poseidon and the surrounding water, makes it a prized item for collectors of Greek mythology-themed inventories. Its status as a rare, high-tier collector piece is further solidified by its limited availability from a non-active collection.

Drop Chance

M4A4 | Poseidon is Classified, a Pink-tier skin, rare with strong collector demand. It can drop as an end-of-match reward from active competitive play on the Gods and Monsters Collection item pool. Map drops follow a weighted rarity system that heavily favors common grades, so Classified drops are uncommon and Valve doesn't publish per-skin odds. It is the only Classified skin in the collection. Most copies enter the market through trade-up contracts or direct purchase at a listed seller's price.

Skin Condition

Float range 0 to 0.33. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested.

• Factory New (No Recent Price): Colors are most vibrant with deep teal water and bright figure details, showing minimal to no visible scratching on the receiver.
• Minimal Wear (No Recent Price): Overall artwork and colors remain very close to Factory New, with only small edge scratches or slight fading on high-contact metal parts like the muzzle.
• Field-Tested (No Recent Price): More noticeable edge wear and small scratches appear on the barrel, handguard, and rear stock, with some dulling of color intensity, though the main Poseidon depiction remains clear.

Model

Poseidon uses the legacy M4A4 model, introduced with Operation Bloodhound on May 26, 2015. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.

Players can obtain the skin through trade-up contracts, using ten lower-rarity skins from The Gods and Monsters Collection. For guaranteed acquisition, buyers can purchase it directly from the Steam Community Market, third-party marketplaces, or various case-opening and skin trading sites.

Visual Theme

Custom Paint Job: It has been custom painted with a depiction of a battle between Pisces and Poseidon. It features a dominant teal, blue, and green palette, accented by darker navy and contrasting beige sections. In first-person view, the right side of the receiver, which depicts Poseidon and the surrounding teal water, is the most visible element. Community discussions often place it among other "mythology" rifles, pairing it thematically with skins like the AWP | Medusa.

Sticker Compatibility

The M4A4 | Poseidon pairs well with blue, teal, aqua, and ocean-themed stickers, as well as gold or white accents that complement its mythological design. Stickers with Greek, mythological, or water motifs are particularly harmonious. The most visible sticker slots in first-person are on the rear and middle receiver, where they sit near or partly over the Poseidon artwork.
