M4A4 | Poseidon (Field-Tested)

The M4A4 | Poseidon (Field-Tested) is a Classified rifle skin built around a Greek sea-god theme — a blue frame carrying a trident, temple imagery, and a clash between Pisces and Poseidon. Field-Tested is the most accessible way into this prestigious finish, adding honest wear to a scene the deep palette still carries well.

Design

At heart the finish is an aquatic mythological piece: a blue-and-white body drenched in sea color, a trident rising off the surface, temple imagery, and a depiction of Pisces battling Poseidon. It is a Valve in-house design that trades busy graphics for marine motifs and a painterly, restrained palette. Riding along is an enigmatic in-game line: "Three can keep a secret if two of them are dead."

M4A4 | Poseidon (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

Field-Tested is the most worn exterior this finish reaches, since its float is capped at 0.33 — there is no Well-Worn or Battle-Scarred to go lower. Expect light, honest scuffing on the edges and high points, but the rich blue base absorbs it well and the trident-and-temple artwork stays clearly readable. It is the entry grade to a genuinely high-end skin.

M4A4 | Poseidon Rarity

Rarity: Classified — the pink tier that sits one step below Covert and second-highest among the standard weapon grades. Pulling this grade is uncommon in its own right, and on a finish as prized as this one, it underlines the skin's collector status.

M4A4 | Poseidon Case and Collection

Poseidon comes from The Gods and Monsters Collection, released with Operation Bloodhound on May 26, 2015. Unlike most rifle finishes it is tied to no weapon case at all — players obtain it through rare drops and trade-up contracts rather than opening cases, and that restricted supply route is part of why it ranks so highly among M4A4 skins.

M4A4 | Poseidon Patterns

Because the trident, temple, and Pisces scene sit the same way on every copy, this finish has no random pattern variation — no paint seed to track down, no blue gem worth a premium. Copies differ only by their float and exterior, so wear is the sole variable a buyer needs to weigh.

StatTrak & Souvenir

You will not find a StatTrak Poseidon; that variant originates in weapon cases, and this finish has never been placed in one, so the counter simply does not exist for it. A Souvenir edition is missing as well, as Souvenir weapons drop only from Major-tournament souvenir packages, and Poseidon has never appeared in such a package. The market carries the standard finish alone.

M4A4 | Poseidon Price

Field-Tested is the most affordable grade of the finish, sitting at the foot of its own ladder as the lowest-cost route into a high-end, grail-tier M4A4 skin. For players who want the Poseidon look without the top-grade premium, this is the way in. It is available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is the Field-Tested Poseidon still worth owning?

Absolutely. Even as the most worn grade available, the deep blue base hides scuffing well and the trident-and-temple artwork stays legible, so the skin keeps its striking look in-game. It is the cheapest entry to a prized, case-free Classified finish, which makes it the practical pick for buyers on a tighter budget.

Why is there no grade below Field-Tested?

The finish is float-capped at 0.33, and the game never rolls a copy above that value. Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred both require higher float ranges, so they can't exist here — Field-Tested is as worn as this skin ever gets, which keeps even the lowest grade looking presentable.

Does Field-Tested affect the artwork much?

Not really. The wear shows mainly as light edge scuffing on the metal and high points, while the painted scene across the body stays intact. Between the tight float cap and a saturated blue base that masks scratches, a Field-Tested copy reads far cleaner than the grade name might suggest.
