AK-47 | Wild Lotus (Battle-Scarred)

The AK-47 | Wild Lotus (Battle-Scarred) is a Covert rifle skin showing an ornate orange lotus hand-painted over a green base, in its most heavily worn condition. It's the cheapest way into one of the rarest AK finishes in the game — though even the entry grade of this grail is a serious purchase.

Design

Wild Lotus trades the busy graphics common to AK skins for a painterly, hand-done finish: a green base with an ornate orange lotus laid over it, natural and artistic in feel. The whole design, a Valve creation, revolves around its floral motif, and it bears the in-game line: "Muck or nettles."

AK-47 | Wild Lotus (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

At Battle-Scarred the finish wears its damage openly — heavy scratching and paint loss spread across the body, and the green base fades hardest here. The orange lotus survives as the anchor that keeps the skin recognizable even at its roughest. If you want a genuine Wild Lotus for the lowest possible outlay and don't mind visible battering, this is the way in.

AK-47 | Wild Lotus Rarity

The rarity is Covert, the red tier and the ceiling for a standard weapon skin's grade. Covert being the rarest of the regular rarities means Wild Lotus sits in the most coveted AK-47 bracket there is.

AK-47 | Wild Lotus Case and Collection

Part of The St. Marc Collection from the November 18, 2019 Operation Shattered Web, Wild Lotus is a collection drop rather than a case skin, so it appears as a Covert just about 0.64% of the time. Supply is fixed and demand fierce, which pushes the overwhelming majority of copies through the market instead of being found in-game.

AK-47 | Wild Lotus Patterns

Because the lotus is hand-painted the same way on each copy, Wild Lotus has no random pattern variation at all — no paint seed, no blue-gem to seek out. Float and wear are the only differences between one copy and the next.

StatTrak & Souvenir

There is no StatTrak Wild Lotus, because the counter variant is generated only from weapon-case unboxings and this finish drops from a collection instead of a case. Nor is there a Souvenir version — Souvenir weapons are handed out only through Major-tournament souvenir packages, and The St. Marc Collection has never been part of a Major.

AK-47 | Wild Lotus Price

Battle-Scarred is the cheapest grade of the skin — the entry-level way to own the finish for collectors who care more about having a real Wild Lotus than about its condition. Even so, it stays firmly in grail-tier, four-figure-plus territory, because the scarcity of the skin drives the price far more than the wear does. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is the Battle-Scarred Wild Lotus still recognizable?

Yes. Despite the heavy scuffing and faded base, the orange lotus keeps the design clearly readable at a glance in-game. Battle-Scarred is about accepting visible wear in exchange for the lowest entry price into the finish, not losing the look — the signature floral motif still carries the skin.

Why is the Battle-Scarred Wild Lotus still so expensive?

Because price here is driven by scarcity, not condition. Wild Lotus is a Covert that exists in tiny numbers, so even the most worn grade stays deep in grail-tier, four-figure-plus territory. Battle-Scarred is the cheapest way in, but on a skin this rare, the cheapest grade is still a major buy.

Is there a Souvenir version of the AK-47 | Wild Lotus?

No. Souvenir weapons are only produced from Major-tournament souvenir packages, and The St. Marc Collection has never been offered as one, so no Souvenir Wild Lotus exists in any wear. Every copy on the market is the regular finish, with rarity and price driven entirely by the skin's scarcity as a collection drop.
