Prix M4A4 Poseidon, pourquoi il existe uniquement en Factory New, et comment la finition dieu grec est devenue le M4A4 flagship de CS2 après Howl.
The M4A4 | Poseidon is Counter-Strike's flagship non-Contraband M4A4 finish. Released in the Gods and Monsters Collection in October 2015, it depicts the Greek god Poseidon holding a trident — hand-painted, high-detail, and one of the game's most-loved rifle finishes. Like Lightning Strike and Fade, Poseidon exists only in Factory New — the wear range is capped at 0.00–0.08 float, well inside the FN band.
Poseidon is a classified-tier finish that trades at covert-tier prices due to its FN-only supply. Regular Poseidon Factory New trades $1,500–3,000 depending on float value; low-float examples reach $5,000+. StatTrak adds 40–70% premium. Poseidon is the flagship M4A4 for collectors who don't want to pay Howl prices.
Below are the M4A4 Poseidon variants active in our database with live cross-market prices.
M4A4 Poseidon Factory New trades $1,500–2,500 for higher-float examples, $2,800–4,500 for low-float, and $5,000–8,000 for top-percentile floats with clean stickers. StatTrak Poseidon Factory New reaches $3,000–8,000. There are no other wears (FN only).
The M4A4 Poseidon base finish has a wear-range floor at 0.00 and ceiling at ~0.08 — well inside the Factory New band (0.00–0.07). This is by design — Valve set the wear ceiling to keep the finish looking pristine (the classical Greek art style would look worn-out with paint damage). It permanently caps supply.
Howl is more expensive ($8,000–40,000+ vs Poseidon $1,500–5,000+) because of its unique Contraband status. Poseidon has better liquidity (still drops from Gods and Monsters souvenir openings) and a more accessible entry price. For most collectors, Poseidon is the better "own a flagship M4A4" pick unless budget is unlimited.
Yes — Poseidon has appreciated 300%+ over the last 5 years driven by FN-only supply cap plus collector demand. Low-float examples (<0.02) command 20–40% premium and appreciate fastest.
