Souvenir MP9 | Wild Lily (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

This MP9 is recognised by the large pale lily on the side of the receiver and the purple leaf pattern on the grip, magazine and stock. At Minimal Wear the artwork reads almost the same as a pristine copy, with only faint marks on edges that are hard to spot outside the inspect view. It is the grade for a near-clean look at a lower cost than Factory New.

Item type: smg. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The receiver is dark with a ribbed texture, covered by a painted layer of magenta and purple leaves, small blue flowers and orange blossoms, with a large pale blue lily with orange stamens on the rear side. The grip and the long magazine are filled with purple and pink leaf patterns and bordered by thin light outline stripes.

Small specks may appear on the sharpest edges, such as the top rail and the base of the magazine. The lily, leaves and outline stripes stay complete. At normal distance in game it looks the same as Factory New. The grip and stock remain clean.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

The whole float range of Souvenir MP9 | Wild Lily is 0–0.7; Minimal Wear takes the 0.07–0.15 segment (11% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

Origin of the skin

Souvenir MP9 | Wild Lily belongs to The St. Marc Collection, which holds 18 skins. It does not drop from a case: the collection has none — such skins come from operation drops, souvenir packages or the market.

Souvenir version

This is the Souvenir version: such copies dropped to tournament viewers in souvenir packages; the team stickers and signatures on them cannot be removed or chosen. Souvenir items never carry StatTrak™. There is also the regular version without tournament stickers.

Which stickers suit it

Stickers in purple, pink, pale blue or holo finishes match the floral palette, while orange accents echo the small blossoms. Placing them on the front of the receiver keeps the lily on the rear side uncovered.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within its wear, since the lily and the outline stripes show the difference most clearly.
• Look at the receiver edges, the top rail and the magazine base, which wear first on this skin.
• Inspect the lily on the rear of the receiver to make sure its petals are not covered by stickers or scratched.
• For Souvenir copies, check whether the applied stickers fit the purple palette.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want a near-clean look without paying for Factory New.
• Sticker crafters, since the minor edge marks do not affect the artwork.
• A sensible balance of appearance and cost.
