Best M4A4 Skins in CSGO (April 2024)

The M4A4, a more accurate but less damaging weapon than its T-Sided counterpart, is the assault rifle of choice for many players on their CT side. With so many skins available for this important gun, it can be overwhelming trying to decide which one works best for you. In this article, we’ll walk through Skinflow’s picks for the 10 best M4A4 skins in CSGO, along with their prices, unique features, and craft ideas!

10.) M4A4 Etch Lord (Battle-Scarred) - $1.50

A very new skin, released in the Kilowatt Collection, the M4A4 Etch Lord has been painted to appear as if it was etched into with an image of a snake and the quote “If you don’t kill the snake, the snake will kill you”. We recommend you pick up this very affordable skin in battle scarred, as it turns gold in high float, compared to its regular black/gray color. The “Gold Web (Foil)” looks amazing on this skin when scraped down to just the spider.

9.) M4A4 Dragon King (Minimal Wear) - $11.75

This skin, a part of the Chroma Collection, has been painted with the image of a cartoon-ish dragon in red and blue. A relatively inexpensive skin, the Dragon King has made it onto this list due to its art style and color scheme. Although applying stickers covers the intricate design on this M4A4, the “Cloud9 G2A (Holo) Katowice 2015” matches the blue on the Dragon King very well.

8.) M4A4 Cyber Security (Field-Tested) - $15.00

A classified grade skin from the Operation Broken Fang Collection, the Cyber Security has diagonal bands of blue, red, and gold that have been painted over its black base. A clean and colorful skin, this M4A4 is a fantastic choice for your CT loadout. We recommend applying the “Battle Scarred” sticker to this M4A4.

7.) M4A4 The Emperor (Field-Tested) - $11.00

Found in the Prisma Collection, the Emperor has been painted using the Emperor tarot card as inspiration. A perfect match for the Empress AK-47, this blue and gold M4A4 has a very powerful and regal design. Since the Emperor has such intricate art, we don’t recommend applying stickers, as it would cover the details of this skin.

6.) M4A4 The Coalition (Field-Tested) - $26.50

Belonging to the 2021 Train Collection, M4A4 Coalition has a custom gold and black paint job with interlocking triangles and blue highlights. The Coalition is easily the better yellow M4A4 over the Buzz Kill, and takes 6th place for M4A4 skins overall. The “Vigilance (Holo)” fits the blue and gold of this sticker very very well.

5.) M4A4 Poseidon (Factory New) - $1,100

Quite the expensive M4A4 skin from the Gods and Monsters collection, the Poseidon has been painted with a depiction of a battle between Pisces and Poseidon. With a color scheme not far from that of the Medusa, the artistic depiction of an ancient battle easily secures this skin a place on our list. The “Counter-Logic Gaming (Holo) - MLG Columbus 2016” perfectly matches the colors on the Poseidon.

4.) M4A4 Hellfire (Minimal Wear) - $41.00

Released as a classified skin in the Operation Hydra Collection, the Hellfire has a very crude devil-like creature painted among fire and chains. Unless you are willing to spend thousands on a Howl, this M4A4 is definitely your best option for a red CT inventory. We recommend applying the “Fire Starter (Holo) to your Hellfire to continue the fiery theme!

3.) M4A4 Howl (Minimal Wear) - $4,200

The only contraband rarity skin in existence, the M4A4 Howl is undoubtedly one of a kind. It has been painted with an image of a snarling wolf in red, orange, and black. This collectors item carries a heavy price, commonly used by pros due to its unique contraband quality. The Howl looks great with HellRaisers stickers.

2.) M4A4 Temukau (Minimal Wear) - $58.25

The M4A4 Temukau, featured in the Revolution Collection, has been painted in the style of a Japanese animation, and depicts a female CT agent fighting against a T-Side rush. Easily the top pick for all you weebs out there, this M4A4 is float capped at 0.8 (meaning it cannot go above that float value), and wears very easily. To continue the anime theme, you can apply either the “Kawaii CT (Holo)” or the “Kawaii T (Holo)”.

1.) M4A4 Eye of Horus (Field-Tested) - $235

Originating in the Anubis Collection, the M4A4 Horus is one of the more expensive M4A4 skins, but is worth every penny. It has been painted with a white base, gold accents, and the Egyptian falcon god Horus. This M4A4 skin's fantastic artwork and color palette easily make it the best M4A4 skin in Counter-Strike. The “Natus Vincere (Gold)” stickers from the Copenhagen 2024 Major look incredible on the Horus.
