The MP9 Wild Lily sits in the Saint Marks Collection, dropped into the game during the 2019 Shattered Web era. Valve built it as a custom hand-painted look: a purple body with blue lily motifs pressed across the compact SMG frame. On such a small silhouette, the contrast reads clearly without turning into visual noise—spin it in inspect and you can track where the flowers land and how the color blocks blend.

Release & collection context

It went live 18 November 2019 as part of Saint Marks. If you collect by operation or map theme, this piece is one of the easier Wild Lily–line items to recognize when you are filling gaps in that set.

Rarity, wear, and what changes in-game

• Rarity: Legendary
• Finish: Custom hand-painted style
• Float range: 0.00–0.70 — lily edges and the cleanliness of the purple base shift noticeably by tier

Low wear keeps hand-painted edges crisp and the blues saturated. Mid-to-high wear pushes a field-worn look: the floral outline softens and the purple can look more muted under harsh lighting.

Inspect checklist (360°)

1. Blue lilies — under bright light, do they stay vivid or wash toward gray?
2. Purple base — is the fill even, or are there obvious scuffs that break the “canvas”?
3. Pattern placement — on MP9’s compact receiver, a few degrees of rotation change which petals sit on top; pick a listing whose layout you actually like, not just the float number.

Loadout pairing

Dark, low-saturation gloves and knives usually frame the cool purple/blue palette better than a full neon stack. Treat the lilies as the accent; let the purple carry the gun’s silhouette.

Where to shop

Filter on C5GAME or the Steam Community Market by Saint Marks Collection plus your target wear band—collection name beats guessing from display names alone when you compare listings.

Shopping verdict

Worth it if you want a recognizable Saint Marks MP9 with a calm cool-tone floral identity and you are willing to pay for a float that preserves blue saturation. Pass or downgrade wear if you care about showroom inspect but your budget only reaches floats where the lilies gray out—save money and lean into the battle-worn vibe instead.

Editor’s aside

Flavor line on the skin: Stop and smell the cordite—flowers first, punchline second. That joke lands harder when the paint still looks fresh; a beat-up Wild Lily almost becomes a different skin, more “spent magazine” than “garden party.” Match tier to how much irony you want on screen.
