Jake “Boaster” Howlett is a professional British Valorant player. He is one of the most accomplished in-game leaders in Valorant history, leading Fnatic to multiple international titles and tournament appearances. If you want to follow his steps in becoming one of the best captains in the game, copying his in-game settings is a good way to start.

Crosshair

If you want to become one of the best Valorant players in the game’s history, copying Boaster’s crosshair might be your first step. Spoiler alert, he’s rocking a dot crosshair:

Boaster’s keybinds

Boaster can make calls and still move his in-game character efficiently, thanks to these Valorant pro settings:

Equip Secondary Weapon	2
Equip Melee Weapon	3
Equip Spike	4

Minimap settings

To become a good in-game leader, you need to spend half your time alive watching the minimap. These are the minimap settings Valorant’s most accomplished captain uses:

Minimap Size	1.1
Minimap Zoom	0.9

Video settings

Finally, we’ll check out Boaster’s Valorant video settings.

Unlike most professional players, Boaster uses a Native resolution and aspect ratio:

General Video Settings	Value

Boaster clearly favors one brand for his Valorant gaming setup. It might be a hint that Sony peripherals will help you climb the Valorant ranks:

Peripheral	Product Name
Mouse	ATK Blazing Sky F1
Keyboard	Sony Inzone KBD-H75
Headset	Sony Inzone H9 II
Monitor	Sony Inzone M10S
Mousepad	Sony Inzone MAT-F
