Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev is hands down the greatest CS:GO player of all time, and of course, he’s still killing it in CS2 too. If you want to test a new config, there’s hardly anything better than s1mple’s CS2 pro settings to try out.

Here are s1mple’s complete CS2 pro settings, including mouse sensitivity, crosshair, and video config.

Mouse Settings

Unlike his rivals, Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov and Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut, s1mple is known for using a high mouse sensitivity in CS2. This setting made him develop a highly aggressive style of AWPing that distinguishes him from anyone else in the scene.

Crosshair Settings

S1mple’s crosshair is fairly similar to m0NESY‘s, but it’s a little thicker. It’s a tiny crosshair, so only use it if you can properly see it in your games.

Video settings

Like m0NESY and ZywOo, s1mple plays on a 4:3 aspect ratio and a 1280×960 resolution. While I personally don’t like it, surely there’s a reason why some of the best AWPers in the world prefer 4:3 over 16:9.
