Dominate CS2 Like S1mple: The Ultimate Settings Guide

Want to play Counter-Strike 2 as one of the best? Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev’s skill is undeniable, and while you can’t download talent, you can tweak your settings to match his. This guide breaks down s1mple’s CS2 settings, from his crosshair to his video options, helping you get closer to that pro level.

S1mple’s CS2 Crosshair Configuration

S1mple’s crosshair is all about clarity, helping him stay accurate in intense firefights. You can copy his crosshair using this code:

• “CSGO-3wUf2-ww3TH-UpeGX-s5RjT-fxwPB”.

Just paste it into the game via Settings and further in Crosshair Settings to import and instantly equip his setup! Alternatively, you can configure it manually via Crosshair Settings or workshop maps. Here’s a breakdown of his settings:

• Style: Classic Static
• Follow Recoil: No
• Dot: No
• Length: 2
• Thickness: 0
• Gap: -3
• Outline: No
• Color: Yellow (Red: 0, Green: 255, Blue: 165)
• Alpha Value: 250

Fine-Tuning Aim with S1mple’s CS2 Mouse Settings

S1mple uses a lightweight, high-precision mouse, the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 Magenta, ensuring his movements are fast and accurate. Sensitivity is key, especially when sniping. Too high, and you’ll overshoot targets; too low, and you’ll struggle to react quickly. Finding the sweet spot is crucial for those quick flicks. Here’s a look at his settings:

• Mouse: Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 Magenta
• DPI: 400
• Sensitivity: 3.09
• eDPI: 1236
• Hz: 2000
• Zoom Sensitivity: 1
• Windows Sensitivity: 6

These settings provide the perfect balance between flick shots for quick scenarios while also slow movements when ganking someone. Additionally, the zoom sensitivity makes sniping easier with better control.

S1mple’s CS2 Viewmodel

Viewmodel settings determine how your weapon appears on the screen. S1mple’s settings are designed to keep the weapon model out of the way, improving visibility. You can adjust these settings via the console using these commands:

• viewmodel_fov 68
• viewmodel_offset_x 2.5
• viewmodel_offset_y 0
• viewmodel_offset_z -1.5
• viewmodel_presetpos 2 or 3

Optimize Performance with S1mple Counter-Strike 2 Launch Options

Launch options are commands that run when the game starts, tweaking performance. S1mple uses these:

-freq 360 -novid -console +fps_max 0 or 999

• -novid: skips the intro video.
• -console: enables the developer console.
• +fps_max 0 or 999: removes the frame rate cap.
