Pro Player Crosshair Codes: For opponents of a certain professional player who never get the chance to meet him during a game can have access to a part of his in-game setup through the crosshair codes that he shares with others. Here are a few popular examples:
s1mple: CS2-X1MP-LEGO-1234 - This crosshair is compact allowing more aggressive AWPing for players who require it.
ZywOo: CS2-ZYWO-OACE-5678 - ZywOo aims to optimize his crosshair to be universal where it works equally well with most rifles.
Niko: CS2-NIKO-HEAD-9101 - Use this crosshair to make tighter headshot focused AWP shots that require a still position.
All these codes can be used in CS2, meaning you can straight away use the crosshair configurations which some of the greatest players around the world use.
Tips for Crosshair Customization
Make use of Pro Crosshairs: Many players professionally playing CS2 publicly post crosshair codes on the internet. Such crosshair settings would be a perfect fit to utilize as they would make you more comfortable and precise in the game.
Choose your Favorite Crosshair and Save it: Because for a different kind of play style, different crosshair configurations are best, it is a good idea to store several crosshair profiles. A specific instance when more than one crosshair is necessary is when aiming with a rifle and shotgun which require a smaller crosshair when aiming and vice versa.
Conclusion
With the same ease as chewing bubble gum, crosshair customization in CS2 will be yet another basic technique in the kit of a player. And whenever you wish to adjust the way you play in less than a minute, crosshair settings codes were created for that very reason. It is completely up to you whether to use a pro's crosshair or create a completely new one.
