Getting your crosshair right in Counter-Strike 2 is vital, but with so many options to tinker with, the best solution can be to copy a CS2 crosshair code used by pros. Here are the crosshair codes for CS2 used by the world’s best players.
With the right crosshair in Counter-Strike, you’ll feel more comfortable hitting headshots, lining up grenades, and controlling your spray.
By default, CS2 will start you with a dynamic green crosshair, but most players don’t like it, as it can be distracting when moving and shooting. Instead, the consensus among experienced players leans towards a less-distracting static one.
There are endless choices, and you could spend hours tweaking your crosshair settings without getting it just right. To save time, these are the crosshair codes used by pro players, which you can try out with a simple copy and paste. You can use these codes in Counter-Strike 2, the same as you did in CS:GO.

We’ve picked out some the world’s greatest players, including both AWPers and riflers, and listed the crosshair codes they use in CS2. Then, check the table below to see even more crosshairs you can try from pros.
Pro players do often change their crosshairs regularly, but we’ll keep this list as updated as possible with new crosshairs as they change. Also, remember that crosshairs will look bigger or smaller depending on what res you play on (16:9/16:10/4:3).
CSGO-OCskf-qjunY-FE6T6-rsTR9-7SVvD
NAVI’s s1mple is regarded as the best player in the history of Counter-Strike, and even though he’s taking a break from competition, he’s still been grinding CS2.
He is using a dot crosshair now in CS2, on a 4:3 resolution, with cyan coloring. While s1mple is mainly an AWPer, he has been using the rifles even more in Counter-Strike 2, given the AWP’s place in the current meta being hit.
You can see s1mple’s complete Counter-Strike settings here.
CSGO-Qzpx5-BRLw8-xFPCS-hTns4-GHDhP
ZywOo, now a major winner in CS:GO, is another player who is almost as good with an AK as the best riflers in the world, while being an AWP user primarily. He uses a small green crosshair as shown, but is regularly playing around with his crosshair like others, so this might change up soon in CS2.
You can see ZywOo’s complete CS:GO settings here.
CSGO-Umk5s-uxPQA-eDfJW-qWMyR-znjPK
Few would argue that Nikola ‘NiKo‘ Kovač is the best rifler in the world. If you aspire to be as good as the G2 star, you’re probably out of luck, but at least you can emulate his crosshair with the code provided.
Check out NiKo’s full settings here.
CSGO-hzrMn-jXu8b-R7VH4-hQ9aa-OnMHA
Like many players, the young prodigy m0NESY uses a cyan-colored crosshair. Although he’s only been in the pro scene for a couple of years, G2’s AWPer has more than proved himself at the highest level and is one of the most exciting players in the world.
You can find m0NESY’s settings in full here.
CSGO-yxFut-M6Vka-p4GAf-X5yZT-ey3JE
Despite some time away from professional play, Astralis legend Nicolai ‘dev1ce‘ Reedtz is back like he never left, and his individual performance is as strong as ever. He uses a yellowish crosshair to tap heads.
CSGO-7ANjy-XxRae-25YoE-7Bfnp-QQSFE
Arguably the greatest North American player of all time in CS:GO, Twistzz, Team Liquid’s Canadian rifler, is another headshot machine, and he does it all with this simple cyan crosshair.
CSGO-HhqGJ-sDkmR-W9oNx-DvQOF-xpuCQ
Twistzz’s teammate, Robin ‘ropz‘ Kool, is often lauded as one of the players with the greatest mechanical skill in CS, even leading to pros accusing him of cheating before he went pro. Of course, it’s actually just his crisp aim, which he achieves with this green crosshair.
He’s already won a tournament in CS2 as well, and is one of the players who has been playing the most.
CSGO-oit62-q2AsV-L2SHE-3hoEJ-cMwLA
Dmitriy ‘sh1ro’ Sokolov, now with Team Spirit, is a superstar in his own right, even if he doesn’t get the shine of his contemporaries like s1mple and ZywOo. His crosshair is somewhat unique among pros, with a faded yellow color.
CSGO-nZtuj-eHzcb-8fyLe-Cxbwc-NHpEM
Cloud9’s star rifler Sergey ‘Ax1Le’ Rykhtorov is quickly making a name for himself as a true threat to the crown of NiKo in this role. If his crosshair is more to your style, then give it a shot using the code above.
CSGO-7ANjy-XxRae-25YoE-7Bfnp-QQSFE
Team Liquid’s Mareks ‘YEKINDAR’ Gaļinskis is tipped as the best entry-fragger role player in the world, with his signature aggression on the T side. He’s more than happy to push any bombsite, confident his expert crosshair placement will help him clear the CT’s power positions. He does so with this neat and tidy green crosshair.
CSGO-LdXHk-hatWX-JjEa8-tuLDN-5tbJD
Even in a struggling Astralis team, Benjamin ‘blameF’ Bremer is a consistent performer. Although sometimes criticized for his passive playstyle by fans, there is no denying that a one-on-one duel with blameF is a risk for even the best in the world. He uses a small, dot-like crosshair to land his shots.
CSGO-BFTzN-avOyU-djZEM-FmwKd-v5TCP
Another of NA’s finest, Jonathan ‘EliGE‘ Jablonowski’s standout trait is often his spray control. While you might think your crosshair is not all that important in this regard, the difference between a dynamic and static crosshair will determine whether it expands or not when firing. ELiGE, like most pros, prefers a static one.
CSGO-mw7Mq-5QZfQ-Bj8m7-LHMTr-cVGOP
The former Heroic star has now joined Astralis for CS2, and although still a young player, stavn has shown moments of pure brilliance on the biggest stage and is a clutch expert, too. He uses a very small, light blue crosshair.
CSGO-VraXK-7zmqf-LQjcY-7VSZz-PDNfN
The best Brazilian player in the world, Kaike ‘KSCERATO’ Cerato, is among the very best riflers globally, and although his FURIA team has struggled to win international events, few would lay much of the blame at his feet. Always a top performer, you can emulate his crosshair with the code above.

You import crosshair codes in CS2 the same way as CS:GO, by pasting the code in the settings menu. To do this, follow these steps:
This will instantly change your crosshair to the exact settings used by one of these pro players, depending on which code you use.
If you want to keep a record of your own code, simply click ‘copy my code’ before importing a new one, and then save this somewhere, in a note on your PC. That way, you can always revert to your previous crosshair easily.
Remember, changing aspect ratio and resolution will also change how the crosshair appears. Many pro players use 4:3 stretched, so their crosshair will look different if you play on a different res. If you are on 16:9, these crosshairs may appear differently than they do for the pro.
