EliGE explains what crosshair to choose in CS2, with examples of s1mple, NiKo, and m0NESY
2024-07-22 13:25:00Complexity star rifler Jonathan "EliGE" Jablonowski released a video about crosshairs for CS2 fans. He reviewed other players' preferences, including NiKo, s1mple, donk, and m0NESY. On his YouTube channel, the NA pro also explained the most crucial differences between them.
EliGE himself uses a dot with an outline, but there's a benefit to the classic cross. In the latter case, it's easier to go around the corner as it provides some distance between it and the edge of a wall. Players with tiny crosshairs might tend to stick it too close to the surface.
He noted that donk sometimes changes colors depending on the map. EliGE doesn't have an issue with it because of the outline, but he stressed the importance of crosshair's visibility. Otherwise, you might "lose" it when taking a glance elsewhere.
EliGE doesn't like Ax1Le's dynamic crosshair as it distracts him while spraying. He recommended using a dot in the middle for those who prefer this type. He also advised against thick crosses without gaps, as they can block the target when only a head is visible from behind an obstacle. In his video, EliGE used a crosshair generator map, which you can download here. You can use our guide to custom maps below.
