Best CS2 crosshair codes used by pros

Using the right crosshair for you in Counter-Strike 2 is crucial. But, if you don’t know where to start, why not copy a pro? These are the best crosshair codes for CS2 used by the world’s top players.

With the perfect crosshair in Counter-Strike 2, you’ll feel more comfortable hitting headshots, lining up grenades, and controlling your spray.

By default, CS2 will give you a dynamic green crosshair. However, this is not very popular among seasoned players, as the crosshair’s movement can be distracting. Instead, the more common choice is a static crosshair, that stays perfectly still when you fire or move.

There are countless options for your crosshair, and you could spend hours tweaking it. To save time, these are the best CS2 crosshairs pro players use, which you can try by copying their crosshair codes.

Best CS2 crosshair codes used by pro players

We’ve picked out some of 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 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).

We’ve updated and tested these codes based on the latest available settings from the pro players. These codes are based on whatever code they used in their last official match on record.

s1mple crosshair code

CSGO-3fOaJ-o5fEQ-icxhO-ZdNOV-LMSuK

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 in green. 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.

ZywOo crosshair code

CSGO-ANT8u-PzheP-HWC5Y-8vNOy-tDu8O

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 cyan crosshair as shown, but is regularly playing around with his crosshair. So, like others, you might see him trying something else on stream.

You can see ZywOo’s complete CS:GO settings here.

NiKo crosshair code

CSGO-7S28t-P8jCy-7kYMZ-xZWAH-SEnfO

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.

donk crosshair code

CSGO-2EORZ-dCaa3-AchvE-cHezV-KudqA

A new entry on the list of best players in the world, 17-year-old phenom donk lit up the CS world with his monster performance at IEM Katowice 2024.

Unsurprisingly, his crosshair will now be copied by thousands of players, hoping it might let them entry frag like him. Obviously, it won’t, but it can’t hurt to try.

You can see donk’s full CS2 settings here.

m0NESY crosshair code

CSGO-s5Qbj-nvF89-cJjDd-mRdSG-5Yt4N

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.

This small cyan crosshair is one of the most popular used among professional players.

You can find m0NESY’s settings in full here.

dev1ce crosshair code

CSGO-VG8iY-nEYNv-CyK8k-4tFCP-DqwjN

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 was last seen using this yellow crosshair with a considerable center gap.

Twistzz crosshair code

CSGO-q99Hx-U4kaC-ADdXa-5ie6O-udBAA

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.

malbsmd

CSGO-uDwac-fNMzW-mDZGF-yzxYi-yrmHB

G2’s newest star, Mario ‘malbsMd’ Samayoa, rose up the ranks to tier 1 CS rapidly, and is now cemented as one of CS2’s strongest players. If you want to replicate the Guatemalan’s crosshair, which is a small green one, use the code above.

ropz crosshair code

CSGO-nCfX7-54ue9-aC5eV-6Womf-Q6izO

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.

sh1ro crosshair code

CSGO-s5Qbj-nvF89-cJjDd-mRdSG-5Yt4N

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.

Ax1Le crosshair code

CSGO-VUruu-vsXq5-kNiQC-4cVwq-pLDhP

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.

YEKINDAR crosshair code

CSGO-ufZUO-V27Te-WQRmC-LhG9C-6AU8N

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.

blameF crosshair code

CSGO-sBK5X-8NJbE-sUSks-6XqPd-WOn2H

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.

ELiGE crosshair code

CSGO-euo5G-tcsB2-qajSn-xupSa-RMQNN

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.

stavn crosshair code

CSGO-R4VWt-GuLXO-er6Ha-QJZN3-qdq3B

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.

KSCERATO crosshair code

CSGO-hP4eK-PqkTQ-jo4T7-cmpxc-ZHZML

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.

How to import crosshair codes in CS2

You import crosshair codes in CS2 through the ‘game settings’ menu, by simply pasting the code you want to try. This will change your in-game crosshair instantly. Follow these steps:

1. Open the settings menu in CS2 by clicking the cog symbol
2. Go to ‘Game’ and then ‘Crosshair’
3. On the crosshair preview image, click ‘Share and Import’
4. Paste the code into the pop-up and click ‘Import’

Here’s where you can import the crosshair code in CS2, and see a preview.

This will then change your crosshair to the exact settings used by the professional player. You may also want to check their res though, as most pros play on a 4:3 stretched res, which will make the crosshair larger than on default, 16:9 res.

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. That way, you can always revert to your previous crosshair easily.

How to copy crosshairs in CS2

1. Press tab to open up the match scoreboard
2. Click on the player’s name that you want to copy from
3. Select “Copy Crosshair”
4. Select “Yes” to replace your current crosshair
