iM settings

iM currently plays with a mouse sensitivity of 1.2 and a DPI setting of 800, resulting in an effective eDPI of 960. This combination allows for precise crosshair control and smooth tracking, which is crucial for consistent aim at the highest level of play.

iM uses a Classic Static crosshair style with a minimal gap of -2, short length of 2, and zero thickness, opting for a clean look without a center dot or outline. The crosshair color is a highly visible cyan (RGB 255,255,255 with alpha 250), which stands out against most map backgrounds, supporting quick target acquisition without visual distractions.

iM plays on a ZOWIE XL2586X+ monitor, which is known for its high refresh rates and esports-focused features. He sets the Color Vibrance to 10 and Black Equalizer to 9, maximizing color clarity and enhancing visibility in dark areas, while Low Blue Light is set to 0 to maintain accurate color reproduction during long gaming sessions.

iM prefers playing at a 1280x960 resolution with a 4:3 aspect ratio in fullscreen mode, using stretched scaling. He disables V-Sync and G-Sync, sets most details to low (shader, particle, model texture), and enables very high global shadow quality. These choices ensure high frame rates, minimal input lag, and clear visibility of opponents.

iM's current setup features the Logitech G Pro X2 SUPERSTRIKE mouse paired with the ZOWIE G-TR mousepad. This combination is favored for its lightweight, responsive mouse and a surface that provides consistent glide and control, supporting fast yet precise movements required in competitive play.

iM uses the Logitech G PRO X 2 Headset White and Sennheiser CX 300S earphones, ensuring high-fidelity sound reproduction. While specific in-game settings are not detailed in the profile, his choice of equipment suggests a focus on accurate positional audio, which is essential for hearing footsteps and environmental cues in Counter-Strike 2.

iM launches the game with options such as -novid, -tickrate 128, -refresh 240, and -freq 240, along with network commands like +cl_cmdrate 128 and +cl_updaterate 128. These settings remove startup videos, set the server tickrate and monitor refresh rate to 240Hz, and ensure smooth, responsive gameplay by synchronizing network rates with server settings.

iM configures his viewmodel with a field of view of 60, offsets set to 0 (x), 0 (y), and -2 (z), and disables viewmodel bob. This tightly controlled setup minimizes weapon movement and keeps the weapon model out of the way, maximizing visibility and allowing for better focus on crosshair placement and enemy positions.

Historically, iM has adjusted his mouse sensitivity and DPI settings, previously using a sensitivity of 2.3 and a DPI of 400 (eDPI 920). His current lower sensitivity and higher DPI reflect a shift toward greater precision and finer control, which can help with both tracking and micro-adjustments during intense duels.

iM currently does not use DyAc (Dynamic Accuracy) but maximizes color vibrance at 10 and sets black equalizer to 9. These adjustments enhance color contrast and visibility of darker areas on the map, helping him spot opponents more easily and react faster in low-visibility scenarios.
