Starry settings

Starry currently plays with a sensitivity setting of 1.5 and a DPI of 400 on his mouse, resulting in an effective eDPI of 600. This combination is favored by many professional players for its balance between swift movement and precise aiming, allowing for controlled crosshair placement and reliable tracking during high-pressure scenarios.

Starry utilizes a Classic Static crosshair style with a custom color blend of bright green (RGB 0,255,180), ensuring maximum visibility against various backgrounds. He opts for a minimalistic shape with a gap of -4, length 1, and no center dot, which reduces visual distractions and supports precise aiming. The absence of outlines and recoil following further streamlines the crosshair, making it a preferred choice for consistent headshots and quick target acquisition.

Starry plays at a 1280x960 resolution with a 4:3 aspect ratio stretched across his screen, a common choice among pros for enlarged player models and improved target visibility. He disables V-Sync and NVIDIA G-Sync to minimize input lag, keeps shader and particle detail on low, and enables boost player contrast to ensure enemies stand out clearly. His setup prioritizes high frame rates and visual clarity over graphical fidelity, aligning with the performance needs of top-tier competition.

Starry uses the ZOWIE XL2566K, a high-end esports monitor renowned for its 360Hz refresh rate, which he leverages via launch options (-freq 360). He enhances gameplay clarity with the 'Premium' DyAc setting, a color vibrance of 11 for vivid visuals, and a black equalizer set to 7 to illuminate dark areas. These settings help him spot opponents quickly and react with precision during fast-paced matches.

Starry currently uses the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 Magenta, a lightweight mouse favored for its swift and consistent tracking. He sets the polling rate to 2000Hz, which provides ultra-low input latency and ensures his movements are registered instantly in-game, giving him a competitive edge during rapid engagements.

Starry relies on the HyperX Cloud III Wireless headset for its clear positional audio and comfort during long sessions. While specific in-game audio settings are not detailed, his choice of a high-quality headset suggests a focus on accurate sound localization, allowing him to detect footsteps and environmental cues essential for strategic play in Counter-Strike 2.

Starry uses the Wooting 80HE Black keyboard, known for its rapid analog input and customizable actuation, allowing him to fine-tune his movement and response times. Pairing this with the VAXEE PB Winter 21 mousepad, which offers a balanced glide and control surface, ensures that his aim and movement remain steady and precise, supporting consistent performance in high-stakes matches.

Starry sets his viewmodel FOV to 68, with offsets of 2.5 (x), 0 (y), and -1.5 (z), and disables viewmodel bob. These settings minimize weapon sway and keep the model low and to the side, maximizing screen space for spotting opponents and reducing distractions during firefights. This approach is popular among pros aiming for optimal situational awareness.

Starry's sensitivity history shows a brief shift from 1.5 to 1.77 before returning to 1.5, with corresponding eDPI changes (600, 708, then back to 600). This indicates a period of experimentation, likely in pursuit of the ideal balance between speed and accuracy. Returning to his original settings suggests he found the initial configuration best suited his playstyle and muscle memory.

Starry's launch options include '-freq 360 -worldwide', which forces the game to run at a 360Hz refresh rate to match his monitor's capabilities, ensuring ultra-smooth visuals and minimal input lag. The '-worldwide' option can affect matchmaking regions or server selection, potentially optimizing his connection for international play.
