XigN settings

XigN plays with a mouse sensitivity of 2.2 and a DPI setting of 400, resulting in an effective eDPI of 880. This combination strikes a balance between precise aiming and the ability to make swift movements, which is favored by many professional players for its versatility in both close-quarters and long-range engagements.

XigN utilizes a static crosshair with a style code of 4, featuring a small gap of -2, a short length of 3, and a thin thickness of 1. The crosshair is rendered in pure white (RGB 255,255,255) without a center dot or outline, providing maximum clarity and contrast against the game environment for precise aiming during high-pressure situations.

XigN uses the ZOWIE XL2546 monitor, renowned for its 240Hz refresh rate and fast response times. This monitor is a popular choice among esports professionals because it delivers ultra-smooth motion and minimal input lag, which are crucial for tracking opponents and executing fast reactions in Counter-Strike 2.

XigN plays on a 1280x960 resolution with a 4:3 aspect ratio, using a stretched scaling mode. This setup increases the size of player models horizontally, making opponents easier to spot and hit, while also reducing visual clutter, which can help with focus and reaction time during competitive matches.

XigN opts for the SteelSeries Rival 110 mouse paired with the SteelSeries QcK Heavy mousepad. The Rival 110 is favored for its lightweight design and reliable sensor performance, while the QcK Heavy provides a large, consistent tracking surface, supporting precise and controlled mouse movements essential for high-level play.

XigN uses the HyperX Cloud Revolver S headset, known for its clear directional audio and comfort during long sessions. This headset enables him to accurately pinpoint enemy footsteps and other critical in-game sounds, giving him an edge in situational awareness and reaction time.

XigN's current keyboard is the Razer Huntsman V3 Pro, which features fast optical switches and customizable actuation points. These attributes allow for rapid and reliable keypresses, essential for executing quick movements, weapon switching, and other vital actions in the fast-paced environment of Counter-Strike 2.

XigN’s setup includes an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super graphics card and an Intel Core i7-9700K processor. This combination ensures high frame rates and smooth gameplay, minimizing stutter or lag and allowing him to fully leverage his high-refresh-rate monitor for optimal performance.

XigN keeps his zoom sensitivity at 1 and Windows sensitivity at the default value of 6. Maintaining a zoom sensitivity of 1 provides consistent mouse movement regardless of whether he's scoped or unscoped, while a Windows sensitivity of 6 ensures that his in-game sensitivity remains predictable and standardized.

XigN has previously used the HyperX Alloy FPS keyboard before switching to the Razer Huntsman V3 Pro. This transition from a mechanical keyboard known for its durability to one with advanced optical technology suggests a preference for faster actuation and customization, reflecting the evolving demands of professional Counter-Strike 2 gameplay.
