rain CS2 settings (2024): Crosshair, configuration, sensitivity, and more

Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) is a free-to-play first-person shooter from Valve and the successor to the immensely popular CS:GO. This latest offering retains the basic principles of the shooter title and develops on the look and feel, delivering a more polished Counter-Strike experience than ever before. All things said and done, the main focus of CS2 is still shooting and out-aiming your opponent.

To perform to the best ability in CS2, you need settings that are optimized to your needs. This can be a bit of a steep climb, considering the number of options the game provides. Thankfully, you can take a look at the settings used by professional players like Håvard “rain” Nygaard. The FaZe Clan rifler has multiple titles to his name, including the PGL Major Antwerp 2022.
