CRUC1AL is a professional CS2 awper currently playing for Gentle Mates from Netherlands. CRUC1AL plays with a high sensitivity setup at 1000 eDPI (400 DPI × 2.5 sens), which is above the pro average of 846. CRUC1AL uses 1280x960 resolution (4:3 Stretched) on a ZOWIE XL2546, paired with a ZOWIE EC2-CW. Over their last 1435 tracked maps, CRUC1AL holds a 1.11 HLTV rating.

Joey "CRUC1AL" Steusel is a Dutch AWPer currently playing for Gentle Mates. His first recorded roster spot dates to 2015, 11 years ago. His roster history runs to 16 teams, headlined by a 3-year run at Endpoint.

CRUC1AL's eDPI of 1000 (400 DPI × 2.5 sensitivity) sits at the 79th percentile of the 1007 pros we track, on the faster side of the pro field. The pro median is 800 eDPI, so before copying these numbers wholesale, translate the feel to your own setup with the eDPI calculator rather than matching DPI and sensitivity digit-for-digit.

Like 57% of the pros in our database, CRUC1AL plays 1280x960 stretched — the classic 4:3 choice that makes character models appear wider at the cost of horizontal field of view. Stretched players tend to value target width for spray control over the extra edge-of-screen information native 16:9 gives.

The crosshair (size 2) is larger than the pro median of 1, in green. Copy it one-click with the share code above, or load it into the crosshair generator to resize it for your own resolution — a crosshair tuned for 1280x960 can feel different at another.

On gear, the ZOWIE EC2-CW is a proven pro choice — 32 other players in our database use the same mouse, and the ZOWIE XL2546 monitor pairing is a staple of tier-one setups. Full peripherals, with every pro using each item, are listed below.

Compare these settings with the rest of the CS2 pro player database, convert the sensitivity to your own DPI with the sensitivity converter, copy the crosshair from the pro crosshair codes list, or look up the hardware in the gear database.
