Becoming one of the best riflers in your country is no easy task, no matter where you’re from. Here are the mouse settings Calyx uses to reach such heights.
-
DPI800
-
Sensitivity2
-
Effective DPI (eDPI)1600
-
Zoom Sensitivity1.00
-
Hz1000
-
Windows Sensitivity1000
Taking a page out of his teammate woxic’s book, Calyx has chosen a very high effective DPI value that is made up of a mouse DPI of 800 and an in-game sensitivity of 2, totaling his eDPI to 1600. Simply put, these are insane numbers in professional player terms, but it seems to be working out just fine for him. -

Mouse settings aren’t the only important set of settings to aim properly, as a good crosshair is also required to hit those crisp headshots. Here are the crosshair settings Calyx is using.

Calyx is using a very small crosshair with a crosshair length of 1 and a thickness value of 1, as well. Additionally, he is using a minimal gap of -4, making his crosshair as compact as possible. He has also chosen cyan as his crosshair color of choice.Calyx Crosshair Code Copy & PasteCSGO-ZcTHa-NOG87-SdU3h-vFe8e-xvSyL -

-
Offset Z-1

Unlike most professional players, Calyx is using a very low FOV value of 60, while most prefer 68. Additionally, his viewmodel offset settings are also very unique, as he has gone for 1, 1, and -1, which is very rare to seeCalyX Viemodel Copy & Pasteviewmodel_fov 60; viewmodel_offset_x 1; viewmodel_offset_y 1; viewmodel_offset_z -1; viewmodel_presetpos 1; -

Generally, most players playing on 4:3 stretched understand that their in-game visuals and graphics will immediately look bad, which is why Calyx has chosen to tone down almost all of his advanced video settings to maximize performance instead. -
