CHYPHER CS2 Settings: Full Config, Crosshair & Peripherals

Cai "CYPHER" Watson is a British professional CS2 player and he is part of the Bleed eSports team, where he continues to showcase his skills and contribute to the team's success. Active since 2018, he has scored important victories in events such as MESA Nomadic Masters Spring 2024, RES European Series #5 and Thunderpick World Championship 2024: European Series #1. This is why many players want to copy his in-game configuration and get the same gaming gear. To help you accomplish it, we have created this page where you can find all the CYPHER CS2 settings and peripherals.

CYPHER CS2 Settings

To play as a rifler (entry fragger), he uses an in-game configuration that focuses on a higher mouse sensitivity, a small and handy crosshair, a moderate Field of View value and specific video settings. Below, you will find his full list of CS2 settings.

Mouse Settings

Because he plays as a rifler, he needs to use a specific mouse in-game configuration. In this case, he uses a lower DPI value along with a moderately high mouse sensitivity value. Here you have the full list of settings:

  • DPI: 400
  • Mouse Sensitivity: 1.5
  • Effective DPI (eDPI): 600
  • Zoom Sensitivity: 1.2
  • Hz: 1000
  • Windows Sensitivity: 6

As you can see, along with the higher mouse sensitivity, he also uses a higher value for zoom sensitivity, bringing him plenty of reactivity, allowing him to move fast whenever necessary, be it for tracking or flicking.
