Hiko CS2 Settings: Full Config, Crosshair & Peripherals

Spencer “Hiko” Martin is a retired professional CS:GO player. Although he didn’t manage to keep playing until the release of CS2, many players still want to copy his in-game configuration and gaming equipment, because he scored important victories in top-level events such as Americas Minor Championship - London 2018, DreamHack Open Austin 2018, and ESL One: New York 2016. Famous for being the top rifler (lurker) in the Rogue team, he is still considered as one of the top CS players, and if you’d like to copy his settings and peripherals, then we invite you to stay here, because on this page you are going to find all the information about this in-game configuration and gaming equipment.

Hiko CS2 Settings

Because he didn’t keep playing until the release of CS2, it’s impossible to share the full list of Hiko CS2 settings. However, since many of his CS:GO settings are transferable to CS2, you can use the Hiko CSGO settings in CS2, especially if you want to play as a rifler (lurker).

Mouse Settings

As a rifler and lurker, Hiko needed to move fast but with plenty of precision and control. And hence, it’s why he used the following mouse settings:

  • DPI: 1600
  • Mouse Sensitivity: 1.07
  • Effective DPI (eDPI): 1712
  • Zoom Sensitivity: 1.00
  • Hz: 1000
  • Windows Sensitivity: 6

Unlike AWPers, he opted for a much higher DPI value, a slightly higher mouse sensitivity and a standard value for zoom sensitivity. And if you want to make the most out of this configuration, you should get the same mouse like Hiko, the ASUS ROG Harpe Ace.
