If you've played a bit of CS:GO, you know how freakin' important crosshair is, right? It's like the holy grail of aiming. In this article, we're going to dive into all types of crosshairs, talk about the small details like color and size, and, of course, check out what the pros are using.

I want to start the article with the fact that no matter what scope you have, it will not make you Niko or S1mple if you do not train your shooting and pre-aim. We will talk about pre-aim and efficient ways of training your shooting skills in the following articles. You can play on any crosshair and become a beast, but there are certain ones that can really improve your skills and give you extra confidence in the game.

Three rules in the world of crosshairs

First rule: There is no universal crosshair. Each player has his own crosshair, and this is correct and normal.
Second rule: There are crosshairs with a dot inside and without a dot inside. Everything else is just a variation with its own features.
Third rule: All crosshairs are suitable for any shooting style, as true professionals adjust the shooting style to the situation.

Now that you've learned these three rules, we can look at the pros' crosshairs.

#15 Shiro (Dmitry Sokolov)

Let's start with the crosshair from Sh1ro, a player from Team Cloud9. Like most of the players on this list, Sh1ro has a crosshair without a dot inside, and it is static. This crosshair is universal for both riflers and snipers.

The main plus is the absence of a dot in the center of the crosshair, which gives a clear vision of the enemy's head. This is especially useful at long distances or in places on the map where only the enemy's head is visible.

For a beginner player, aiming can be tricky as the crosshairs can blend into the environment on some maps, like Ancient, but this can be easily fixed by changing the color in the game settings.

#14 Ax1Le (Sergey Rykhtorov)

Сrosshair from Ax1Le, another player from Team Cloud9. Although both players prefer crosshairs without a dot inside, their crosshairs are completely different.

It is immediately noticeable that Ax1le has a larger crosshair compared to the teammate's crosshair, but this is not the main difference. Ax1le's crosshair is dynamic when shooting, which is especially useful for riflers.

The main advantage of this crosshair is dynamism. For a novice player who has not yet learned spray patterns, it will be useful to play with a dynamic crosshair. This will allow you to feel the "recoil" of the weapon.

#13 BlameF (Benjamin Bremer)

Сrosshair from BlameF, a player from Team Astralis. If we compare this crosshair with the crosshairs of the two previous players, we will notice that this one is very small and has a dot inside. 

Most likely, such dimensions of the crosshair are suitable for BlameF because they are especially convenient at close range and do not block the view at long distances. 

The main advantage of this crosshair is its size, but this is an advantage for more advanced players who feel the center of the screen. For beginners, this crosshair can be difficult, as it will be lost from sight, which will lead to a loss of concentration when trying to find the crosshair.

#12 apEX (Dan Madesclaire)

Crosshair from Apex, one of the winners of the last major in Paris from team Vitality. Like most players, Apex uses a static crosshair without a dot inside.

Apex's crosshair is similar to Shiro's. Both are static, without a dot inside. The only differences are the color and size. Apex's crosshair is slightly smaller and yellow, which has almost no effect. It's just more convenient for the player.

The main advantage of this crosshair is its size. The crosshair is small and works well for both riflers and snipers, but the yellow color can blend in with the environment on maps like Mirage or Dust 2, but, as in the case of Shiro's crosshair, this can be easily fixed in the game settings.

#11 Spinx (Lotan Giladi)

Crosshair of Spinx, another winner of the Major in Paris from Team Vitality. Lotan prefers a static, small crosshair with a dot in the middle.

Spinx’s and BlameF’s crosshairs are very similar. Although Lotan prefers a larger version so that all the advantages, like convenience at different distances, are complemented by good crosshair visibility.

The main advantage of Spinx’s crosshair does not differ from the advantages of BlameF's crosshair; the sight is still small and convenient for close, medium, and long distances.

#10 Rain (Håvard Nygaard)

Crosshair from Rain, MVP of the Antwerp Major 2022 from team Faze Clan. Rain prefers a static, small crosshair without a dot inside.

Crosshairs like Rain's can be confidently called a modern classic, which is used by most professionals and, judging by the results, is used for a reason.
Håvard’s crosshair is comfortable and versatile for any shooting style.

The main advantage remains the same. Small size and convenience for all players and all shooting styles. If you already have certain skills, then this crosshair will be perfect for you.

#9 B1t (Valeriy Vakhovskiy)

Crosshair from B1t, a young player from Team Navi. B1t prefers a static crosshair without a dot inside. The crosshair is a bit like BlameF's crosshair, but in a slightly larger size.

B1t uses a smaller version of a modern classic in blue. Such a small size allows Valeriy to see more of his surroundings and attracts less attention when it comes to assessing the situation.

The main advantages remain unchanged; the crosshair is small and convenient, but still difficult for beginners. The crosshair can be a little tricky for beginners as the scope is small, but for more advanced players, this size is a great option.

#8 Twistzz (Russel Van Dulken)

Crosshair from Twistzz, a player from Team Faze Clan who is known for his skill and for being one of the most handsome players in the pro scene. Russel is also on the list of fans of modern classics, but with a dot inside.

Twistzz uses a much smaller version but also prefers a blue crosshair like B1t. Such dimensions, color, and point allow him to clearly see the environment because the sight is small and inconspicuous.

As with all such sights, size and convenience can be distinguished, but the crosshair still remains universal. The crosshair is still a little tricky for beginners but works well for already skilled players.

#7 Ropz (Robin Kool)

Crosshair from Ropz, another player from Team Faze Clan. Robin is known for his skills. At the very beginning of his career, he was tested by Faceit and proved that he deserved to be among the professionals.

Ropz uses a fairly large static crosshair, most likely because of his vision. Also, this scope allows Robin to perfectly maintain attention when you need to look at one specific position.

The main advantage of the crosshair is that it can be clearly seen with poor eyesight and is definitely impossible to miss. Such a crosshair is perfect for those who still have a hard time feeling the center of the screen.

#6 Broky (Helvijs Saukants)

Crosshair from Broky, the main sniper from team Faze Clan, who has proven himself among professional snipers. Helvijs prefers a crosshair that is dynamic when shooting and has a dot inside. 

Brocky uses this crosshair for the rare occasions when he is not with an AWP. This crosshair helps Helvijs better feel the behavior of rifles and pistols. 

The main advantage of the crosshair is dynamism. Despite the fact that the crosshair can be difficult for beginners to play on a regular basis, it is great for understanding the behavior of different weapons.

#5 Magisk (Emil Reif)

Crosshair from Magisk, the third winner of the recent major in Paris from team Vitality. Emil prefers a medium-sized static crosshair without a dot inside. 

This crosshair, like many previous ones, is great for both riflers and snipers. It is simple, clear, and without unnecessary details.

The main advantage of this crosshair is its convenience. It is perfect for all types of players. An ideal option for beginners would be this crosshair in a dynamic version.

#4 Electronic (Denis Sharipov)

Crosshair from Electronic, a player from team Navi. Denis prefers a static and slightly strange crosshair in the form of a plus.

Electronic's crosshair can raise many questions, but it can be said with accuracy that the sight is unusual. Perhaps this is just an experiment with crosshairs.

The main advantage of the crosshair is its unusualness. This crosshair is a great opportunity for skilled players to get new sensations from the game.

#3 NiKo (Nikola Kovač)

Crosshair from Niko, a player from team G2. Nikola prefers a very small and static crosshair that almost looks like a dot. 

Niko’s crosshair unusually opens the top three crosshairs of professional players, but this choice is understandable. The crosshair dot is very well suited for players who prefer tapping, and Scream can be remembered as a prime example of such a player in the past. 

The main benefit of a crosshair is utility. This sight will perfectly teach beginners to aim at the head and will be useful for experienced players to hone their shooting skills.

#2 S1mple (Oleksandr Kostyliev)

Crosshair from S1mple. A legend from Team Navi, who is well known for his aggressive playstyle that unsettles other players. Oleksandr prefers a small, static crosshair with a dot inside.

S1mple's crosshair is a great example of how a crosshair is just an addition to a skill. This choice is easy to explain. S1mple shows himself perfectly with all types of weapons, so he chose a universal crosshair.

The main advantage of the crosshair is its small size. Experienced players can clearly see what's going on both inside and outside the crosshairs. Beginners can also safely take this crosshair and train their skills.

#1 ZyWoo (Mathieu Herbaut)

Crosshair from ZyWoo, MVP of the Paris Major 2023 from team Vitality. Mathieu prefers a small, static crosshair with a dot inside.

It is immediately noticeable that the sights of ZyWoo and S1mple are very similar. They are distinguished only by a dot inside. The choice of such a crosshair is explained for the same reason as the choice of S1mple.

The main advantage of the crosshair is its improved visibility. The absence of a dot inside frees up space in the center of the crosshair, which helps to better see the enemy’s head even at the longest distances.

In conclusion, I would like to repeat the main idea of the article. Your crosshair can be strange like Electronic's or big like Ax1Le’s; it can be of any color, with or without a dot; but no crosshair will bring you victory without hard training.
