What Are the Valorant Pro Settings for Performance? 

Pro Valorant players focus their optimization efforts on: 

• Video settings for maximizing frame rates while maintaining visual clarity for spotting enemies 

• Monitor configuration with high refresh rates and proper aspect ratios for competitive advantage 

• Mouse settings with precision sensitivity that enables both quick flicks and accurate tracking

• Crosshair design featuring clean, minimal crosshairs that enhance target acquisition without visual clutter 

Valorant Pro Video and Monitor Settings 

Valorant pros understand that video settings can make or break their competitive performance. The goal isn’t to make the game look good. These Valorant pro settings aim to achieve maximum frame rates, reduce input lag, and enhance enemy visibility. 

1. Zheng “ZmjjKK” Yongkang 

ZmjjKK uses a ZOWIE XL2566K gaming display and competes with a 4:3 aspect ratio. His 1280x960 resolution choice allows for better target visibility while maintaining the high frame rates essential for professional play. 

This setup provides him with the 360Hz refresh rate that eliminates motion blur and gives him every possible advantage in fast-paced duels. 

2. Nikita “Derke” Sirmitev 

Derke’s monitor is the Asus Swift OLED PG27AQDM, using cutting-edge gaming display technology that provides superior contrast and response times while maintaining the high refresh rates essential for competitive play. 

The Team Vitality star maintains settings that prioritize competitive performance over visual fidelity, using a standard 1920x1080 resolution that most Western professionals prefer. 

3. Enes “RieNs” Ecirli 

RieNs’ settings reflect a no-nonsense approach to competitive optimization. Using the standard 1920x1080 resolution with ultra-low graphics settings, he prioritizes maximum performance and clarity above all else. 

His setup with the ZOWIE XL2566K ensures he gets the smoothest possible gameplay experience for his role as an Initiator, where split-second decisions and precise utility placement can determine round outcomes. 

4. Shun “CHICHOO” Zhi Wan 

Like his teammate ZmjjKK, CHICHOO uses the 1280x960 stretched resolution, which many Chinese pro players use. 

His choice of the ZOWIE XL2566K+ monitor ensures he gets the highest possible refresh rate, which is essential for a Controller player who often needs to make quick rotations and precise smoke placements. 

5. Zachary “zekken” Patrone 

Zekken has proven himself as one of the most promising Duelists in North America, leading Sentinels to numerous victories with his aggressive entry fragging style. 

His settings reflect the typical North American approach with standard 1920x1080 resolution and slightly higher anti-aliasing settings compared to some other regions. His ASUS ROG Swift 360Hz monitor ensures he has every technological advantage when making the split-second decisions that define his explosive playstyle. 

6. Erick “aspas” Santos 

aspas’ approach to video settings is minimalist and performance-focused, using the standard 1920x1080 resolution with the lowest possible graphics settings to maximize frame rates. 

As a Duelist, every millisecond matters, and his ASUS ROG Swift 360Hz monitor provides the smoothest possible experience. His settings philosophy centers on eliminating any potential source of input lag or visual distraction that could interfere with his legendary aim. 

7. Kim “t3xture” Na-ra 

t3xture’s video configuration follows the standard high-performance approach with 1920x1080 resolution and minimal graphics settings, but with slightly more anti-aliasing than some players prefer. 

His setup with the ASUS ROG Swift 360Hz ensures he can track enemies smoothly during the rapid movements that characterize his aggressive playstyle. His settings balance performance optimization with just enough visual clarity to excel in the varied situations that Duelist players face. 

Valorant Pro Mouse Settings 

Mouse settings are perhaps the most personal aspect of any pro’s setup, with each Valorant pro finding their perfect balance between speed and precision based on their role and playstyle preferences. Check out GravaStar’s gaming mice if you’re serious about your mouse settings. 

1. ZmjjKK 

ZmjjKK uses a customized VAXEE ZYGEN NP-01S V2 Wireless Pink during competitions, which was specially made for him by VAXEE with the internal technology of the newer V2 model but maintaining the heavier weight of the original version. 

His sensitivity of 0.28 with 800 DPI results in an eDPI of 224, which is on the lower end of the professional spectrum. This lower sensitivity allows him to make precise adjustments when using the Operator, his signature weapon, while still providing enough speed for the quick flicks that have made him famous. 

2. Derke 

Derke uses the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2, one of the most popular choices among professional players due to its lightweight design and reliable sensor. His sensitivity of 0.347 with 800 DPI creates an eDPI of 278, which falls into the medium range preferred by many Duelist players. 

This sensitivity and the lightness of the mouse allow Derke to make the quick movements necessary for his aggressive entry fragging style while maintaining enough precision for longer-range engagements. 

3. RieNs 

RieNs uses the original Logitech G Pro X Superlight with a sensitivity of 0.35 and 800 DPI, resulting in an eDPI of 280. 

This medium sensitivity allows him to effectively use Sova darts and Gekko utilities while still being able to frag out when the situation demands it. The lightweight mouse supports his dynamic playstyle as he moves between support and aggressive roles. 

4. CHICHOO 

CHICHOO opts for the VAXEE ZYGEN NP-01S with a notably low sensitivity of 0.25 and 800 DPI, creating an eDPI of 200. This is among the lowest sensitivities used by professional players, reflecting his role as a Controller who prioritizes precision over speed. 

The lower sensitivity allows for extremely precise crosshair placement and smoke positioning for his anchoring role on defense. 

5. zekken 

zekken uses the Logitech G Pro X Superlight with a sensitivity of 0.314 and 800 DPI, resulting in an eDPI of 251. This falls into the lower-medium range, which suits his role as an entry fragger who needs both precision for initial picks and speed for quick target acquisition when pushing onto sites. 

The Superlight’s minimal weight allows zekken to make the rapid movements that characterize his aggressive Duelist play, while the sensitivity provides enough control for the precise aim that has made him one of North America’s top fraggers. 

6. aspas 

aspas uses the ZOWIE EC2-CW with a sensitivity that has been recently updated to 0.28 and 800 DPI, giving him an eDPI of 224. This relatively low sensitivity reflects his preference for precision over speed, allowing him to consistently hit the difficult shots that define his highlight reels.

The ZOWIE mouse is known for its consistent sensor, which supports aspas’ methodical approach to aiming and positioning. 

7. t3xture 

t3xture uses the Logitech G Pro X Superlight with a low sensitivity of 0.25 and 800 DPI, creating an eDPI of 200. This reflects a preference for precision that might seem unusual for a Duelist, but works perfectly for t3xture’s calculated approach to entry fragging. 

The low sensitivity allows him to make micro-adjustments when tracking enemies and ensures consistency in his aim. The Superlight’s design supports his controlled yet aggressive playstyle. 

Valorant Pro Settings for Keybinds 

Most professional players stick closely to the default VALORANT keybind layout, as Riot Games designed these controls with competitive play in mind. These 7 Valorant pro settings are very similar for keybinds, as outlined below. 

Valorant Pro Settings for Crosshairs 

Professional crosshair design follows specific principles focused on visibility, precision, and minimal visual distraction. Each Valorant pro has refined their crosshair through thousands of hours of practice to create the perfect balance for their playstyle. 

1. ZmjjKK 

ZmjjKK frequently rotates between different crosshair configurations during matches, using crosshair changes as a mental reset tool when his performance dips. His preference is a compact design with short inner lines and no outer lines, which eliminates visual clutter while providing clear reference points for precise aim. 

His latest crosshair code features a unique black color choice with outlines enabled and a center dot for maximum precision. 

2. Derke 

Derke’s crosshair code showcases his preference for green coloring with a distinctive center dot that many players avoid. It prioritizes precision over speed, with minimal inner lines and carefully tuned opacity settings that provide clear target acquisition without overwhelming his field of view. 

3. RieNs 

RieNs uses a cyan-colored crosshair with medium-length inner lines and no center dot. The cyan color choice ensures visibility across all of Valorant’s maps and lighting conditions, while the moderate line length provides good reference points without creating visual clutter that could interfere with enemy spotting during complex utility executions. 

4. CHICHOO 

CHICHOO’s crosshair features white coloring with outlines and includes a center dot. This design prioritizes accuracy for defensive holds and precise smoke placements, with compact inner lines that provide clear aiming references without blocking enemy visibility. 

5. zekken 

zekken uses a white crosshair without a center dot, featuring medium-thickness inner lines that balance visibility with precision. His crosshair design supports his aggressive entry fragging style, providing clear aiming references that work effectively during rapid target acquisition and multi-frag scenarios. 

6. aspas 

aspas’ crosshair code features his signature blue coloring without a center dot, optimized for the precise aim that has made him legendary. His crosshair design emphasizes clean sight lines and minimal distraction, with carefully tuned line lengths and opacity that provide reference points without interfering with target acquisition. 

7. t3xture 

t3xture’s crosshair uses cyan coloring with medium-length inner lines and no center dot, designed to support his controlled yet aggressive Duelist playstyle. His crosshair balances precision with speed, providing clear aiming references that work effectively during both careful pre-aiming and rapid target transitions.
