rain CS2 Settings & Crosshair Code — 100 Thieves Star Configuration

100 Thieves's rain from Norway runs a competitive CS2 configuration as a professional entry fragger: 800 DPI + 0.92 sensitivity (736 eDPI), 1280x960 4:3 stretched, and a compact Classic Static Cyan crosshair. The setup is built around rain's explosive entry style—designed for high-tempo peeks, fast flicks, and fearless map control.

Who is rain and Why Are Their Settings Famous?

rain from Norway competes for 100 Thieves as a entry fragger, widely regarded as one of the most impactful players in professional CS2. rain's settings draw massive search interest because players want to replicate rain's aim feel and crosshair placement.

Community trackers update rain's config regularly—but take.skin keeps settings, gear, skins, and crosshair in one place on the player profile page.

rain's Exact Mouse Settings & eDPI Analysis

Multiple 2026 community sources confirm rain's core mouse parameters:

SettingValue
DPI800
In-Game Sensitivity0.92
eDPI736
Zoom Sensitivity1
Polling Rate1000 Hz
Windows Sensitivity6
Raw InputOn
Mouse AccelerationOff

eDPI (Effective DPI) combines DPI and in-game sensitivity into one comparable number: 800 × 0.92 = 736. At this speed, a full 360° turn takes roughly 56 cm of mouse movement.

For comparison, check settings on take.skin for broky, Twistzz, NiKo. rain's 736 eDPI reflects a preference for a balanced approach between speed and control.

Gear: rain uses the Razer Viper V4 Pro Black on a Pulsar eS Saturn Pro Black pad. Full hardware details—including the ZOWIE XL2566K monitor—are listed on the player profile.

Resolution and Video Settings: The 4:3 Stretched Advantage

rain plays at 1280x960, 4:3 aspect ratio, stretched scaling, fullscreen. This is one of the most common pro setups: enemy player models appear wider on the horizontal axis, which many players find easier to track and crosshair-place.

Video settings prioritize visibility and frame rate over visual flair:

SettingValue
Resolution1280x960
Aspect Ratio4:3 (Stretched)
Display ModeFullscreen
Boost Player ContrastEnabled
Global Shadow QualityHigh
Model / Texture DetailLow
Shader DetailLow
Particle DetailLow
Multisampling Anti-Aliasing4x MSAA
Texture FilteringBilinear
Ambient OcclusionDisabled
NVIDIA Reflex Low LatencyEnabled
FidelityFX Super ResolutionDisabled

The pattern is familiar across top players: high shadows for depth perception, low effects for FPS, and MSAA to keep jagged edges clean at 4:3. rain's ZOWIE XL2566K monitor is built for minimal input latency.

rain's Crosshair Code and Viewmodel

rain uses a Classic Static Cyan crosshair—small, clean, and completely stable during movement and spray. Import it directly in CS2:

CSGO-XFkiS-2NXod-ktkcj-y4KxB-KF3tJ

Crosshair details (from take.skin's live player data):

PropertyValue
StyleClassic Static
ColorCyan (RGB 0 / 255 / 160)
Length1
Thickness1
Gap-4
OutlineNo
Center DotNo
Follow RecoilNo

The cyan crosshair pairs well with 736 eDPI: no recoil expansion, no dynamic spread—just a stable center point for muscle-memory micro-adjustments during sprays and flicks.

Viewmodel commands

Paste these into your console to match rain's weapon position:

viewmodel_fov 60; viewmodel_offset_x 1.5; viewmodel_offset_y -2; viewmodel_offset_z -2; viewmodel_presetpos 0

This is a classic competitive viewmodel: FOV 60, weapon shifted slightly right and pulled back to minimize screen obstruction—ideal for maximum visibility during wide swings and angle clears.

Should You Copy rain's Settings?

Most 2026 community guides agree: learn from rain, but do not blindly copy.

736 eDPI is in a moderate range that many players find comfortable as a starting point.

A smarter approach:

  1. Start nearby. Try 800 DPI × 1.0–1.5 sensitivity and adjust gradually until you find your ceiling.
  2. Test resolution separately. 1280x960 stretched works for pros, but your monitor and GPU may favor a different setup.
  3. Import the crosshair first. It is the easiest element to try risk-free—paste CSGO-XFkiS-2NXod-ktkcj-y4KxB-KF3tJ and see if the classic static style fits your eye.
  4. Compare with other pros. Browse settings for broky, Twistzz, NiKo on take.skin to find a sensitivity band that matches your role.

rain's config is an excellent reference for how a top entry fragger optimizes for aggression + clarity. But the best settings are always the ones you can run consistently, day after day, without sacrificing control.
