While using s1mple’s CS2 settings can be one of the best ways to climb up the ranks, make sure you change your viewmodel, crosshair, and video features to suit your playstyle. Sticking to someone’s settings doesn’t always work. If you don’t like s1mple’s settings, you can always check out for other players, like NiKo, ZywOo, or m0NESY.
