Settings, crosshair, and ViewModel of GOAT Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev

There is no doubt that Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev is considered one of the best, if not the best, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive players in history.

Moreover, in the last few hours, it has been announced that s1mple was the best player of 2022 according to HLTV, beating Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut and Dmitriy “sh1ro” Sokolov.

S1mple settings

Since s1mple joined NaVi in 2016, he has exceeded all expectations as a player. He is a complete player, capable of performing with rifles and a great fragger, but he excels exceptionally with his AWP.

Thanks to s1mple, NaVi has managed to be at the top of the top competitive level of CS:GO in recent years. He has been the team’s mainstay in the numerous titles they have won consecutively. While in 2020, they could only win the Blast Spring Finals in June, the AWPer never failed to deliver in each appearance.

If you are a fan of s1mple and want to play like him (at least using his exact game settings), stay with us to get to know it.

The game must be closed entirely to put the launch options.

• Open Steam and go to Library.
• Look for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and right-click on it.
• Select Properties, and in the “General” tab, the Launch Options box will appear on the right side of the screen.
• Paste the code there and start your game.

While these settings will by no means make you play at s1mple’s level, you can get an idea of how your favorite player plays in each of his games.
