21 Sep 2022

What are crosshairs and why are they important?

One of the main factors that helps a player improve in FPS games is a comfortable crosshair. Your crosshair size, length, gap, and even the color of your crosshair greatly affect your gameplay. Having your preferred crosshair will surely help you climb up those ranks.

There are two types of players in every FPS game: Sprayers and Tappers. Spraying in Valorant means you hold your fire button and control the spray of your gun. Tapping, on the other hand, aims to defeat your opponent by simply firing your gun and aiming for the head. With this being said, a good crosshair won’t make or break your style, but it will absolutely have an impact on it.

Crosshairs are different for everybody; it is a personal preference. The best way to find your crosshair is to try them out in a game. Stick with us as we guide you through many of the valuable crosshairs used by some of the best pro players in the world.
