Jaccob "yay" Whiteaker is a professional Valorant player who is currently playing for Team Envy. He has proven himself to be one of the best players in the world and will be competing in Valorant Champions later this year. You can use yay’s Valorant settings to get a gauge of what you should be using if you want to take Valorant seriously. However, using yay’s Valorant settings can be difficult as he uses a particularly low sensitivity even by pro player standards and it is not something most players can get used to. You can use his settings as a starting point and adjust them to what works for you.

yay Crosshair Settings
You can try the Valorant Crosshair Generator to try out crosshairs. Crosshairs are a matter of personal preference, but you can find out how to make the perfect crosshair in Valorant or try out yay’s crosshair in the Valorant Crosshair Generator app and see if it suits you.

Inner Lines - 1 / 3 / 2 / 2
Outlines - Off
Outer Lines - 0 / 0 / 0 / 0

Firing Error - Off
Understanding movement error and firing error is important if you want to see how they affect your accuracy when shooting. You can toggle both settings in the shooting range and see how they affect the crosshair visuals. If you leave both settings on, you will notice that the lines on your crosshair react to you moving or firing your weapon, making your crosshair bigger.
