If you’re new to CS:GO and aspire to become a primary AWPer for your group of friends, ZywOo is definitely a professional player you can draw inspiration from. Thankfully, you can do more than just watch his demos—you can take it a step further and copy some of his CS:GO settings.
There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to most in-game settings, but professional CS:GO players like ZywOo understand the game like nobody else and play with optimized video settings that get more FPS and the perfect mouse settings to frag hard.
Using ZywOo’s settings will not make you the best AWPer in the world, but it could be the first step on your road to Global in matchmaking or to level 10 in FACEIT if you’re already a seasoned player. If you don’t like some of the settings, switch to one you prefer instead of forcing something just because a professional player uses it, like I did when I was still learning how to play CS:GO.
