Ilya ‘m0NESY’ Osipov is a teenage CS2 prodigy who seamlessly slotted into the top-tier lineup of G2 Esports and helped the squad rise to glory. If you want to play like the teenage Russian pro, you might want to start by copying his CS2 settings, from his resolution and viewmodel to his DPI and sensitivity.

Although you should always experiment and try to figure out the optimal settings for you, pro player settings can provide a great starting point, by adapting what the best CS2 players in the world use.

That being said, using a pro’s settings isn’t an instant fix, as they’ve likely fine-tuned it to their specific preferences and setup. Check out G2 Esports young prodigy m0NESY’s CS2 settings below, and try out what you’d like, before adapting it to your preferences.

With these settings, m0NESY has helped G2 win two IEM titles in 2023, Katowice and Cologne, and a top-four placement at Gamers8 in the same year.
