Heroic’s captain and AWPer cadiaN is one of the most passionate CS:GO pros out there. At the same time, he’s a true veteran in the scene, having played in the first Major at DreamHack Winter 2013. He has been playing the game since the very beginning, which makes him a perfect example to follow if you’re looking up new settings that work best in today’s meta.
Currently, cadiaN’s the in-game leader of Heroic, who have been consistently securing grand finals appearances and cemented themselves as one of the best teams in the world in 2023. And while they have only secured one trophy in 2023—BLAST Premier Spring Finals—if they maintain their form, more silverware should be waiting for them in the future, most likely in Counter-Strike 2.
The Dane has played many roles throughout his career but has settled as an AWPer for over five years. If you want to play with the AWP as well, some of cadiaN’s configs such as crosshair and video settings might help you optimize your CS:GO setup.
