Boaster’s settings, keybinds, and crosshair for VALORANT

Someone to boast about.

If you haven’t heard of Jake “Boaster” Howlett, are you even a VALORANT fan? We don’t think so. We can’t make you play like him, but we can show you his settings, keybinds, and crosshair so you can at least use the same settings he does.

The British pro is one of the most well-known individuals in the entire VALORANT community thanks to his accomplishments in the scene, and more importantly, his cheerful, goofy, and energetic characteristics.

Boaster started his career in VALORANT with SUMN FC in August 2020 before joining Fnatic in February that year. He’s known for playing a variety of agents including Astra, Sova, and Skye. 

Highlights for Boaster so far have included multiple European region victories with Fnatic at VCT events. He managed to lead the team into many deep runs at international VALORANT events, including the championship run at VCT 2023: LOCK//IN SĂŁo Paulo.

As is the case with many VALORANT players, the 27-year-old has a rĂ©sumĂ© that includes years of pro play on the CS:GO circuit. Boaster played the older tactical shooter from 2015 to 2019 before taking a break from the game prior to starting his VALORANT career in 2020.
