With a crosshair style representing one of the most popular social media platforms, players will definitely enjoy the attention from their teammates. That said, it is important to be able to pick frags for the team, and hence, one should make sure to practice with the Instagram crosshair style before starting a placement match.

One can also choose to copy the crosshair profile of the player they are spectating. If readers happen to come across a teammate using the Instagram crosshair, they can simply make use of the new crosshair copy feature.

To get the Instagram crosshair, players should head over to Settings > Crosshair and choose to create a new crosshair profile. Players can name it as they please and must click on the Primary tab to tweak the settings. Filling in the following values will give players the Instagram crosshair:

Valorant's latest patch 5.04 made the already flexible crosshair system even more open. One can now tweak the horizontal and vertical lines of the crosshair independently, save up to 15 profiles and copy a spectated player's crosshair profile with a single in-chat command.

Ever since the patch was deployed, several creative minds have taken the chance to create some of the quirkiest crosshair styles in Valorant. One of the best examples is the Nerd Spectacle, which has taken the community by storm.
