Having a good aim is crucial for playing competitive shooter games like Valorant. However, proficient aiming can be useless if a player’s crosshair is not good enough to target enemies.

To change the crosshairs, Riot Games has provided a settings tab in Valorant for customization. The feature also allows one to replicate another player's crosshair settings.
