While using a pro’s crosshair won’t necessarily make you a pro, it can help solve your crosshair struggles. Getting good at CS2 is a long and hard grind and having the right crosshair or even the correct settings can be a nudge in the right direction.
Trying out different crosshairs is fine. Finding the perfect one takes trial and error, but when you do find a crosshair you are comfortable with, stick to it!
Changing up your settings like your sens or crosshair a lot often leads to inconsistent performance in-game. Remember, consistent settings equal consistent performance.
