New major, new infographic from us! We had an absolute blast watching the entire thing, and congrats to the winners! So cool to see a new dominant era in CS2 (though we would've also loved a Mongolz win in all honesty).
The infographic provided lists the gear that the players have been using. Note that this does not mean that this gear is 'the best' or that you should buy it to get good. There's tons of great gear out there, so infographics like these are meant as a fun little addition.
If you want to know what other players are using, feel free to check our full CS2 pro gear list!
Additionally, if you have any questions, feel free to ask them! I'll be sticking around for a good while to answer stuff.

Quick note: we also listed the tournament-provided gear this time. The monitors and chairs listed in the infographic are what the players use at home. Hopefully we made the infographic informative and easy to peruse, but if you have any suggestions then obviously feel free to let us know!
Man the GPX really was one crazy mouse released by Logitech. no surprise they are milking it to this day
The rise of the Wooting, honestly took the CS pros long enough compared to other games. The keyboard is simply unmatched
Does some1 know if mouse polling rate change anything? I heard that it has sadly no effect in cs2
Deathadder V3 Hyperspeed is goated
Surprises me how oled displays arent yet used at all honrstly
Does that mean noone use pro x superlight 2 DEX? or are they just grouped together
Zowie fell off so hard 🙁
Currently looking for a new headset and not sure if the HyperX Cloud II is still worth it in 2025. Kinda leaning toward the Razer BlackShark V2 Hyperspeed right now
If Pulsar was 9% usage, why was it not on the list when less used mice were? It should have been 4th. This immediately makes me question what other data is missing.
Also, several players were using Deathadder v4, which is not released yet.
superlight gang checking in
Was using Wooting, Artisan and Pulsar 2-3 years before pros adopted those brands. Next development might be fingertip mice like those from G-Wolves – gives unmatched precision and micro-adjustments although at the expense of some stability, will see if people will try it and can handle it.
It’s insane how good hyperX cloud II is. I’ve had mine for almost 10 years without any issues. The soft things that go on ears have worn off but it came with replacement that is still going strong.
I am pretty sure majority of pros used 400 DPI during Shanghai major. So weird to see more pros @ 800 dpi lol
For pros with the wooting, are they using rapid trigger/rappy snappy/socd or just using it to customise the actuation points
What every you do, do not buy gaming chairs. They all suck compared to regular office chairs.
Interesting to see that the super light mice in the low 40 G to 30 G don’t make the cut here. Perhaps since the big brands don’t really make them they just don’t get enough representation.
