    In competitive Counter-Strike 2, the gear that professional players use—mice, keyboards, headsets, and monitors—can have a major impact on performance. That said, top-tier gear alone won’t make you a better player. Skill, practice, and game sense still matter most—but combining those with the right equipment gives you the best chance to improve.

    It’s worth noting that pro players often are required to use sponsor-provided equipment.

    This CS2 pro gear list helps you build a setup that matches your playstyle, budget, and long-term goals. Each piece of gear has its own quirks—so take time to research before buying.

    “Explore the best 2025 CS2 case drops and souvenirs.”
    Many pros use skins from the latest cases. Blix.gg breaks down what’s new, what’s rare, and which cases offer the best ROI this year.

    Top Gaming Mice Used by CS2 Pros in 2025

    • Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2
    • Razer Viper V3 Pro
    • ZOWIE EC2-CW

    For a long time, ZOWIE mice were considered the best, with a significant gap between them and their competitors, and the vast majority of players used them. ZOWIE remains at the top today, with many using the EC2-CW model, but other models (S2, U2-DW, FK2) are also commonly seen.

    At the same time, Razer and Logitech have closed the gap by offering some of the best CS2 mice for aim and precision—especially the Razer Viper V3 Pro and Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2. Some players still use earlier generations of these models, but it’s safe to say that these three brands attract the majority of professional players in CS2.

    Best Monitors for CS2 Pros: What the Top Players Use

    • BenQ ZOWIE XL2546K
    • BenQ ZOWIE XL2566K
    • BenQ ZOWIE XL2546, XL2540, and XL2540K also appear in the top five

    If you’re looking for the best CS2 monitor in 2025, models like the XL2546K and XL2566K stand out. They offer ultra-high refresh rates (240–360 Hz), reducing motion blur for faster reactions.

    TN panels provide lightning-fast response times, making them ideal for CS2, even if color quality suffers. The 24.5″–27″ size at 1080p–1440p strikes the perfect balance between aiming precision and GPU performance.

    Esports-specific features like DyAc+ blur reduction, Black eQualizer, and flicker-free tech give players a competitive edge.

    “Understand float values and rare skin patterns in CS2.”
    Pro skins often have low float or rare patterns. This Blix.gg guide explains how those details impact both looks and market value.

    Best Keyboards for CS2 Pros: What’s in Their Loadouts

    • Razer Huntsman V3 Pro TKL
    • Logitech G Pro X TKL
    • Wooting 80HE Black

    Gaming keyboards in CS2 aren’t as crucial as they might seem… until Wooting keyboards came along. The Rapid Trigger feature caused a lot of buzz, with many players rushing to buy them for an edge.

    As competitors to Wooting, we highlight the Logitech G Pro X and Razer Huntsman V3 Pro. Most players prefer TKL versions — without the numpad. A more compact keyboard is much easier to transport if needed.

    Overall, keyboards have leveled out again and no longer have a decisive impact. So, choose your model based on your personal preferences.

    Best Headsets for CS2: Pro Picks for 2025

    • Logitech G Pro X 2
    • HyperX Cloud II
    • Razer BlackShark V2 Pro
    • Bose QS20

    While the presence of Razer and Logitech in the top makes sense due to the overall popularity of these brands, the appearance of HyperX in the top 3 is due to the fact that their Cloud II headset set the standard for sound quality in esports headsets.

    Since then, a third model in the series and the worthy HyperX Cloud Alpha have been released, but many still consider the Cloud II one of the top-rated CS2 headsets thanks to its great sound and reliability.

    Many esports events standardize QC20 for noise cancellation, so players got used to them. QC20 provides clear and balanced audio, helping players hear critical sounds like footsteps and utility usage. While not tuned specifically for gaming, the ANC helps isolate important in-game audio.

    CS2 Gear FAQ: Pro Setups and Buying Tips

    What is the most used mouse in pro CS2?
    As of 2025, the most popular mouse among CS2 pros is the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2, followed closely by the Razer Viper V3 Pro and ZOWIE EC2-CW. These models are known for precision, low latency, and lightweight designs ideal for aiming.

    Do all pros use the same gear?
    No. While many use gear from the same top brands—Logitech, Razer, ZOWIE—each pro selects equipment based on personal preference, sponsorships, and comfort.

    Can gear really improve your aim?
    Yes, to an extent. While skill matters most, a responsive mouse, high refresh rate monitor, and low-input-lag keyboard can noticeably improve your consistency and reaction time in CS2.
