Valorant players are constantly finding new ways to personalize their in-game experience, and one of the most popular and whimsical trends to emerge is the “snowflake crosshair.”
While it might not be your go-to for competitive clutch plays, this unique crosshair design is perfect for adding a touch of winter magic or simply having some fun in your next match.
What Exactly is the Snowflake Crosshair?
The snowflake crosshair is a clever customization that leverages Valorant’s extensive crosshair editor to form a pattern that resembles a snowflake.
It’s less about pinpoint accuracy and more about aesthetic flair, quickly becoming a popular “meme crosshair,” especially during festive seasons.
Two Ways to Get Your Snowflake Crosshair
You have two primary methods to equip this icy cool crosshair:
1. Copy and Import a Crosshair Code (The Fastest Way)
Valorant simplifies crosshair sharing with its import/export feature. Here’s how to use it:
- Open Valorant and navigate to Settings > Crosshair.
- Click the “Import Profile Code” button.
- Paste one of these snowflake crosshair codes into the box and click “Import”:
- 0;P;c;5;h;0;0t;3;0l;2;0o;2;0a;1;0f;0;1t;1;1l;5;1o;0;1a;1;1m;0;1f;0
- Alternative: 0;P;h;0;0t;3;0l;2;0o;2;0a;1;0f;0;1t;1;1l;5;1o;0;1a;1;1m;0;1f;0123
- Optionally, name your new crosshair (e.g., “Snowflake”) to easily switch between profiles.
2. Manual Customization in Settings (For the Tinkerer)
If you prefer to build it from scratch or want to fine-tune your snowflake, follow these manual steps:
- Crosshair Color: Set this to White for that authentic frosty look.
- Outlines: Turn Off outlines.
- Center Dot: You can set this to Off or On. If on, a Thickness of 2 or more is recommended for visibility.
- Inner Lines:
- On
- Opacity: 1
- Length: 2
- Thickness: 3
- Offset: 2
- Outer Lines:
- On
- Opacity: 1
- Length: 5
- Thickness: 1
- Offset: 0
- Movement and Firing Error: Ensure both are Off to keep your snowflake static and perfectly formed.
This specific combination of inner and outer line settings is what creates the layered and intricate pattern that mimics a snowflake.
