aspas

🇧🇷 Erick “aspas” Santos is one of the most explosive Valorant players in the world. The Brazilian Duelist from MIBR has won the Valorant Champions tournament and is consistently ranked among the top individual performers globally. Known for his aggressive entry fragging, exceptional aim, and fearless style, aspas is the carrying engine behind MIBR’s success and a defining presence in VCT Americas.

Current Mouse: Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2

aspas uses the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2. The mouse’s 60g weight and consistent wireless performance suit his aggressive, fast-paced style — lightweight mice allow for rapid repositioning without wrist fatigue during extended Valorant sessions. The HERO 2 sensor’s precision ensures his entry plays are backed by accurate tracking.

In-Game Settings Breakdown

aspas’s Valorant settings stand out for their very low sensitivity:

• DPI: 800
• In-game sensitivity: 0.4
• eDPI: 320 (DPI × sensitivity)
• Polling rate: 1000Hz
• Resolution: 1920×1080 (native)
• Refresh rate: 360Hz

An eDPI of 320 is quite low — still in the lower tier among top Valorant professionals. The Valorant pro field tends to use 200–500 eDPI; aspas’s 320 sits in the lower portion of this range. At this sensitivity, significant crosshair movements still require large arm motions across a large mouse pad, though it offers slightly more maneuverability than his previous 240 eDPI setup.

Why These Settings?

aspas’ 800 DPI hardware setting is higher than the 400 DPI used by most CS2 players, combined with his 0.4 in-game sensitivity. The math produces 320 eDPI regardless of how the numbers are split between hardware and software.

In Valorant, where gunfights often happen at medium-to-short range with Agents that have mobility abilities, aspas’s low eDPI may seem counterintuitive for a Duelist role. However, his playstyle is built around positioning and crosshair placement — he takes aggressive positions but expects enemies to walk into his aim, rather than performing many reactive flicks. The low sensitivity rewards this — if your crosshair is already pointed at where enemies will appear, reaction speed matters less than steadiness.

At 320 eDPI, aspas compensates for the limited flick speed with exceptional game sense and ability usage. His aggressive entries are calculated, not improvised — the low sensitivity supports consistent execution of planned plays.

eDPI Context in Valorant

For reference, common professional Valorant eDPI ranges:

• Low: 200–350 eDPI (aspas falls near the top of this range — arm aimers, crosshair-placement focused)
• Medium: 350–600 eDPI (most common professional range)
• High: 600–1000 eDPI (wrist aimers, faster reactivity)

aspas’s 320 eDPI is still on the low side for Valorant professionals. It requires a large mouse pad (400mm+ width) and consistent aim training to maintain.
