Finn Andersen 36 years old

Finn “karrigan” Andersen (born April 14, 1990) is a Danish professional CS2 player who currently captains Falcons Esports as an in-game leader and rifler. He is the most successful shot-caller in Counter-Strike history and a two-time Major champion, lifting the trophy at PGL Major Antwerp 2022 with FaZe Clan and at IEM Cologne Major 2026 with Falcons. That second title came at 36 years and 68 days old, making him the oldest Major winner ever. Outside the server, karrigan holds a dual master’s degree in Business Administration and Auditing from Copenhagen Business School.

karrigan plays with a compact green crosshair built for clarity rather than flash. The Classic Static style with no recoil follow means the lines never move, so his aim reference stays identical in every spray and every clutch — exactly what an in-game leader needs when his attention is split between the fight and the round plan. There is no dot and no outline, keeping the center of the screen open for spotting shoulders and pixel peeks.

The interesting detail is the Length of 2.5, slightly longer than most pro crosshairs. Paired with a tight Gap of -4 and Thickness of 1, it forms a small cross whose clean lines frame an opponent's head instead of covering it. The Green color at full Alpha 255 stays readable on almost every surface, from the sand of Mirage and Dust II to the darker walls of Ancient and Nuke — copy it if you want a crosshair that disappears from your thoughts and lets you focus on placement.

karrigan CS2 Settings Mouse

DPI 800
Sensitivity 0.9
eDPI 720.00
Zoom Sensitivity 1
Hz 1000
Windows Sensitivity 4

karrigan combines 800 DPI with a 0.9 in-game sensitivity, landing at 720 eDPI — slightly below the average for pro riflers, and it fits his role perfectly. A captain wins rounds with positioning and timing rather than raw speed, so a steadier sensitivity keeps his crosshair glued to head level, while fast 180-degree turns simply demand bigger arm movements. The 1000 Hz polling rate on his Razer DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed keeps inputs responsive, and Zoom Sensitivity stays at the default 1.

karrigan CS2 Settings Viewmodel

FOV 68
Offset X 2.5
Offset Y 0
Offset Z -1.5
Presetpos 2
Bob False

karrigan runs the maximum viewmodel FOV of 68 with the desktop-style Presetpos 2. Offset X of 2.5 pushes the weapon toward the right edge of the screen, and Offset Z of -1.5 sinks it low, so the gun takes up as little central space as possible. With Bob disabled, the model never bounces during movement. For a player who constantly scans the map and reads rotations, this setup keeps the maximum amount of screen free for information.

viewmodel_fov 68; viewmodel_offset_x 2.5; viewmodel_offset_y 0; viewmodel_offset_z -1.5; viewmodel_presetpos 2.

karrigan CS2 Settings Video settings

Resolution 1280x960
Aspect Ratio 4:3
Scaling Mode Stretched
Brightness 93%
Display Mode Fullscreen
Boost Player Contrast Enabled
V-Sync Disabled
NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency Enabled
NVIDIA G-Sync Disabled

Shader Detail Low
Particle Detail Low
Ambient Occlusion Medium
High Dynamic Range Quality
FidelityFX Super Resolution Disabled (Highest Quality)

karrigan plays on 1280x960 with a stretched 4:3 scaling mode, which makes player models appear wider and gives him slightly bigger targets to click on. He keeps Global Shadow Quality on High and Dynamic Shadows on All, because enemy shadows often reveal positions around corners before the model itself appears. Boost Player Contrast is enabled for the same reason, helping silhouettes stand out against bright backgrounds.

Everything that does not provide information is turned down. Model, shader, and particle details are set to Low to reduce visual clutter and keep frame rates high, while NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency is enabled to cut system delay. Maximum FPS is left at 0, so the game runs uncapped and feeds his 360 Hz monitor with as many frames as possible. The 8x MSAA and Anisotropic 8x filtering keep edges and textures smooth on the lowered resolution.

karrigan CS2 Settings Launch options

Launch options are commands you add in Steam (Game > Properties > Launch Options) instead of inside the game itself. They used to be essential in CS:GO, but CS2 handles most things automatically, so only a few of them still matter. For example,

+fps_max 160

locks the game at a chosen frame rate limit. karrigan keeps things simple and does not use any launch options at all, trusting the default CS2 behavior and his in-game settings.

karrigan CS2 Settings Skins

karrigan's inventory was valued at around $47,000 in 2025, which placed him among the ten richest skin collections owned by pro players. The centerpiece is a Butterfly Knife | Doppler Ruby, a deep red gem that trackers value between $9,256 and $13,000 as of August 2026, and it is the knife viewers see in his hands in almost every Falcons match. He pairs it with Sport Gloves | Pandora's Box in Field-Tested condition — even with visible float wear, this legendary pair sells for over $10,000, and its purple-pink fade sits surprisingly well next to the red of the ruby.

His rifle skins carry just as much history. The AK-47 | Fire Serpent is one of the oldest iconic rifle skins in the game, released back in 2013, and few designs match his veteran status better. On the CT side, the AWP | Lightning Strike adds a purple storm finish that fits nicely next to the gloves, even if karrigan leaves most of the sniping to m0NESY these days. Beyond the main loadout, he also keeps an M9 Bayonet | Marble Fade, a Karambit | Slaughter, and a budget-friendly AK-47 | Legion of Anubis worth around $30 — keep in mind that some items in pro inventories are often borrowed from collectors, so ownership can change over time.

karrigan CS2 Settings Stickers

The most meaningful autograph sticker of this player is karrigan (Gold) | Antwerp 2022, which starts at around $36 as of August 2026. It comes from the event where he finally won his first Major trophy, leading FaZe Clan to a 2-0 victory over Natus Vincere in the grand final — for collectors, this sticker captures the moment one of the greatest leaders in CS history completed his legacy. There is also a karrigan (Gold, Champion) | Antwerp 2022 version from the champions capsule, available from roughly $14, plus karrigan (Gold) | Budapest 2025 from about $33, marking his run to the grand final with FaZe, where they fell 1-3 to Vitality.

Here is the twist that makes his stickers special. Even though karrigan won IEM Cologne Major 2026 with Falcons, there is no karrigan sticker from that event. He played the tournament as a stand-in for kyxsan, so the Falcons champion autographs feature NiKo, m0NESY, TeSeS, kyousuke, and kyxsan instead. As a result, the Antwerp 2022 stickers remain his only Major champion autographs, which keeps demand for them alive among fans.

karrigan BIO

Finn Andersen was born on April 14, 1990, in Denmark to a German mother and a Danish father. Long before becoming a legend, he balanced professional play with education, graduating from Copenhagen Business School in 2015 with a dual master's degree in Business Administration and Auditing. Few players in esports have managed anything similar.

His career stretches back to CS 1.6, where he played for mTw and mousesports and was ranked the 8th best player of 2011 by HLTV. In CS:GO, he led dignitas, Astralis, and TSM before his first FaZe Clan era from 2016 to 2018, then rebuilt mousesports into champions and returned to FaZe in 2021. That second chapter delivered the Intel Grand Slam Season 4 and the PGL Major Antwerp 2022 title, plus the HLTV IGL of the Year 2022 award.

karrigan holds the record for the most Majors played with 22 appearances, and Cologne 2026 was already his sixth Major final. After leaving FaZe in April 2026, he joined Falcons Esports as a stand-in just months before IEM Cologne Major 2026 and turned the roster into champions, beating FURIA 3-0 in the final on June 21, 2026. At 36, he reclaimed the record for the oldest Major winner in history — and given how he keeps reinventing every team he touches, counting him out of one more deep run would be unwise.
