Outlined Crosshairs
Crosshairs with a black outline for contrast.
An Outlined crosshair adds a dark outline around each line, boosting contrast so the reticle stays visible against any background — light walls, bright skies or busy textures. The outline is one of Valorant's most useful settings for visibility.
Advantages
Readable in every environment. The outline guarantees you never lose your crosshair mid-fight.
Disadvantages
A thick outline can slightly soften the crosshair's edges, which some precision players dislike.
Best For
Everyone — outlines are widely recommended for consistent visibility across all maps.
