What Is the Average eDPI for Valorant Pros in 2026?
Why Do Pros Tend to Use Lower eDPI Than Ranked Players?
Valorant is a game that punishes mechanical overextension. Unlike Apex Legends or Overwatch, where tracking a moving target rewards high sensitivity, Valorant’s economy and round structure means most aim duels happen from pre-aimed positions. A player who holds a corner with their crosshair already at head height does not need to move their mouse much — just click.
Ranked player data generally shows that Gold and Platinum players tend to use higher eDPI than pros — often in the 300 to 380 range. This gap reflects crosshair placement habits: as players improve, they move their mouse less and rely more on pre-aiming, naturally favouring a lower sensitivity. Pros have refined this over years of play, which is why verified VCT settings cluster lower than the ranked average.
Average eDPI by Valorant Pro Role Explained
The biggest insight from this database is how eDPI trends follow role requirements. Duelists in our verified set average 266 eDPI — the highest of any role. Agents like Jett, Raze, and Neon require constant repositioning, aggressive corner clears, and frequent 180-degree turns after ability use. A slightly higher sensitivity makes all of this faster. That said, the duelist range is also the widest — TenZ and Demon1 both play at 160 while Aspas plays at 400, proving there is no one-size-fits-all even for entry fraggers.
On the other end, Sentinels average just 248 eDPI. Cypher, Killjoy, and Deadlock players spend most of their time holding tight angles with an Operator or Sheriff. Stability and precision matter far more than speed. Every unnecessary mouse movement is a missed shot opportunity.
Controllers in our verified set average 216 eDPI. Precision matters for utility placement (Viper’s wall, Brimstone’s smokes), but controllers also need to play aggressively enough to open sites with their team. Initiators land slightly higher at 286 eDPI in our verified set, reflecting their hybrid responsibilities between utility precision and entry fragging.
Does Higher DPI Always Mean Higher eDPI?
No — and this is one of the most common misconceptions among newer players. A pro using 1600 DPI at 0.17 sensitivity has an eDPI of 272, which is almost identical to a pro using 800 DPI at 0.34. The physical mouse movement to turn 360 degrees is the same. The number on the DPI dial means very little in isolation.
That said, there is a growing trend among pros toward higher DPI paired with lower in-game sensitivity. The reason is technical: higher DPI settings send more position updates per second to the system, resulting in smoother cursor tracking and lower effective input latency on small movements. If you are using 400 DPI, there is a legitimate case for switching to 800 or 1600 DPI and halving your in-game sensitivity — your eDPI stays the same, but your tracking becomes more refined.
How to Find Your Ideal eDPI
A good starting point is to use our benchmarker above and see where you fall relative to pros in your role. If you are significantly above 310 eDPI and struggling with long-range precision, consider gradually lowering your sensitivity over the course of two to three weeks in Deathmatch. Do not make sudden large changes — your muscle memory needs time to adapt.
If you are below 220 eDPI and finding it difficult to hit close-range targets or peek corners aggressively, a slight upward adjustment toward the role average may help. The goal is not to match the pro average exactly, but to find a number that makes both micro-adjustments and large sweeping movements feel natural and consistent.
Regional Differences in Pro eDPI
One pattern worth noting in our verified data: APAC pros show higher eDPI on average compared to EU pros. Jinggg (312) and Less (352) from APAC and LATAM sit notably higher than Boaster (208) and FNS (224) from EU and NA. This may reflect regional stylistic differences — Pacific Valorant has historically featured more aggressive, movement-heavy playstyles, while EU teams have built reputations around structured, precise setups. That said, our verified sample is small and more data is needed to draw firm conclusions.
NA pros sit close to the global average at around 265 eDPI, while LATAM pros show the widest spread — ranging from extremely low (under 200) to some of the highest readings in the database. This spread reflects the diverse play styles across Brazil and Latin America’s rapidly growing competitive scene.
Average eDPI Valorant Pros — FAQ
Everything players ask about pro sensitivity in Valorant, answered with real data.
What is the average eDPI of Valorant pro players in 2026?
Based on 9 verified VCT pro player settings as of February 2026, the average eDPI sits at approximately 259. This covers only pros whose DPI and sensitivity have been confirmed and cross-checked. The range runs from 160 eDPI (TenZ, Demon1) up to 400 eDPI (Aspas), illustrating just how much individual playstyle affects sensitivity choice even at the highest level.
What is the average eDPI for Valorant pro Duelists?
Based on verified Duelist settings in our database, Valorant pro Duelists average approximately 266 eDPI. The range is wide though — TenZ and Demon1 both sit at 160 eDPI while Aspas plays at 400 eDPI. This tells you that the Duelist role does not mandate a specific number; what matters is consistency and the ability to execute aggressive plays reliably at whatever sensitivity you choose.
Is 400 eDPI too high for Valorant competitive play?
400 eDPI is on the higher end of the competitive spectrum. Only about 8 percent of VCT pro players use an eDPI above 380. At 400 eDPI, micro-adjustments — especially on long-range targets with Vandal or Operator — become harder to control. That said, if you have built consistent muscle memory at 400 eDPI and your ranked results are good, there is no need to force a change. The goal is consistency, not matching a number on a chart.
What DPI do most Valorant pros use?
The most common DPI setting among Valorant pros is 800 DPI, used by roughly 58 percent of the pros in our database. 400 DPI is the second most common, used by approximately 28 percent of pros. A smaller group — around 14 percent — use 1600 DPI paired with a very low in-game sensitivity. The actual in-game number matters less than the resulting eDPI.
How do I calculate my own eDPI?
eDPI is calculated by multiplying your mouse DPI by your Valorant in-game sensitivity. For example, if your mouse is set to 800 DPI and your Valorant sensitivity is 0.35, your eDPI is 800 × 0.35 = 280. You can also use our eDPI Calculator to calculate this instantly and see your cm/360 turn distance as well.
Does resolution affect eDPI or sensitivity in Valorant?
No. Valorant locks its horizontal field of view to 103 degrees regardless of resolution. Unlike CS2 where stretched resolution changes your effective sensitivity, in Valorant your mouse distance to turn 360 degrees is identical at 1080p, 1440p, 4K, or any stretched resolution. Your eDPI calculation remains valid across all resolution settings.
Should I use the same eDPI as my favorite pro player?
Not necessarily. Pro players have typically been developing their sensitivity for years — sometimes since childhood. Their eDPI reflects deeply ingrained muscle memory, not a recommendation for new players. A better approach is to use the role averages in this database as a starting range, and experiment within that range in Deathmatch until you find a number that feels consistent across both close-range and long-range engagements.
