What sensitivity does something use in VALORANT?

something plays VALORANT at 800 DPI with 0.58 in-game sensitivity — an eDPI of 464.00, roughly 28.2 cm per 360°. That puts him in the 96 percentile of the professional distribution we track. His current mouse is the Logitech G Pro X2 SUPERSTRIKE Lunar Eclipse. The 4000 Hz polling rate paired with 464 eDPI is among the most aggressive input combos on this page, and it fits a player who topped the Champions 2025 group stage with a 1.39 rating. Check your own hardware before copying the top half of it.

Frequently asked questions

7 answers
Biography1
Who is something?Biography

Ilya “something” Petrov (born February 11, 2002), a Russian duelist/flex who turned pro in Japan's scene and took Paper Rex's Pacific league title run in 2023 — the signature signing of PRX's two-duelist era.

Career2
What are something's achievements?Career

VCT Masters Toronto 2025 champion and the #1-rated player of the Champions 2025 group stage (1.39 rating, VLR) — plus the streak of 120- and 136-kill games in Japan that forced Paper Rex to sign him.

Did something really rank #1 in two regions?Career

Yes — he reached #1 on the Asian server and top-10 on the NA server within about a month of each other while still playing in Japan's league, briefly drawing anti-cheat investigations that Riot closed without findings.

Settings3
Is something one of the highest-sensitivity pros?Settings

Top-4%, at least: 800 DPI × 0.58 sens = 464 eDPI, the 96th percentile of our 652-player sample. The famous caveat fits his nickname: the same sens that makes him untrackable on a good day punishes him when the gun feel drifts.

Why does something play at 4000 Hz polling?Settings

High-mobility duelists increasingly pair ultra-high DPI-sens with 4000 Hz wireless polling — his G Pro X2 SUPERSTRIKE reports at 4000 Hz, one of only a handful in our database running that rate with sub-30 cm/360 turns.

What crosshair does something use?Settings

A white inner-line crosshair; the verified code is above. His scoped sensitivity (1.115) is slightly raised — a Operator-and-Sheriff quirk for a player who rarely holds angles.

Gear1
What mouse does something use?Gear

The Logitech G Pro X2 SUPERSTRIKE (Lunar Eclipse). It is newer than the Superlight line on tour — so far no other setup in our 656-pro database runs the same shell, which is common for a just-released flagship.

  • Career results, trophies and the official circuit rankings: aggregated from public tournament records through September 2026.
  • Performance statistics: professional matches only — the current sample is 1,317 maps tracked.
  • Prize money: approximate. Individual trackers disagree because they count different event tiers.
  • Where sources conflict, both values are shown rather than one being picked. Default peripheral choices reflect the most recent verified setup.
