#10 in HLTV Top 20 Players of 2013 (Natus Vincere). These are GuardiaN's CS:GO settings from 2014-07, the closest to 2013 we found that can be converted, with the DPI and resolution from 2016-12-13. Source confidence: medium.
The crosshair is from his own config of July 2014, the closest to 2013 found. Liquipedia's table from June 2015 lists a similar one as style 4: size 2, thickness 1, gap 0, green, alpha 255.

Full config 2 parts
Download .cfgThe CS2 console can reject a pasted line longer than 510 characters, so the full config comes in parts: press ~ in CS2, paste part 1, press Enter, then do the same with the next part. Or download the .cfg, save it in Counter-Strike Global Offensive/game/csgo/cfg/ and run exec guardian-2013 in the console.

How the date is known
A config.cfg written by GuardiaN's game, from setup.gg's archive. It has engine_no_focus_sleep and cl_radar_square_with_scoreboard (added 23 Jul 2014) but not cl_crosshairgap_useweaponvalue (added 1 Aug 2014), so it was saved between those dates. Its cl_crosshairstyle is 6, which is not one of the styles the game listed (0 to 5), but it is in the game's own alphabetical list of settings, so the game accepted and saved it.

How the date is known
From setup.gg's profile for GuardiaN (data.yml), published on 13 Dec 2016 and not changed since. It doesn't say when the values were collected, so this is the latest possible date. Its sensitivity, 1.3, is the same as in the July 2014 config.

DPI is only taken from a source that lists the same sensitivity, so the eDPI matches the sensitivity shown. The other parts can come from configs of different dates, as listed.
