Full config 3 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 jw-2013 in the console.

How the date is known
A config.cfg written by JW's game, from setup.gg's archive. Its competitive map list includes Cache, which first came to Competitive with Operation Bravo on 19 Sep 2013, and it lacks the cl_crosshair_dynamic_* settings added on 12 Feb 2014, so it was saved between those dates.

How the date is known
From setup.gg's profile for JW (data.yml), published on 13 Dec 2016; its sensitivity, 2.3, is the same as in the 2013 config. The profile still lists him at fnatic, which he left on 15 Aug 2016 (Liquipedia), so the values may be older.

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.
