#5 in HLTV Top 20 Players of 2013 (VeryGames). These are NBK's CS:GO settings from 2014, the closest to 2013 we found that can be converted, with the resolution from 2016-12-13. Source confidence: medium.

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 nbk-2013 in the console.

Their DPI isn't documented with this sensitivity. The matcher below assumes 800 DPI, from their setup.gg profile (2016-12-13, where they used sensitivity 1.55); change it if you know better.

How the date is known
Game-written config.cfg from setup.gg's archive, with the in-game name 'LDLC * NBKTANK-'. It has cl_crosshairgap_useweaponvalue (added 1 Aug 2014) but not the music-volume settings added on 10 Oct 2014, so it was saved between those dates.

How the date is known
setup.gg's profile for NBK (team listed as envyus), published in setupgg/data on 13 Dec 2016 and not changed afterwards. It does not say when the settings were collected, and its sensitivity (1.55) differs from the config's, so its DPI is not used.
- DPI (assumed) · 2016-12-13 · github.com
Why it is assumed
No source lists a DPI with this sensitivity, so the DPI matcher assumes the 800 DPI of their setup.gg profile, which lists sensitivity 1.55; change it on the page if you know better.

No source lists a DPI with this sensitivity, so the DPI matcher's DPI is assumed (see above). The other parts can come from configs of different dates, as listed.
