#6 in HLTV Top 20 Players of 2013 (Ninjas in Pyjamas). These are Xizt's CS:GO settings from 2012, the closest to 2013 we found that can be converted, with the resolution from 2015. Source confidence: low.
No crosshair of his dated 2013 was found; this is his own config from late 2012. By November 2014 Liquipedia listed a thinner one (style 4, size 5, thickness 0, gap 0, alpha 255), and his game-written config saved between May 2015 and January 2016 has style 4, size 4, thickness 0 and gap 0, so he may have changed it during 2013 or 2014. Skarbo's third-party CS:GO crosshair generator has a 'NiP Xizt' preset from 13 Dec 2012 with the same size, gap, colour and alpha but style 2 and thickness 1; his own config is used instead.

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 xizt-2013 in the console.

Their DPI isn't documented with this sensitivity. The matcher below assumes 400 DPI, from their setup.gg profile (2016-12-13, where they used sensitivity 3); change it if you know better.

Where these settings come from
- Crosshair · 2012 · confidence low · github.com
How the date is known
Game-written config.cfg (name 'NiP-Xizt-') from setup.gg's archive, the same file as the sensitivity. It has cl_crosshairgap, added 22 Aug 2012, but not cl_crosshairstyle, which the game had by 13 Dec 2012, so it was saved between those dates. Instead of a style it has sfcrosshair 0 (the classic crosshair) and cl_dynamiccrosshair 0 (no widening when moving); style 4 (Classic Static), the style of his later configs, is a mapping choice for that. Whether this crosshair still widened when firing is not documented.

How the date is known
video.txt (1024x768) added to setup.gg's archive on 30 Apr 2016 together with a game-written config.cfg. That config has the reminder setting for the sixth operation (Bloodhound, launched 26 May 2015) but not cl_crosshair_sniper_width, added 20 Jan 2016.
- 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 400 DPI of their setup.gg profile, which lists sensitivity 3; 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.
