#3 in HLTV Top 20 Players of 2015 (Team SoloMid). These are device's CS:GO settings from 2014, the closest to 2015 we found that can be converted, with the DPI from 2016-12-13 and the resolution from 2015-04-26. Source confidence: medium.
The game wrote this config.cfg in early 2014; it was later edited by hand. cl_hud_color (a setting added on 1 May 2014, here without the six HUD settings added with it) and cl_showfps were inserted, and interp, rate and fps_max lines were appended at the end. The crosshair and sensitivity lines sit in the game-written, alphabetically sorted part. This crosshair is from his time at Team Dignitas (Liquipedia lists him there from 16 Feb 2014 to 25 Jan 2015), before Team SoloMid. Liquipedia's page from 26 Apr 2015 (revision 119841, unchanged into 2016) lists a different crosshair, style 2, size 2.7, thickness 1, gap -2, green, without a source; its mouse settings, 450 DPI with sensitivity 2.66, also differ from the sensitivity 2.2 of his 2014 config and of his 2016 sources, so it is not used here.

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 device-2015 in the console.

Where these settings come from
- Crosshair, viewmodel, HUD and radar · 2014 · confidence medium · github.com 1, 2
How the date is known
device's config.cfg (name "device )))") from setup.gg's archive. Its game-written part has spec_usenumberkeys_nobinds (added 27 Feb 2014) but not cl_scoreboard_mouse_enable_binding (added 23 Apr 2014), so the game saved it between those dates. Some lines were added by hand later.
- Sensitivity · 2014 · confidence medium · github.com 1, 2
How the date is known
Same config.cfg as the crosshair (sensitivity 2.2, in its game-written part), saved by the game between 27 Feb 2014 (spec_usenumberkeys_nobinds present) and 23 Apr 2014 (cl_scoreboard_mouse_enable_binding missing).
- DPI (same sensitivity) · 2016-12-13 · confidence medium · github.com 1, 2, 3
How the date is known
device's setup.gg profile (data.yml), added on 13 Dec 2016 and unchanged since, lists 400 DPI and 500 Hz with sensitivity 2.2, the same as the config; that is the latest date they can be from. Its team field is astralis, which Liquipedia lists him with from 18 Jan 2016.
- Resolution · 2015-04-26 · confidence low · liquipedia.net 1, 2, 3, github.com 1, 2
How the date is known
Liquipedia's device page lists 1024x768 with black bars in revision 119841 of 26 Apr 2015, three months after he joined Team SoloMid, and still in revision 192000 of 23 Aug 2015; the table cites no source. 1280x960 appears in revision 290472 of 1 Feb 2016, after his move to Astralis, and is what setup.gg's profile (data.yml, added 13 Dec 2016) lists. His resolution when the 2014 config was saved is not known.

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.
