After Masters Berlin, we all know who Chronicle is. We've seen his insane Sova plays, and we're sure many of you would like to be able to do such things too. If you are one of those people, this article is for you.
Timofey "Chronicle" Khromov from Gambit Esports is one of Valorant's rising stars. He's been in the esports scene since the game's inception, but he really shined at Masters Berlin by securing his team a Valorant Champions (aka Worlds) slot. However, what equipment and settings help him achieve such incredible accuracy? Let's look a little deeper into it!
- Chronicle is also our player of the month: Valorant Player of the Month, September 2021: Chronicle

Gambit Chronicle: Keyboard & Mouse Settings
As for keybinds, Chronicle uses the default settings— there are absolutely no changes here. Interestingly, the only player who doesn't use default binds on Team Gambit is nAts! As you can see, you don't need any major tweaks to win a major tournament.
His mouse settings are also pretty standard, although a DPI of 800 may seem high for some players. Anyway, take a look for yourself.
| DPI | 800 |
| eDPI | 200 |
| Sensitivity | 0.25 |
| Windows Sensitivity | 6 |
| Scoped Sensitivity | 1 |

| Color | Green |
| Outlines | On - 1 / 1 |
| Center Dot | Off |
| Inner Lines | 1 / 2 / 1 / 2 |
| Outer Lines | All Off |
| Errors | All Off |
Chronicle's crosshair is pretty small, and you can barely see it. All "shaking" effects are turned off, and it's virtually just a small green dot.
