In Counter-Strike 2 (CS2), pressure builds fast. A late-round retake. A narrow angle held for seconds that feel longer than they should. This is where you feel the fire, and where control makes the difference.
At PGL Cluj-Napoca 2026, Nikola “NiKo” Kovač competed with his signature gear from the Razer | NiKo Collection, relying on equipment tuned to match his precision-driven playstyle. In CS2, fire is not chaos. It is controlled aggression. It is repeatable mechanics under pressure. It is trusting that your mouse and surface respond exactly as expected when the tempo rises.
The Razer | NiKo Collection leans heavily into design details that longtime fans will immediately recognize. The metallic grey base keeps it clean and composed, reflecting NiKo’s calm, calculated style, while the flame accents add that burst of intensity. You’ll also spot subtle Desert Eagle cues woven into the look, alongside NiKo’s signature and a refined crosshair detail.
Here’s a closer look at the setup behind that control, and how the right CS2 mouse and mouse mat combo supports precision at the highest level of play.
Behind the Setup: NiKo’s Foundation of Precision
At the highest level of CS2, consistency is essential. Precision begins with how reliably your gear translates movement into on-screen accuracy.
For NiKo, that foundation starts with the Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro NiKo Edition.
Built on the iconic ergonomic shape trusted by millions, it fits the natural curve of the hand for a relaxed grip, supporting steadier micro-adjustments and precise crosshair control. Combined with cutting-edge performance features, it’s the go-to choice for players seeking elite precision, speed, and unwavering consistency in every match.
That precision continues across the Razer Gigantus V2 Pro NiKo Edition, a large mouse mat selected for its smooth, consistent glide. Its micro-textured cloth surface delivers a balanced blend of speed and stopping power, allowing quick directional changes while maintaining control for fine corrections.
Together, the Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro NiKo Edition and Razer Gigantus V2 Pro NiKo Edition form a cohesive CS2 setup built around comfort, control, and precision.
Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro NiKo Edition — Precision Tuned for Every Flick
In CS2, mouse settings are not just preferences. They directly influence crosshair placement, recoil control, and reaction timing.
The Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro NiKo Edition comes preloaded with NiKo’s preferred configuration: 2000 Hz polling rate and 1600 DPI. While the mouse supports up to 8000 Hz, NiKo opts for 2000 Hz for a perfect balanced combination of responsiveness and tracking stability, a setup that complements his controlled, precision-focused playstyle. Meanwhile, 1600 DPI gives NiKo refined sensitivity without feeling overly reactive, allowing for controlled adjustments and consistent crosshair placement during long CS2 sessions.
Powered by Razer Focus Pro 45K Optical Sensor Gen-2 and Razer HyperPolling wireless performance, the Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro NiKo Edition delivers low-latency tracking designed to keep hand movement closely aligned with on-screen response.
Weighing just 57 g, the lightweight design of the Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro NiKo Edition supports fast transitions while helping reduce fatigue over extended play. Quick flicks, rapid sprays, and tiny micro-adjustments also feel effortless thanks to its super responsive optical switches. Even better, with up to 150 hours of battery, it keeps up with long CS2 sessions, ranked grind, or tournaments.
Razer Gigantus V2 Pro NiKo Edition — The Surface of Precision
Precision doesn’t stop at the mouse. The Razer Gigantus V2 Pro NiKo Edition features a custom-woven, micro-textured surface handpicked by NiKo to complement his style of competitive CS2 play.
Optimized for optical sensors, it supports consistent tracking whether executing wide-angle arm movements or fine wrist adjustments. With an optimized size of 500 × 480 mm surface area, this large gaming mouse mat provides ample room for lower sensitivity settings and broader swipes. For CS2 players who rely on controlled, sweeping movements, that space allows for smoother transitions without running out of surface.
Designed with competitive environments in mind, the Razer Gigantus V2 Pro NiKo Edition is rollable, warp-resistant, and engineered to lay flat consistently on the desk. This ensures a smooth and dependable glide across the surface, helping players refine their aim with consistency.
The Perfect Pair for Competitive Play
In CS2, success isn’t just about flashy plays. It’s about reliability and precision. Together, the Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro NiKo Edition and Gigantus V2 Pro NiKo Edition create a competitive CS2 setup built for precision and consistency in every match. The mouse delivers precise tracking and high-frequency reporting while the mouse mat provides a stable, balanced surface that supports both speed and accuracy.
In CS2, harnessing the fire is not about dramatic plays alone. It is about reliability across every round. When your gear responds exactly as expected, confidence grows, and consistency follows.
