Small Circle

The decision to remove the inner dot and do just a circle works wonders on heroes where I’m supporting the ally.

White works best, as generally, it stands out on my allies' varied color schemes and aesthetics. I don’t need to pop headshots to heal my team; I just need to target them, and this setup works best for me.

On a strategist likeCloak & Dagger, since your attacks with Cloak are as close to auto-lock as possible, removing the dot doesn’t harm your performance, either.

Small Red Dot

The small dot is a classic FPS crosshair setting for players who want precise aim and maximum headshots when playing heroes likeHawkeye.
