It’s not a requirement that you play on or around 48cm. To determine your current mouse sensitivity, or to figure out what settings you would need to use to reach a particular cm/360, enter your mouse DPI and your sensitivity into this calculator.

This is considerably lower than a game like Overwatch where the average is 33cm with the heroes being highly mobile and maps having plenty of verticality and flank routes players typically require higher sensitivities to keep up with the aiming demands. The current average mouse sensitivity of professional Valorant players is 48cm/360, where it takes 48cm of real-life movement to perform a 360 spin in-game. With almost no verticality, predictable enemy positions, and an extremely fast time to kill, professional players have adopted the use of low sensitivities. The unique aiming requirements of Valorant allow players to exploit particular mouse sensitivities and use slower mousepads to great effect.
