'''MGEMod''' My Gaming Edge Mod, developed by [[My Gaming Edge]], is a training mod which puts two players in a small arena, usually cut out from a popular competitive map, such as the[[Badlands|cp_badlands]] spire. Players spawn with a full buff, and fight until one player reaches a set number of kills. On killing an enemy, health is once more buffed, and weapons are automatically reloaded. The mod itself allows for any map to be used, so long as there are spawn locations for it, though a popular mge_training map is usually used. it is usually the best place to practice your scout and soldier DM and those are usually the only classes being played on MGE servers.
