| − | '''My Gaming Edge Mod''' (stylized as '''MGE''' or '''MGE Mod'''), is a competitive training mod developed by [[My Gaming Edge]]. The mod puts two players into a small version of competitive maps such as (the) [[Badlands|cp_badlands]] spire. Players spawn with a buff and fight until one player reaches a set number of kills (usually 20). When an enemy is killed, the health and ammo of both players are restored. <br> | + | '''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 buff, and fight until one player reaches a set number of kills, usually 20. On killing an enemy, health and ammo are restored and given a buff to the player again. 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 method of choice for many players to practice raw DM ability, mostly used by scouts and soldiers. |

| |
| − | MGE is technically a simple 1v1 arena mod. With that said there is many ways to play the mod. The most common battle is [[soldier]] vs [[soldier]]. Though people also like to practice [[scout]], [[demoman]] and [[sniper]]. Other classes are typically frowned upon and are commonly banned on community servers. For example, if someone played as a [[heavy]] they could very easily spawncamp their opponent on Ammomod [MGE] and make it first kill wins the entire game.<br>
| |
| − | | |
| − | *The most popular maps for [[soldier]] are Badlands Middle, Badlands Spire and Ammomod [MGE]. Most active servers in peak times will have these arenas filled, sometimes with queues.<br>
| |
| − | *The most popular maps for [[scout]] are Badlands Middle, Granary Middle, Granary Last, Waste Middle and Viaduct. Though matchups may be found on ammomod [MGE], Snakewater Middle and Process Middle.<br>
| |
| − | *The most popular maps for [[sniper]] are Granary Middle, Granary Last and Waste Middle. Matchups may be found on Badlands Middle and Gullywash Middle but these maps are more often favoured by [[scout]] and [[soldier]] players so it can be hard to play consistently as sniper and win.<br>
| |

| − | Optional and Controversial ways to play<br>
| |
| − | * [[Shotgun]] or [[gunboats]]? - Soldiers will often decide before playing whether to use [[shotgun]] or [[gunboats]] as these items can drastically change the way the game is played. It is common to see [[shotgun]] used on Ammomod [MGE] as the flat surface makes 4 rocket gameplay less enjoyable.<br>
| |
| − | * [[Shotgun]] switching - [[Shotgun]] switching is when a soldier will swap between the [[rocket launcher]] (or [[original]]) and [[shotgun]] between each shot to maximise damage output.<br>
| |
| − | * Alternate weapons - Weapons such as [[Direct Hit]] and [[Loch n Load]] are considered bad manners to use. They make it very unfun to play on maps such as Badlands Spire.<br>
| |
| − | * Running away - The purpose of MGE is to train and get warmed up. People do not like playing against people who run away when they are on low health.<br>
| |
| − | * Counter jumping - Counter jumping is the act of rocket jumping away when a soldier bombs on top of their opponent. This is controversial because in a real game scenario if a [[soldier]] jumps away from their [[medic]] then their [[medic]] will die.<br>
