Published: 2026-02-24 · 6 min read · Server

Required Plugins

You need SourceMod and Metamod installed first. Then, download the CS2 Multi-1v1 plugin from GitHub (make sure it's the CS2 branch, usually a port).

Map Cycle

1v1 servers use am_ prefix maps. Common ones:

  • am_redline
  • am_skyline_v2
  • am_mustard

Configuration

Edit cfg/sourcemod/multi1v1.cfg to set round times, weapon preferences (AK/M4/AWP rounds), and ranking system toggles.
