The '''EMP Grenade''' is a [[Grenade (Classic)|grenade]] in the classic Team Fortress games. When the timer goes off, it causes all of the ammo that a victim holds to explode, usually causing instant death. Much to that player's dismay, the detonation of their ammo will also damage their teammates in range. It can also detonate stray [[Backpack (Classic)|Backpacks]], causing significant damage to nearby enemies, depending on how much ammo is in the Backpack. It is only used by the [[Engineer (Classic)|Engineer]].
