Here's my guide on not only how to win alot of matches, but to earn 60-70k a day in doing so.

Get bfr.
Personally If you want to earn the most, obviously you have to get bfr++ so you can use it every single sg, but bfr Is still a good start.
All the rest of the kits I would recommend would be miq or cc. They aren't necessarily though, but some times you might get unlucky during the cornucopia and won't be able to retrieve swords.

Loot Runs.
Try developing runs from spawn and finding and remembering where each loot is and the best route to get them.

PC.
Make sure your pc has 60+ fps. When you have speed 2 and str 2, one swing of the sword that misses is usually game over. I am on windows vista (sucks, I know) and I get 60-80 fps with optifine.

Change your video settings to have Particles: All
There are alot, I mean ALOT of spy's out there. And They will wreck your face. Unless you know how to see particles well and use F5 mode efficiently. You should double-tap F5 mode every once In a while if you feel like someone might try to be chasing or sneaking up on you.

Get good at PvP.
If you want for any of this to matter, you have to get good at pvp. Personally, I find <Mod Edit> server's the best (hopefully this isn't considered advertising) and practice your sword and bow skills there for however long you need too.

Examine your opponents.
You might start noticing the other donors in the game, and pay attention to when people kill you, and how. Everybody has weakness's. It's your job to find them and take advantage of it. Here's a hypothetical one, Let's say That I know that Bob is a spy/buffer. (Scary combo) Bob Is in sg 2 with me, and I pick up an iron chest-plate from corn so he targets me. Now you have 2 options. Find a good (preferably a high place, reachable only by ladders) hiding places. Or make sure he's following you and see him in F5 mode and unexpectedly turn around and 1 bang him with str. That's a great counter.

Use Dem Buffs
You probably want to use speed 2 soon or right after the cornucopia.
Use Str 2 if you know you'll be in combat soon, or there is alot of people close by and you want to wreck face.
Use Regen 2 if your going into combat or you taken alot of damage and want a quicker heal, or directly after combat if you see another person neary.
Use Health 2 during the middle of combat to regen back to full hearts. If you know how to use it, This is vital to beating an equally armed fight.

Picking Them Off
To start off with, ask yourself which are you better at. Swords or Bows? Then use these helpful techniques.
1. Swords. Strafing. Learn it. Strafing is basically twisting and turning around the opponent and being able to in a sense confuse the opponent and minimize the damage you take. Also, keep in mind if your 1 block below the opponent's ground level, you have a bigger hitbox and you can hit him , but he can't hit you. Useful during some certain fights. Also, If a bowsman is across the field, don't LERRROOOOOY JENNNNKIIINNNSS it. "dance" to your opponent, by curving and swurving to your opponent's direction, confusing the bowsman and most likely making those bow shots miss.
2. Bows. Although both are awesome, there's nothing better than getting a cross-map snipe to end the game. And that's why I like bows. Here's some tips. Power 1 Flame 1 is worse than Power 3 in most situations, unless yur chasing the opponent without speed 2, and fire will be annoying and most likely stop him from sprinting and escaping. Same for swords. Get the high ground, and If a swordsman is coming at you at lower ground, try bow spamming or switch to sword. If you have higher ground, Pick him off with little ease.

Hotbar:
1. Sword
2. Bow
3. Strength 2 pot
4. Speed 2 pot
5. Splash Health 2
6. Splash Health 2
7. SPlash Regen 2
8. Splash Regen 2
9. Golden Apples/Food

To earn the 70k, I spent like 3-4 hours a/day playing sg.

Now go wreck some face!

Want me to add anything! Let me know!

 

You can do it without with a certain set of skill, but It's risky and this provides the easier path.

 

Added section "Picking them off" Thanks for the reminder!

 

Today's Haul:

 

That's the truly unfortunate part, I consider myself pretty skilled PvP wise and SG, but before I got donator I only got one win out of 40. 39 of those were because I got one banged by a buffer

 

Geez, you simply don't understand. Ofcourse I can be great without kits, but not when others have kits. It's only to counter. This game should be named Survival Kits, as it revolves around it.

 

I understand i was cocky recently and I'm avoiding that now and realized my mistake.

 

I would gwet it but I'm broke just lost 120k in lottery, to ECC's Global Chat's pleasure.
