butters is right in clothing. you don't need to gear up, i sometimes wear short sleeve shirts. yeah they hurt when you get hit but you want to be freely comfortable in your movements.

there's a few types of strategy games you'll probably play. i think it's rare for a free for all. capture the flag is the biggest, or defender/offender. cover the satellite, make sure no one hits it; that sorta thing.

i've found that in larger ares, people don't often rush when in a fire fight. you'll go back and forth, you shoot he ducks, he shoots you duck. when it's your turn to shoot just book it ot the other side of his object and keep firing. eventually you'll get a hit. not a lot o fpeople expect someone to go rambo on them so it works to your advantage.

another thing i've found to work is when you're in a firefight both using objects for cover, it's typical shoot a bunch, he ducks, you shoot a bunch, he ducks, etc. instead of that set yourself up so you aren't in the original position you've been in as he's been trying to hit you. angle yourself so you're barely showing but you can get a shot off. wait for him to peer out and he'll set himself up to shoot you when you're supposed to pop back out. take a shot and make sure it's a hit.

i play larger fields, so these might not work in speedball.

wear pink so you can wipe hits off easier.
