OK i have a very long complex strategy for map 2 and i really good at it :3
Step 1: locate the big tree at spawn
Step 2: in the opposite side there is a tree with some vines
Step 3: try for a chest then run away from the big tree
Step 4: keep running down the main road until u get to the edge of the map
Step 5: to your right is a chest
Step 6: in the factory about 5 blocks away there is another with lots of mushrooms
Step 7: from where u get that chest u can see another through a wall of glass
Step 8: walk around and get it
Step 9: now for the 4th chest around the corner should be some leaves go up and to the end of them
Step 10: start breaking near the end on the roof of the leaf path and you will find your 5th chest
Step 11: around the corner there's some vines to the roof there is 2 more chests on top
Step 12: 1 building away you will get a 8th chest through some slabs in a building
Step 13: hunt for armor/diamond/ingots that people got from the middle (kill people who got stuff)
Step 14: at night stop hunting and go for the middle
Step 15: wait till the fight is just about over in the middle and kill everyone
Step 16: loot all good stuff leaving anything below 2 tiers of urs in the middle/pit/lava/somewhere
Step 17: only hunt at night for the remaining tributes
TIPS:
1. Try to kill people with good armor but bad weaponry
2. Kill them even if they don't have a weapon or armor for food
3. Look for iron ingots/diamond/sticks DIAMOND AND IRON SWORDS WIN GAMES!!!
4. If u at least get some gold armor mixed with leather and a stone/iron/diamond sword you probably will win
5. Even if u have really bad gear (wooden sword with leather pants) STILL GO FOR THE MIDDLE ALL THE GOOD STUFF IS THERE AND YOU WONT WIN WITHOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!
I hope this helped if you want my advice on the first map ill gladly give it to u
