This won't work forever, because it's already being popularized by youtubers etc, but I've got quite the simple strategy and it's won me many games:
Get a 3-man team
Loot all of your chests
Go to an island with the desert houses (Hopefully, you're on oasis)
Go to the small one
dig a 2x2 trench.
Camp.
Trust me, people WILL fall for it. It's just human nature for unskilled players to charge headfirst when they've got the better gear, thinking that brains don't account for the fighting. I've saved my life from better geared players with this trap. It's ridiculously hilarious, and I want others to try it.
