Minecraft Hunger Games late-game strategy

Solution 1:

I have found that two things can be helpful.

1. A fishing rod can be used to give yourself a split second advantage on running for the cornucopia by using it to slow down others.

2. also, i like to wait on the sides of the clearing around the feast until others come. Then, when they fight each other swoop in and kill the winner of a battle when he is weak. Most people will be wounded from the battle making them easy pickings.

Solution 2:

I play Hunger Games all the time since I got kind of sick of creative and regular survival. I usually hang back and wait for the crowd to thin out, looking for armor and other stuff until I can sneak in and finish some other people off. I don't win all the time, but I have a good average on leader boards for the servers I play on.
