I just started dropping at the edge of Wailing Woods (Tomato Town-side), and farmed at least 500+ wood, and at least 500+ stone from the small hill nearby, then went off into the game with no weapons. (Anywhere really would work, just lots of materials here and not a popular spot)
That's the key here - no weapons. Keep farming stuff until you find someone, let them start playing aggressive on you, then build your way to safety. Since you don't have the option to shoot them on the ground, you're forced to outbuild them - make your goal to waste their materials, as well as their time. If they die in the storm with you, even better (or maybe i'm just a bad person).
This is surprisingly fun, and really effective at building up your skills. It only took me about 10 games of doing this to noticeably increase my building speed and efficiency, and I still even now throw in a game like this every once in a while - it's genuinely fun, and you can get some funny kills from editing people out so they drop, and sometimes people will just fall on their own which is pretty hilarious as well.
This really helped because while I was a mid-level player, I found that i'd either kill people on the ground using hardly any building, or i'd get immediately outbuilt and killed within 10 seconds. There weren't many opportunities to practise build battles against evenly skilled players. By having no offensive options or guns, your only focus is on getting that high ground. Since other players are looking for shots on you while that's happening, their pure build speed is hampered, and your pure build speed is quicker than if you were trying to shoot at the same time, if that makes sense. It evens up skill differences in building a fair bit.
Hope this can help at least someone out there, it really did work for me!
