I ground through this as a hunter with a blue fusion rifle and blue shotgun, and a void MG. It was hard, and several matches left me further behind then when I started. Key points I learned are as follows:

1. Control is more predictable, but Rumble free for alls have higher kill counts
2. Learn to use the radar to bait people. In team games have someone crouch and someone behind them moving to lure people into range.
3. Don't die. Run away, don't be the first on the objective, use your team as shields. It isn't important to win the match as it is to rack up your void score.
4. Leave your team. If the opposition is crushing you, or people in your team drop out because the other team has a star player, drop out. It isn't worth losing 50-60 void points just to finish out a match. Yeah, this is a jerk move and I hated it, but after losing big in two matches I started doing it. Especially after I ran into the team full of people with pre patch Mythocasts.
5. Ambush people as often as possible. Shotgun camp, keep your fusion rifle charged and wait.
6. Rockets are better for kills, but a good void MG can rack up more then the 2-3 you would get with rockets. Learn to camp heavy weapon ammo spawns.
