What I ended up doing.

Played control. this let me have defined spots to snipe, super, heavy at.

Sniped until I ran out of ammo, switched the last word off to whatever you are most comfortable with. Once I picked up special ammo I would go back to the last word.

If I saw people coming at me while I was sniping I just ran away. keeping people at distance was my friend.

If I had a super or heavy then I made sure to still play conservatively and let people run into my insta-kills.

never be the aggressor and play ultra defensively.

If you are playing a match where you are just getting killed, frustrated, jumping off maps, etc... then use a different weapon. Only play on maps you are comfortable with.

I employed a similar strategy with one difference: basically I would play very conservatively and at a distance with a sniper until I got 2 kills, then I would start playing more aggressively. That way at worst I net 0% at that point. I ended up getting sprees and multi-kills after getting the two kills often enough that I would jump a lot in matches, and in the matches where I couldn't manage that I'd at most lose a couple of percent, if not gain 1 or 2.
