Remember kids. When playing against folks who aren't as good at a game as you, that's the time to either practice dumb silly shit or use the weapons you don't normally use.
Like, unless yall are labbing, it really sucks the air out of the room to dominate everyone.
Exactly what I'm trying to teach my kids.
When playing with people, the goal is for them to want to play with you again, not just to win. Put the worst people on your team and teach them to be better, and go after the better players on the other team, leaving the worse players to your teammates. Or as you said, goof off a bit, or give yourself handicaps (e.g. have to "tag up" to your base between kills, can only use one weapon, etc).
If everyone goes home happy, then it's a success. Leave the fierce competition for tournaments.

Expecting online gamers to have grave, a bold move Cotton
I introduced by young nephews to Mario Kart. They were too bad at the game to race so we played battle mode instead. I've let them fight each other as I hung back and practiced drifting around the map, only to intervene whenever one of them was getting a little too cocky.
Didn't work for me. I played with the most awkward weapons I could manage anyways, and if there's one thing I sucked at, it was putting myself in the blast-radius of my own grenades and such. Just knowing how to strafe and melee was OP 30 years ago.
