Reporting Hackers [not a bug] https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=20661.msg262404#msg262404

I think I found a hacker:

wwwwqq

I'm new to the forums and don't know how to report this.

He had a Pegasus that kept getting +6/+1 each turn, without him playing any cards.
And it kept doubling its attack (diving) without the use of quantum or the little wings animation.

He won in five turns because of his one creature.
That's all he put down, one creature until the end of the game, he added a dragon.
And, the final attack was 50 damage, so i believe that the Pegasus hit me double (15 x 2 = 30)
AND the dragon hit me double as soon as he played it (10 x 2 = 20) (30+20=50)

This is not a bug -- your opponent is likely not a hacker. Rather, it's a desync.

1.  Desynch
Symptoms:  Your opponent's deck, cards, health, and quanta keep changing rapidly.  Both players disagree about what happened.
Causes:  Various reasons.  If you lag too much, the computer will take over for you, causing problems on your opponent's end.  There is also a known bug with the PVP system.  By pulling a three man monty, and challenging each other in a triangle, all sorts of no good shenanigans happen.  Other known causes of desynch include voodoo doll shenanigans, playing flying weapon with no weapon in play, using cards that require very repetitious animation, and having a tie game.  Zanz is currently working on fixing this.  If this error occurs, post here. (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,2221.0.html)
See that exclamation mark on the top of your first screenshot? That tells you that something's wrong with the PvP connection and weird things (i.e. desynchs) may happen.
