I did work out a Dune deck with mass CC for one three-pronged reason: I've faced Spike several times and always tended to use Fractal decks. The times he's been close to beating me have been with Dune decks with RT for CC, but it's only been close. He's a smart guy, so I reasoned he'd realize he needed to pack a third component to be able to beat a Fractal deck. I reasoned it would either be QC or mass CC, but when I took a look at CP Dune builds I noticed he could use both. I wasn't sure if he'd use BE and RT or Pande at first, but with extensive testing only Pande tipped it over the edge to win. There were still tweaks I wanted to make, but I ran out of time.
There were many decks I'd tweak if I had the time, but I only had the last day and a half of the rounds to deckbuild. I did, however, have the week to theorycraft since I could do that much at work at least (I work out in the field all day). In round 2 I built a few decks, but only 1 of them worked as intended; the devtal. The RoL/Hope against Cal was a failure on my part. Some of the MA's were shots in the dark, and I wasn't confident about the one vs Life since a stallier Adrenastaff could've won, but with Life's tendency to pack only one of each shield I took the risk. The only one that was really predictable was Gravy's zap-proof Dishole since it's always a priority choice if it's alive. Grabbows against Darkness and Light were also shots in the dark, which was initially true for all Darkness and Death matchups; they remain trickier to predict. Round 3 and 4, especially 3, could've easily been 4-2's, or a repeat of round 2 with bad RNG.
If I had wanted to cheat, I naturally wouldn't do it through board access changes since they log in the admin log, and if I would've had to, I would've purged the admin log. I would've used a VPN or proxy when logging on to a different account to access boards, and it wouldn't be The Oracle since Admins have the password to that (which is why I used it to see what boards it had gained access to). Thirdly I would've made sure we had done well in round 2 as well (at least 4-2) since this bug occurred before round 2, and I would've changed several decks if I had prior knowledge (Guardtal to Vamptal due to no RoF, changes to RoL/Hopes, Psiontal vs Earth, rushier Grabbows, Chargetal vs Light, bigger Sancstall and so on). And lastly I wouldn't repeatedly go for 6-0 since it's suspicious.
Regardless, I've changed the password of The Oracle account and the bug should not occur again. If the community no longer trusts me, I will resign since the Admin position is one of service to the users.
