This happens pretty often. Karl Jobst has a lot of videos about cheaters, and it’s always interesting to see how many were ridiculously obvious in hindsight. Frequently, people won’t expect a good player to cheat, because “they don’t need to.” But cheating, at thay level, tends to be about saving time waiting for the perfect RNG.

- vikingerik 2y agoThere's observation bias there - the cheaters that we see are the obvious ones, we never know who gets away with it when they got everything to appear perfectly consistent without any telltales. Like even for RNG, it'd be possible to fake that on a real console, with extra hardware writing to the bus. We'd never detect that, all we'd have would be the statistical arguments of like "one in 10^10 tries" or whatever.
