Most of all, SHOW THE PLAYER NAMES IN MATCH SO WE CAN REPORT THEM TO YOU. Heck, you could even have a bot patrolling your servers 'watching' matches to see if anything out of the ordinary (eg someone gaining an insane amount of multiple resources from 1 card in a way impossible in normal circumstances). If it is a hack (rather than a false positive) banhammer them for ToS violation. Then, if they find problem cards, have the update send the details back to you.

You know, make a patch that, when loaded, searches player's saved decks to see if they have any cards that don't exist. Please just do an inventory sweep and be done with it: This kind of stuff ruins it for everyone. Popcap, I know you guys want to keep this game 'kid friendly' by not having much in the way of social stuff but, come on. The * isn't even that good, I ended up forcing him to use the cheating card TWICE before he beat me and I was just using a slap-dash Sunflower shroom deck. The card gives him full health, +20 brains, and a full hand (the card image was even just the word 'missing' in red text.) HE was playing as a Rustbolt as well. Just fought the same guy as karladdr (if you guys keep records, my account name is 'Infernoraptor' and the match began around 12:15-12:20 PST).
