Yeah this doesn't sound viable at all, EXCEPT!

I was beating Sezul on the first day and trying to farm cards from him. I was whooping his butt (if I do say so myself) consistently with a deck I built around his rules to bait him into positions that gave me a good chance to win. Then the day after the patch, I saw the post in General Discussion outlining the "90% chance rate to beating him" by using that starter deck set-up and the same moves every time...

I won 5/50 with that set-up. Near the bottom of his post he says that the strategy basically goes FUBAR if the NPC plays Biggs/Wedge at the bottom middle square to flip your dodo. Sezul flipped my dodo with Biggs/Wedge at the bottom every single time. My 5 wins only came when Sezul started off, and he followed the script outlined (which he doesn't do for me very frequently at all).

I began to wonder if he remembered me whooping him with a slightly better deck, and using my own reactive strategy as opposed to baiting him with the same move every single time. Obviously this sounds ridiculous lol. I went back to my own strategy and my good deck and continued whooping his butt
