There was no "cheating" both were just simply unaware that Photon Sanctuary Tokens couldn't attack (or if they knew, both completely forgot).

@@Boristien405 I can attest to a Hero deck being easy to learn. I have an Elemental Hero deck that isn't quite Meta, but isn't far off.

Overall they are very fun and easy to get a hold of.

My first thought was Jam Breeding Machine and Wetlands. After watching, it definitely seems like life point gain was the way to go with Cauldron of the Old Man. Of course, the Photon Sanctuary tokens can't attack, and Spell Absorption gains life points when either player uses spells.
