I too can confirm there are many people using a cheat mod system. 99.9% of the time you can tell because they delay the start of the game. I've had games where my deck is literally 70% lands and in those games I draw nothing but creatures and then in other games I only have about 30% lands and I draw nothing but lands. WotC isn't doing anything about it as I have reported multiple people. One guy I have played 3 times. All 3 times he used the same deck and played the exact same cards. Interesting how you play the exact same cards, every single time. I just played a guy that played some lands and I had him down to 8 life. He played a Millenium Counter card which doesn't do anything except double the amount of millenium counters on that card until it gets to 1000. That's it. Nothing for planeswalkers or creatures. Then he played 2 planeswalkers cards and they both came out with 12 loyalty counters on them and they come standard with 5. Amazing how that happens. Then he had nothing giving any of his creatures +1/+1 counters. NOTHING. Yet the ability of the one planeswalker let him create 5 4/4 white angel creature tokens. Ok, no problem. He used it and it created 10 and they were all 30/30.
Another good example, I played my deck of 230 cards. it has 70 lands. I started my game with 2 lands, 2 creatures and 3 enchantment cards. For the next 9 turns, I drew nothing but lands, he had kill cards to destroy both my creatures and then he magically got out an hourglass coven and 2 savage gorgers. I used my 2 enchantments on the savage gorger and the hourglass coven, but the damage was done. I had nothing.
The other way of cheating is exploits. Exploiting is a way of cheating. It is stated in the rules of MTG and looping is specifically stated as not allowed. So people playing marauding blight priest and then exquisite blood with another card (can't remember the name) card are looping an infinite effect where When they gain life, target opponent loses a life and when an opponent loses life, you gain that much life. That's called looping for you cheaters and it is cheating.
Again with looping, using Peregrin took, Experimental Confectioner and Witch's Oven to create an infinite number of 1/1 rats. Literally you sacrifice 3 food tokens and create 3 1/1 rat tokens. Then for every creature entering the battlefield, they create 1 food token. So it's literally sacrifice 3 food, create 3 1/1 rats, create 3 food tokens and repeat. That's looping.
Using the one card, (Can't remember the name again) to untap all tapped permanents you control whenever you cast a spell and then playing a ton of blue cards to draw almost your entire deck, so you have infinite mana and an infinite number of cards to play, is cheating.
I reported a player for cheating and here is the awesome message I got back from Wotc:

Here is a prime example. This entire game, I couldn't get one extra land out. Yet he was able to get all of this out and 2 of the equipments attached to the one creature cost 2 mana to attach to target creature. They were on another creature and I destroyed that creature. So he had to pay them to get them on the creature they were on. However previously he had played 3 creatures and used all of his mana. So he had none left. How did he manage to spend 4 mana he didn't have to attach equipment to a creature?
And another one. So in the opening hand, you're going to tell me he got out Grima Wormtongue, Shalai Voice of Plenty, Sheoldred to destroy my one creature I had out and then a card to take that one creature and give it to himself and all in only 4 turns of the game. And he's not cheating?
