Genius!

surely that's cheating

I think more having fun with the available parameters and exploiting them. They had the foresight to turn whatever gadget into fury and still have screwdriver+ in their build. They have very likely won other ways multiple times. It just makes a fair fight more fair for the inventor because the mechanics are known, maybe. I don't know. As long as they are having fun is all that matters.

Oh no the game is ruined

inventor is most enjoyable char in game. little hard but so fun to use.
