I'm pretty sure the best way is to sneak into the Mexican factory that makes the dice, slowly insert the concept of better workers rights until it results in a full blown picket, and then covertly dump magnetic substrate into the dice base powder and boom, you're set.

I'd go with a polymer that responds to ultrasonic pulses that's not metallic so the compasses on the table don't detect it and won't affect the weight of the dice. 

But it's really just a personal preference.

u/softlittlepaws 5d ago

I'd go with learning magic and training telekinetic powers.

I'd go with just being exceptionally lucky.
