It's a team effort of the MSM community.


 * A few people (such as me, Eric Sweep and a couple others) have found certain patterns among previous Epic Monsters, that greatly reduces the possible combinations.
 * Lots (hundreds) of people try various combinations, and when they find the right one, they post an image of it, that quickly circulate on facebook groups, twitter, forums and imageboards.
 * People that work on the wiki keeps a close watch on these various places and update the wiki as soon as the combinations are found.

The first few Epics took many hours or up to a day, to find all combinations. Nowadays, all combinations are typically found within 15 minutes of release.
