[Order/Faith]

Was just pummelled by an awesome deck and just had to share (owners' name not published coz I don't know if he wants the fame/infamy)

Unsure of the quantities but the memorable and damaging cards were:
> Venezia, San Polo district which was rotated with 2 x Palazzo Library and meant that he constantly eliminated my sites
> Mysterious Stranger, Doomsday, Divine Intervention and He Who Is Without Sin so that I wasn't able to get new cards
> Malfatto who put Mysterious Stranger back into his hand only for it to come out and destroy the new card that would pop up
> Quick Study so they could access whatever card they needed

Awesome deck...am wondering what the chink in the armour is...

Rush agents with all agents played on first day

Yeah would be too slow against speed decks. Plus counter decks but I guess discard takes care of that somewhat. I've been meaning to play a palazzo deck, will give it a shot

I like the palazzo/venezia combo. Classic. Sounds like a nice deck.

I played a Malfatto/Stranger deck recently but without Venezia/Palazzo in it. It's not as good as the Citizen were... and requires lots of ressources.
That said, sites were not really the issue. Fragile combo, lack of ressources, etc...

Curious to see a deck list that works with that.

Actually, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that malfetto/stranger combo 6 gold a turn with the right cards? Is that a lot to ask for locking discard? Gonna try it myself is if it works out. If it does it's gonna suck for everyone

I've been hit with Malfatto/stranger twice now and it comes down to a bit of luck against my deck. I play a deck with no agents and stocked with some good counters (untimely ends (x5), court order (x3 but working on full stock) , lassitude (x1 so far) and preemptive strike but if my opponent gets out the Malfatto/stranger combo then it's curtains!
Tuism- only costs 3 to use malfetto's ability
