I want this deck to be competitive, I really do. It is good enough to win most games 8 or 9 out of 10... but not against strong decks, (although it can win with the right draw, and is hecka fun to play)
This deck owes its existence to Strange Feeling by Mana, and the fact that I still only have two Borgia Towers. Essentially it is the kid brother of that deck.

5 Heathen Follower (lynchpin card) [resource boost, agent draw, rush]
5 Mysterious Stranger [resource boost, discard, early score]
3 Divine Intervention [resource boost, discard]
5 Papal Influence [score]
3 Ancestral Discovery [card advantage]
[purple]Media[/purple]
3 Dama Rosa [resource boost, rush]
5 Art Gallery [score]
3 Clothes Make the Man [double your score cards or steal draw]
5 Magnetic Personality [score, agent control]
4 Role Reversal [stall site decks long enough to win]
1 Copy Cat [double your score cards or steal ??]
3 Man of the People [score]
[yellow]Merchant[/yellow]
5 Ercole Massimo [agent rush]
This is a rush deck. First build up your resources and army with Heathen, then explode for the finish. Kill off a few big cards with discard while you are at it, and try and bring any site to a score of 5, to finish with Papal. Heathen + Stranger is an excellent opening hand, dropping Heathen first and Stranger right after the timer crosses the edge.
The numbers are haphazard because of my card pool. I have very few rares at 5. I would certainly add more Clothes. I started with Artist but switched to Ercole to hit those 5s more often.
You can spam Clothes/Ancestral in a pinch, but the biggest mistake I make is thinking this is a discard deck. Don't fall into that trap.
