I indeed can beat most false gods with rol hope, reaching an average win ratio of 40% now. (heck and sometimes EMed thanks to early hope up/sanctuarity).
Money wise you stay stable, but you "earn" upgraded cards. (Heck and it seems perfect for morning glory, the best fg for cards - only time I ever lost was when he had 2 fire pillars in start hand, and played 1 new glory for the next 5 turns AND my hand was full of dragons/fractals so fractalling yielded too few RoLs).
