Question

To win my game you must use deception

That may involve my poor perception

My strength and will are just too much

To be conquered by the average touch

If successful, hold no preconception

That hubris will not lead to interception

By an even greater power than mine

Your new troubles will be divine

Deception, in the 1st line, suggests a swindle or transgression of some sort

that may incur divine retribution, as suggested by the 2nd part.

That could take many specific forms; none stand out.

You certainly are hitting the nail on the head, but not into the wood so to speak ;) You got the idea for the first and last lines; there are a couple more key words sprinkled around that should ring some other bells and hopefully create a whole picture.

I'll add a few lines:

In this game I set the first trap

My advantage is lost when I take a nap

No one will help when nobody's to blame

I still keep playing, though never the same

To win my game you must use deception

That may involve my poor perception

My strength and will are just too much

To be conquered by the average touch

If successful, hold no preconception

That hubris will not lead to interception

By an even greater power than mine

Your new troubles will be divine

WOW! LOLZ! Since this answer is so great it counts, but it is not the answer nevertheless. I am really surprised at how well this answer works considering it never even crossed my mind, though maybe it manifested through some sub-conscious means ;)

Since that was such a great guess here's a hint to lead you in another direction:

the answer is fictional and there is a hidden name of one of the players in the riddle

I'll add a few more lines:

You come from a distant land

So you will not perceive my plan

Stealing from me will be your end

But before you, I'll devour your friend

I really like this puzzle:P

This makes me think of those two player card/number games were the purpose is to get a certain number from all the cards. The trick would be that the first person would always win if they follow a certain pattern. (for example, you have a certain amount of cards, you can take 1-3 cards at a time, whoever takes the last card wins/loses)

I hope this is right >.<
