Marylene's Fallacy is rather straightforward in what it does; a massive amount of critical strike multiplier in exchange for 40% less critical strike chance.
Note the less critical strike chance modifier will affect effects that override base critical strike chance like TrypanonTrypanon Great MalletTwo Hand Mace Physical Damage: 43-88 Critical Strike Chance: 100.00% Attacks per Second: 0.62 Weapon Range: 1.3 metresRequires Level 40, 131 Str30% increased Stun Duration on Enemies50% reduced Attack Speed This Weapon's Critical Strike Chance is 100%"Though ingenius instruments have been found, it seems surgery before thaumaturgy was not so delicate." - Icius Perandus, Antiquities Collection, Item 3546, but effects that always causes a crit such as in Lightning TendrilsLightning TendrilsCritical, Spell, AoE, Lightning, Channelling Level: (1-20) Cost: (1-5) Mana Cast Time: 0.23 sec Critical Strike Chance: 6.00% Effectiveness of Added Damage: 130% AoE Radius: 22While you channel this skill, it releases pulses of electrical energy, dealing lightning damage in a semicircular area in front of you.Deals (1-75) to (6-1420) Lightning Damage Releases a Stronger Pulse every 3 Pulses Stronger Pulses always Critically Strike Base radius is (2.4-3.1) metres

The breakeven point in critical strike multiplier for a character to match the increased damage grated by Marylene's Fallacy alone at an equal critical strike chance is at a critical strike multiplier of 274% (150% base + 124% additional critical strike multiplier).
In every case where your critical strike multiplier before equipping Marylene's Fallacy is higher than 460% (150% base + 310% additional) using Marylene's Fallacy is a loss of opportunity as you have to invest massively into critical strike chance. Unless you are overcapped on crit chance prior to equipping Marylene's Fallacy, its use will decrease overall damage.
This, however is changed when Critical Strike Luck from Dance with Death is applied.
With a base 100% critical strike chance, the critical strike chance with Marylene's Fallacy is 84%, following the Luck formula.
(2*0.6)-(0.6^2)=0.84=84%
Marylene's Fallacy combined with Luck is most effective when your pre-Marylene's critical strike chance is between 50%-80%.
As the tables below show, using Luck is extremely beneficial for Marylene's Fallacy, but tapers of as critical strike chances approaches 100% or when your other sources of Critical Strike Multiplier is high.

[Undocumented This change was not documented by any official sources. It was discovered through player testing or datamining.][2]
All sources of increased Critical Strike Multiplier have been changed to additional Critical Strike Multiplier. This change brings the functionality in line with how most players think it works.
Because of this, all items, passives and some skills/support gems that used to have increased Critical Strike Multiplier are now 33% less effective on players, despite having the same value. A number of these have been adjusted in value to maintain similar effectiveness.
Divine Orbs are required to update the following to their new values: All craftable Jewel mods which grant Critical Strike Multiplier, Facebreaker, Marylene's Fallacy, Fragment of Eternity (the Descent: Champions Unique), Bino's Kitchen Knife, Romira's Banquet, Shadows and Dust, Ungil's Harmony, Eclipse Solaris, Death's Harp, Mortem Morsu, The Goddess Scorned and Abyssus.
