Extort the Dead

This deck used to be completely focused on extort. After realizing that the deck had a difficult time in 1v1, I replaced some extort with some other synergies, defense, and offense.

I like to think of High Priest of Penance and Gravecrawler of cards that buy me time while extort is built up. Vampire Nighthawk and Gravecrawler are nice ways to keep the pressure on and help with defense. Orzhov Charm and Oblivion Ring for control. Obzedat, Ghost Council for a finisher and health recovery

Synergies:

• sac a Gravecrawler to protect Cartel Aristocrat
• afterwhich Gravecrawler can be cast from the GY for extort
• tap Thrull Parasite to remove a counter from Geralf's Messenger
