Are you looking to take control of the game and keep your opponent off theirs? This is my take on a B/W prison-style deck that looks to lock up the opponent's creatures while setting up for an extort triggered infinite combo with Exquisite Blood + Sanguine Bond
. Punishing their manna base while picking off their threats and combo pieces keeps you alive long enough to set up your creature lock and win conditions. Relying on on the combo isn't the only way this deck can get there, as the multiple extort triggers can eventually overwhelm an opponent, or you can simply beat down with a couple flyers and an Obzedat, Ghost Council (which is also a great way to trigger the combo).  This style of deck is new to me, so still trying to find the correct combination for the 60, but I think the core of the deck is there. The reason I built this deck was to push extort and the combo (though removing the combo after side boarding is a viable move), so I'm not looking to eliminate them completely in an attempt to upgrade the deck. I realize this archetype is pretty meta-dependent, so suggestions on various cards for different metas would be appreciated, alongside any general tips.
