Where I play magic at, we see a lot of extort decks come and go. Seems to be the most popular among newer players. This makes sense since it's simple and easy to build. But it never is really a deck that really uses the principles of pinging for damage using extort or other methods. It always ends up being "Extort & Friends," where friends meaning random black & white spells they happen to like.

So I've taken it upon myself to build a half decent extort deck. The focus is to ping others to death, while i gain life. I put in a few combos and various win cons, along with the tutor power to get those wins in play.

I'm looking for any comments or ideas to help the deck out.
