Since I started playing Magic in 2017, my favorite card has always been Crypt Ghast and I have always loved the Extort ability and since I only play EDH now, i figured it was time to bring extort to a deck.

This deck is all about life drain and life gain. I wanted to splash in blue to add control and pillow forting so Oloro, Ageless Ascetic was perfect for that, allowing me to constant gain life and add card draw to every extort that I do.

I feel like a lot of people don't think extort is any good, but the ability to convert excess mana to 3 life per mana is great, along with draining everyone for one. Especially when I can get my opponents to 10 health with Sorin Markov or recurring Magister Sphinx multiple times, allows me to only have to extort 10 times or use Exsanguinate to finish off everyone at once.

This deck is probably pretty jank, and honestly I like jankness. I built this on a bit of a budget, the expensive cards that are in are because I already own them. I'm not the greatest at deck building and built this all myself so please let me know what I should cut and add into the deck!
