And no the number of the life lose will never be more than 1.This is a keyword,unlike Battalion whice is an ability word and only has a set condition but variable effects.

I like extort a lot. It is Orzhov to the max. I think it has the potential to be extremely powerful.

It seems kind of weird to have something so specific keyworded.

Extort is extremely flavorful and a good ability to boot. Well done WOTC!

Taxes! Glorious taxes!

Holy Extortion batman, that's ability's basically a Ghost Council of Orzhova wrapped in a new ability just by casting spells.

Also preview card is like WTF, that's pretty good for a 6 drop in limited.

I'm liking the mechanic. I might have to break out my vault of the archangels again.

I wonder if its always 1 for 1 or if there will be cards that have different costs but steal more life.
