Deck discussion for Budget: Extort

Too many guild gates, Kingpins pets I have found to be less than worth while. Vizkopa seems a bit out of place, it won't help much over any extrort giving card.

The key to extort is all lots of cheap and annoying spells that you can extort multiple times.

I know my extort deck may not fit the term budget but it does work well based on that core principle.

Silence can be very useful. Stops them playing spells for a turn and you can extort it lots. Crypt Ghast is great too but maybe not budget.
I like Alive/Well too. For the well side. 2 life gain per creature, with extort on top of that you can get a large chunk of life at once.

The best way to play extort is to keep the creatures going as long as you can, so the 1 cost white protection instants are good options.
