Gotcha! Ah, that seems really cool, yet also really mean/unfair, haha!

New to MTG here!!! Just bought the Orzhov Oppression deck and feeling lost. So I guess I'm just looking for a bit of an explanation. [Sorry for the length of the post!!]

If I'm understanding this correctly: I get the Guildmage out. Then get Exquisite Blood out as soon as I can. Then (assuming I have an extort creature already out) I pay mana for the Guildmage's second ability ((Whenever you gain life this turn, each opponent loses that much life)) followed by payment for an extort.

So this creates a kind of feedback where I am constantly gaining one life, therefore "pinging" my opponent for one life (which causes me to gain one life, etc)?

Once this goes into effect, the game ends unless...??? And what happens if I have two Extort creatures out and use Extort twice or more?

Sorry for all the questions, and hope someone followed along my rant and can provide some answers! Maybe a play-by-play breakdown/explanation would help. Would really, really appreciate it!

TL/DR: How does this deck operate? I'm too new and oblivious to understand.
