Deck Description

very simple to play extort every turn as much as possible and build Liliana up to her -6 then debt to the deathless usually ends the game... im looking to remove some of the entrenchments and put more instances in any suggestions as to what is a good cheap mana cost instant that fits this deck

You need to put Vizkopa Guild Mage in this deck, the combo with Exquisite Blood is just too good to let go. I'm also fond of High Priests of Penance to dissuade attackers and do some removal. I'd replace the Executioner Swings with Smites, they cost less and guarantee a kill while keeping your creature. Maybe cut the Debt to the Deathless down and add a finisher or two: Griselbrand and Blood Baron of Vizkopa are my two personal favorites. Check out this deck for some inspiration... this is the most effective extort deck I've seen:

I've got one up as well that I like, but I've changed some things around.

i do have 4 Vizkopa Guild Mages in the mail for this deck and 3 more Exquisite Bloods as well. i will defiantly get some Smites to switch out for the Executioners Swings.

i do fully plan on cutting the deck to 60. im defiantly going to cut the swamps down to at most 15 and more then likely take out some creatures. i just haven't gotten to play the deck enough to really see what creatures are truly worth keeping

im leaning towards cutting all Syndic of Tithes, Tithe Drinker, and the Basilica Guards. and possible bumping the bloodhunter bat, and kingpin's pet up to 4 in the deck. so i can have all around blockers

Keep the bat, you need flying chumps... the guards are nice as well but the tithe drinker might be more useful given the cost & early lifelink potential.

I've been running Rhox faithmender in my extort deck to great effect - I recommend him for any lifegain deck. If you want to be a prick, you can also run Felidar Sovereign though don't count on playing this deck often after winning that way, unless you can take the aggro it'll bring.
don't forget removal in multiplayer - I'd add a few o rings when playing against more than one opponent. A mutilate or two is always useful as well, especially if you have blind obedience out because you can still extort.
