Extort (Whenever you cast a spell, you may pay 
. If you do, each opponent loses 1 life and you gain that much life.)
1 / 4
「无人可以...通过而不付代价。」守军
敲诈（每当你施放一个咒语时，你可以支付。若你如此作，则每位对手各失去1点生命，且你获得等量的生命。）
The extort ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. The ability resolves even if that spell is countered.
The extort ability doesn't target any player.
You may pay {W/B} a maximum of one time for each extort triggered ability. You decide whether to pay when the ability resolves.
The amount of life you gain from extort is based on the total amount of life lost, not necessarily the number of opponents you have. For example, if your opponent's life total can't change (perhaps because that player controls Platinum Emperion), you won't gain any life.
Legality follows the dated Scryfall catalog snapshot.
