Life Insurance — Profit from Every Passing
Life Insurance is a measured enchantment that leans into the set theme of outlaw economics. The card rewards incremental advantage through Extort and turns opponent losses into your liquid assets. Play it in a deck that casts multiple low cost spells and pressures the table, because the continuous drain and Treasure creation compound into real resource growth over a game.
Mechanically it pairs well with sacrifice and death triggers since each nontoken creature that dies gives you a Treasure while costing you a single life. The extort trigger functions as a steady tax on spellcasting that benefits you across multiplayer pods. Experienced players will recognize this as a card that shifts marginal gains into long term value rather than a one shot swing.
