- Design Goals
- Archetypes
- Draft House Rules
- Played with: regular drafters used to cube at different power levels
- Restrictions: High flavor adherence, peasant, innistrad set "feel" as in typical archetypes
- Powerlevel: individual cards should not invalidate archetypes (too much efficient removal renders werewolf obsolete, because most have no value baked in)
- Types of stories: -> all Innistrad: Werewolf overrunning humans, Pitchforked Humans kick Zombies, win long attrition games with casting flashback spells, armies of spiders crwling from the grave

General:
- mostly went for a lower curve and more proactive incentives where possible. Most games ended up rather grindy and aggressive decks didn't get through. Might also be player preference though
- some more grave hate
- no interest in to "blood matters" cards, but a few blood tokens generated at the side fit well with the madness theme.
- Bloodtithe Harvester is actually a good aggressive and versatile card, as well as working well with early madness, but I prefer the madness payoffsOther Notes:
- Black still has too many threes
- not sure about the amount of ramp in green. Does is fit here?
-White could use some more efficient flieres
