Innistrad Cube is designed to take advantage of the flavors, mechanics, archetypes, and themes of Innistrad. Drafting the original set was one of my favorite draft experiences, so I tried to replicate that experience in a cube format. When designing the cube, I heavily favored Innistrad cards wherever I could in order to keep the flavor strong. However, I also considered power level when making decisions as that is also important.

The cube has about 10-12 supported archetypes which include self-mill (my personal favorite Innistrad archetype), all the tribal strategies (Werewolves, Vampires, Zombies, Spirits, and Humans), some reanimated and "aristocrat" style decks. Several of the archetypes branch into 3+ colors which allows cubers the opportunity to try something new each time. Tools are also available for midrange archetypes, but themes are heavily supported and removal is intentionally weaker.

Most Viable Archetypes:
Azorius Spirits / Tempo
Boros Humans / Aggro
Selesnya Humans / Aggro
Dimir Zombies
Izzet Prowess / Tempo
Rakdos Vampires
Golgari Graveyard
Gruul Werewolves
Mardu Aristocrats
Sultai Self-Mill and Reanimator

Other Themes: Tallowisp Auras, God-Phaoroh's Gift

Tallowisp is errata'ed to search for any aura. This isn't super-aligned with Innistrad themes, but it does make it work with curses and makes spirits more desirable to draft.
