You think that Sorin Grandfather is all pissy about his legacy going down the drain here. Hell even Gisa, and Geralf are probably throwing some sort of child fit and are at least attempting to fight back against the light.
Not a single Zombie or Vampire.

They're there. They just haven't been spoiled yet because they were the theme of the previous sets. This is all about the humans and Angels fighting against the demons. That's what this set is about, so everything else has to take a backseat.
But we've seen cards leaked from elsewhere that show some numbers of the missing creatures.

There definitly are vampire and zombie cards, but they all seem to be commons or uncommons. The black rare creatures are all demons so far, so not sure you'll get any sweet rare vampires or zombies.
But this is the Angels (vs Demons) set.

Unofficial spoilers have shown a good number of zombies and at least one vampire I can remember. and one card has a quote by Olivia Voladren in the flavor text, so at least one big-time vampire is still undead and kicking.

That a slight relief... Red and Black is all good for mechanic wise, but I was getting worry about the flavor of the undead and made a sad face when I saw the spoilers lol.

This... really isn't about the flavor or storyline, is it?
The answer is no, no it is not.
Also, will people please calm the hell down? First it was people complaining about no wolfir, now it's people complaining about no zombies. Give it time. Seriously.

Can we complain about the thing being badly written with stuff like locking a village in ones (aristocratically large) basement for safety, Cathars who'd rather poledance than fight, having to mention the famous subterranean natural spring and Avacynian altar six times over in a single paragraph, Avacyn's eldritch transformation, the Spanish Inquisition, or *shudder* mage-cathars being mistrusted by the rest?

There has to be at least one more awesome zombie for my army in this set. Or I'm going to cry bitter tears of rage and disappointment. Demons are cool and all, but they don't hold a candle to zombies. And neither do angels.
Also, Angel of Glory's Rise seems hilariously insulting. The first thing I thought when I saw it was, "Oh, **** you." It's just a backwards and better version of Zombie Apocalypse. Which should have been left alone because it is a perfect card.

It would have been, if the zombies win.
But they don't.

I suspect that that's part of Engine's fundamental problem here, actually...
