I had a brief discussion about mixed and vampire in the Discord and someone suggested that there be a version of mixed that only has the more stealthy sneaky antags.
Currently mixed has: Traitor, changeling, wizard, spy thief, blob, wraith, vampire and werewolf (last two are mixed exclusive antag selections, the rest also have their own dedicated mode or, in the case of wraith, rarely show up in traitor)
This variation of mixed I'm proposing would have: Traitor, changeling, spy thief and vampire.
Currently mixed is really rare because mixed rounds were these hyper violent chaos rounds where wizards and wolves rampaged and the shuttle got called early. It's not very fun to be a traitor or a changeling or vampire in this rounds in my opinion because oftentimes you'll get killed right away by a far stronger far more obvious rampage-oriented antagonist or you won't get a chance to do your cool stuff because everyone is dying/dead and the shuttle is on its way in 20 minutes.
I think this less chaotic version of mixed would combine the primary advantage mixed has (not being able to tell the roundtype just by identifying one traitor/ling/whatever) while also not having the main disadvantage of mixed. (the absurdly chaotic and fast-paced rounds that seemingly throw everything and the kitchen sink at you)
This would also give the new overhauled vampire a stage to shine on so to speak, I think they're more suited for a roundtype like that so it'd be good if they weren't exclusive to mixed (as mixed exists now). It'd also make them not only show up in the rarest mode and they seem to be really fun and good so they shouldn't be uncommon!
