The Dead Ones are an original team since they rely a lot on their excellent but fragile blitzer.
The vulture is a good casualty maker, but will have to be procted because of it's low AV. The idea will be to hide it and let it swoop out, hit a target and then return behind shelter, which will lead to a unique strategy.
The Murkwoods are good bashers and defensive players with S access, AV 8 and stand firm. They can also reroll their Take Root rolls, but with ST 4 and AV 8 they are not that hard to take out and will likely not live that long due to the team not having an apo. They are good but risky alternative for the LOS.
Draugr are from the norse mythology and will therefore have the frenzy trait. They are described as having superhuman traits, so G access and AV 7 will make them them key players.
The Dead Ones have two kinds of linemen: Slow and clumpsy zombies, that have decent AV and are the only players with the thrall trait for when the vulture gets hungry. (They are the only ones with flesh on them...) Skeletons, who can handle the ball but have low AV due to their fragile forms. (I was inspired by the skeletons of the movie Jason and the Argonauts that were more agile and fast compared to the general skeletons of Blood Bowl.)
The star player is a phantom, which purpose is only to harass opponents across the field. Since it has no physical form it can neither pick up the ball or block well, but instead use it's terrifying presence to distract. (Symbolized with hypnotic gaze) Since it is not physical it can of course not be destroyed, so the Iron Man trait ensures it being kept alive. (Yes, Iron Man can be used like this. It's used for the T.A.N.K, a prize in a stunty tournament)
