Greater Tanuki is a bit of an extension of that issue, where a 6/5 trample is fine to cast but discarding it to three mana Rampant Growth isn't really a good thing
Obvious ideas would be exchanging most of the expensive vampires in exchange for cheaper and (only slightly in some situations) weaker ones and consider getting creatures that aren't vampires, getting more spells in exchange for creatures could be good too, (I might have stuck with the whole vampire theme a little too much here) But after all that I'm still stoked to play it just need to add a bit of power to it.
The deck then adds powerful midgame threats with strong secondary abilities including Exemplar (flying, +1/+1 counters, card draw), Angel of Finality (flying, graveyard disruption), Serra Angel (flying, vigilance), Dazzling Angel (flying, life gain), Vanguard Seraph (flying, scry), and more
But there is no apparent reason for these cards to have different rarities than others, while making the two variants of the fully evolved starter Pokmon rarer makes the pull rates for the different Pokmon species more balanced
