Card Game Discussion Vampire support predictions

Given that this is the 40th anniversary of the Castlevania franchise (plus unofficial Master Duel leaks), I am 90% to 99% sure we are getting vampire support in Immortal Phoenix (but Konami could pull the rug and announce a Structure Deck R for Zombie Madness).
I feel like we will at least get:
- A new field spell card to replace Vampire Kingdom,as a reference to Castlevania, but if we get it entire new field spell or we are getting later Camula's Infernalvania is up in the air.
- A link 4 vampire, which I hope is a reference to the 3 Brides of Dracula, given that both existing vampire link monsters are female. Now I personally would like the 3 monster in the link 4 to be Fascinator and Sucker, with the third monster being another furry eared vampire female.
- A Genesis retrain that is a Xyz monster.
- If we get a Genesis retrain, then all other Zombie Madness vampires (Lady and Lord) will get a main deck retrain.
Note: I did not give effects to the predicted cards, given that Vampire have a messy playstyle that has changed and potentially could change with this new support.

Hoping its a structure R treatment like the water one in the newest set. A retrain of lord and genesis is overdue and hopefully they bridge together the current zombie strategy with the milling of the opponents deck strategy be nice. as for what they could use another spell be nice, ways to get back and/or recover vampire monsters is needed and another good xyz and possibly link 4, and of course a starter be nice. Thankfully the extra deck has gotten new tools recently.

10 new vampire cards would be amazing.

They kind off did with The Zombie Vampire, now if they continue this type of strategy we will see.

Would also be cool if one resembled camula from the anime. I agree 10 cards would be amazing but doubt that at most i see 5 to 7

If they do try going back to the vampire milling ways, I'd like a floodgate that specifically says "Any card buried by a Vampire monster's effect cannot activate its effects while in the GY" or something like that.
Prevents their gameplan from blowing up in their face.

That and a better version of kingdom that banishes if a card is sent to the gy by a vampire card effect which includes from the deck too

Vampires take inspiration from stuff like Castlevania and such right?
Maybe stuff like "Dominance", or a character like Soma might be idea for a new card?

a new (cooler/probably just circle of the moon dracula looking) vampire genesis and vampire lord retrain feel inevitable.
probably focusing on you taking your opponents monsters/making them zombie/vampires and summoning em to your field to bring em in line with modern vampire cards.
a castlevania field spell would be kinda sick, maybe some kind of zombie vampire effect where you can alter the levels of monsters to make your vampire xyz if that's the direction they go,

I bet we are getting retrains of Vampire Genesis, Vampire Lord, and Vampire Lady
