First, why are the Mahotsukai death mages? I would have thought they would be blood mages, instead.

It'd be really quite versatile for the Elemental Blood Summons, in keeping with the Mahotsukai tradition, and suitably priced (200g, perhaps?) wouldn't overshadow Mictlan.
3 random elemental plus 2 blood for 200g wouldn't overshadown Mictlan?

Without much deep thought, it seems like it would, to me.

Mictlan has no random picks on any of its mages, and the mages it does have are expensive. Compare their most powerful: 2 Fire, 3 Blood, 4 Holy, for 390 gold. No versatility, and nearly twice the cost you proposed.

Moreover, Mictlan national troops are something many players have a hard time using effectively. Norfleet suggests playing Mictlan without taking any national troops at all. Ashikaga has Samurai, which from what I've seen in these threads are (naturally) quite good troops.
