Black-green is traditionally a midrange, graveyard-matters, attrition-y combination. Some of that works better in this set than others. "Midrange" and "fatties" don't really apply because there's a cap on the normal creature sizes as discussed at Suzaku Kururugi. The way to get fatties is put decent pilots in decent mechs.
However, Code Geass does have a fair amount of "wouldn't stay dead" feeling. Occasionally characters die for real, but fairly often they come back in a dramatic reversal. That's my design for C.C., Impulsive Witch, though she's currently rare. I could probably find appropriate themes to do more recursion and graveyard-matters cards.
It's a slight pity I've currently got Miraculous Recovery pegged as the uncommon reanimation spell, which is a delightful reprint (Miraculous Recovery) with great flavour for the set. Indeed, as I point out over on that card's discussion, the recursion in the series is generally "I wasn't as dead as you thought", and the flavour there is better in white/green than black/green. So maybe this should actually be the (Green-white archetype).
Which leaves black-green looking for something else to do. Attrition is possible: green will have card advantage and possibly a little regeneration, black will have plenty of removal... I have a bit of a problem here in that this is my least-favourite colour pair and I don't really know how to build a deck for it with uncommons and commons.
One of the ten colour-pair archetypes.
Not too sure about this one.
