This is my current top50 grinder. Its not the fastest deck in terms of TTW, but i can safly say its EM rate is just ridiculous (even against AI3 rush decks) and that makes up for it.

The ammount of clicks needed per turn is the absolute minimum - no activated abilities or targeting, just click if something blinks in your hand and that was your turn.

Here are the three steps to success :
1)play Towers
2)play Pests 
3)play what blinks after that

You should spend more time waiting for your opponent than with your actual turn, its that easy.

Its TTW is definatly not the fastest, but at the current Score/E system you should be more than even in terms of Score/E gain (less spins in the same timeframe though) compared to the usual top50 rush deck.

Every game you (EM) win in less than 10 turns you are one game ahead of the average "rush" - and trust me the EM rate is just nuts.
Every game you don´t EM or need more than 10 turns you fall behind.
Simmilar to a Rol/Hope deck you should notice when the game is lost and can bail out early to safe some time (Dim Shield chain with lots of Hourglasses , early huge Oty etc),but you should safly beat the most popular rush decks without much trouble.

Overall i´m very happy with the result. Don´t really want to add a winratio since t50 decks are changed so frequently and the stats are next to pointless after like 5 ppl change their decks.

Here are a couple Screenshots:

Flying Eternities EM

Flying Eternity Stall failing to Eternity loop and decks out ...




Dune Scorps EM

Dune Scorpion deck failing to get Momentum out




Mono Darkness EM

Mono Darkness Deck - well its just a fail


and my favorite:



Golem Rush EM

Now thats hillarious - Golem Rush failing at getting me below 100 hp.

the oh so popular Life Rush EM

Slightly outhealed the Life Rush ....

This looks fun.  I'm glad to see flying daggers comming into vogue.

You sure bond is better than epi?

Looks like the bond is a unique addition to this deck and may work in the long run - with adrena vampires, if the vampire gets killed, you lose the epi. With bonds, it seems more stable.

Any advice how can I slot in adrenaline in this deck somehow? Would like to try since I like the vampire+adrenaline+emp bond bug.

Guess you could cut the 2nd Eclipse if you feel you need even more heal, but i highly doubt that you are ever going to need it.

After testing it in Trainer, it works pretty well. Just a question: does it work unupped?

[Sal]

In the upped version the Vampires are the main damage dealers.You would have to adjust a bit to make up for the lack of damage (maybe replace a few Vamps with Dragons).Dusk Shields + Bonds cost is quite a lot higher unupped and you would lack the speed of upped Towers so i can´t really reccoment a unupped version without some major changes.

Strong against rushes, iffy against control. EM rate is indeed high, but I find that vampires can't do enough damage before control decks have a time to set up, which results in pretty bad things, like devourer getting fractaled, vamps getting antimattered, stuff getting stolen/destroyed, opponents putting up hope, single lobo loboing everything, and single pulvy pulvying everything, etc.

All in all, a pretty nice and stable deck though. But I want to squeeze a steal in there somewhere...
