I also prefer a smaller deck and ended with just a little bit smaller (less 3 cards from the original).
Since I like the idea of a gigantic vampire, I added another LS so it won't end up at the last of my cards and it also can act as my emergency kit if I need healing fast. Also added a couple of entropy pends hoping to clear my hand so I can play the supernova ASAP and more
to use the hourglass.
I also tested few times using a
half-upgraded deck, and it worked considerably well. Of course it is slower (around 17-20 turns) but it still can achieve the EM part.
So here is my variation. Hope that I can win an upgraded chimera soon!

+1 karma for you Eva for reviving my interest in a gigantic vampire deck.
