My Version of a Vampire Madness deck with the new pieces given with the EMN set and so far I'm very happy about it and it plays out primarily through Falkenrath Gorger , Olivia, Mobilized for War and Drana, Liberator of Malakir . +1 if you like the deck Idea and suggestions are welcome, Thanks!

Starting Hand Explanation

Your starting should look something like this for an ideal start; 1 or more of either Falkenrath Gorger , Heir of Falkenrath   , or Ravenous Bloodseeker for early board presence and value threats along with 2 lands minimum hopefully 1 each black and red and some form of burn/removal from the suite.

Turn 1: land, or Land + Falkenrath Gorger Turn 2: land + Heir of Falkenrath   , Ravenous Bloodseeker or Stromkirk Condemned Turn 3: land + Olivia, Mobilized for War. Discard and flip the heir swing for three through the air. Turn 4: Combo Drana, Liberator of Malakir with Olivia and continue to rinse and repeat the combo with your creatures as the game goes on. Cards like Distemper of the Blood , Fiery Temper or Alms of the Vein make for great combos with the Olivia, Mobilized for War Stromkirk Condemned or Ravenous Bloodseeker discard outlets. Many great discard enablers in this deck. Card explanations below!

Creatures

Bloodhall Priest Payment for keeping our hand empty with its on cast and attack ability churning out 2 damage when our hand is empty and with a cheap 3CMC madness cost. Great turn 3 play if Drana or Olivia haven't made it in play yet.

Ravenous Bloodseeker Best discard outlet in the deck that can reach immense sizes if left unblocked when blockers are declared. Great pump target.

Stromkirk Condemned Fantastic discard outlet with pump. Get on the field ASAP to start getting more value out of cards discarded.

Incorrigible Youths A great 3 drop (madness cost) body with haste thats instant pressure if maddnessed into play. Payin the full cost is never worth it.

Drana, Liberator of Malakir Double black turn 3 or 4 play that buffs our attacking creatures just about every combat phase having flying and first strike.

Falkenrath Gorger Gives all our vampires madness long as it's on the board. Keep him alive long as you can to get bigger value out of discard when you have to drop a creature to pump Furyblade Vampire and play them back with instant speed.

Heir of Falkenrath   Aggressive turn 2 play with an easy flip mechanism by discarding turn 3 and flipping for a 3/2 flyer early game.

Olivia, Mobilized for War Turn 3 play if able and makes (if you have cards in hand) any creature played from there after get a +1/1 buff and haste upon entering play and makes for great madness combos as explained later below.

Noncreature spells

Distemper of the Blood Great combo card with just about every creature in this deck. Can turn furyblade into a 6pt trampling beast or force through Drana's damage through chump blockers and much more. A must have for me.

Fiery Temper efficient removal if played for its madness cost or burn to add additional pressure to our opponent.

Alms of the Vein Psuedo burn and life gain always a great discard option.

Grasp of Darkness Great instant speed removal.

Lands

Foreboding Ruins great land keeps the pressure up if used properly if not just another tap land along with Smoldering Marsh .

Geier Reach Sanitarium Great land that also contributes as a discard outlet and gives decent card draw for when our hand is low.

Sideboard

Transgress the Mind Great for siding in during control match ups to take away board sweepers that could clear our already small board. Good for pulling key cards like Start Your Engines Fumigate Planar Outburst engulf the shores and others out of our opponents hands.

Biting Rain A madness Languish ish type card with languish rotated out of standard great for speed decks and tokens for early or late game board wipes at instant speed (madness).

Collective Brutality Great new edition from EMN. A fantastic discard outlet with its escalate cost, removal, life gain/drain or hand hate all in one. Can pluck away CoCo or Languish to prolong us the time we need to finish a game or save our creatures.

Ruinous Path Self explanatory for the Super Friends of MTG...

Tears of Valkut bye Avacyn, or Skysovereign, Consul Flagship ....

Lost Legacy Side in against mono green ramp to pull out their World Breaker before they get to ramp into it. Or an Avacyn, the Purifier   , thaila's lieutenant in white weenies or G/W tokens to disrupt their game plans and other situational needs for it. Reflector Mage or the newly found Spell Queller from Bant deck builds. Also great for getting rid of Start Your Engines with vehicles being a big play.
