Q1: How (and when) did you begin your career as a VTES-player? Who introduced you to the game? Where did you play originally?
A1: I started with selling my whole Magic collection after 5th edition and buying VTES for the money I got. I was introduced by one of my classmates with whom I played D&D. I play still in Kosice but I used to play in Prague during my studies.


Q2: Which of the Sets and Expansions to VTES is your favorite, and why is it your top choice?
A2: Sabbat War rulez. I used to have proxies like on Palla grande from Black Hand a proxy paper Palla Grande SW.
One of my first sets and it have included so many new and really good cards - PB: Montreal, Tzimisce, Omaya.


Q3: What is your favorite deck to play, and why?

A3: Omaya swarm power bleed. It just works almost all the time except at European Championships :D


Q4: If you could add something to the game, what would it be?
A4: In my opinion, VTES now needs more to ban a few cards, not add more. But some interesting ideas are there of course. Definitely something to support the merging of vampires, maybe few more advanced vampires, thus improving vampires not being played for a long time with advanced versions.


Q5: What do you do to help promote the game?
A5: I started as a Prince of Kosice in 2001. Organized several demos, big events, regular tournaments, Kosice league. Thus far, I'm the only one here that is interested in doing such a job. I'm also the only one attending European Championships each year. As National Coordinator I have only 2 cities to support, since Slovakia is small.


Q6: What is your favorite deck style for casual play / tournament play?
A6: Casual - Crazy not working 10+ cards combo deck.
Tournament - Crazy not working 10+ cards deck that shows that it's working


Q7: Is there a difference between your casual play and tournament play?
A7: If I'm having fun there is no difference.
