Q1: How (and when) did you begin your career as a VTES-player? Who introduced you to the game? Where did you play originally?
I started to play during the long nights between Sabbat and Sabbat War. My friends from Kosice (Jaroslav Rosenberger and Zsolt Varga) introduced me to the game. I originally played in Kosice, Slovak Republic.

Q2: Which of the Sets and Expansions to VTES is your favorite, and why is it your top choice?
Usually the most current one, since I love to explore the possibilities which new cards brings to the game. But I like the Black Hand expansion the most, because of the new things it allows me to do with various sabbat clans.

Q3: What is your favorite deck to play, and why?
For a long time, my favorite deck to play was my Omaya wall deck, currently I enjoy playing Black Hand decks, especially decks which contains some Marijava Thuggies. Those decks, and some of my other decks can be found at our site.

Q4: If you could add something to the game, what would it be?
Although I enjoy multi player dimension of this game, I am quite fed up with all those unecessary chatter at tables. So if I could add something to the game, I would add less table talk and more action.I actually do this actively, since I started to play "Deal with me or Die" decks at tournaments almost exclusively.

Q5: What do you do to help promote the game / why are you in this list of people?
Well, let's see:

I used to live in Barcelona for six months. During that period I played with
(and beat) Ruben (Vidana Ramos) a lot. >:)
I used to be Prince of Prague for some time.
I do play on various eastern Europen tournaments quite frequently.

I am also co-editor of VtES section of Prague by Night site (www.vampire.cz).
The vampire section is still underdeveloped, but this should change soon.

Q6: What is your favorite deck style for casual play / tournament play?
For casual play it's definitely Black Hand decks for now. For tournament play I used to play lots of intercept combat, but I switched to more agressive decks recently.

Q7: Is there a difference between your casual play and tournament play?
Well, I always play for fun AND for win, whether it is casual game on tournament game. I almost never do long term deals in casual games, though.
