Troisième Interview : Mathieu no comments

Aprés un peu d’inactivité … voici la Troisième interview !
Q1 : Présente toi : comment t’appelles tu, ton âge, d’où es-tu originaire et où vis tu actuellement ?

Je m’appelle Mathieu, je suis né en 1980 (j’ai donc 37 ans là tout de suite).

Je suis originaire d’Amiens (en Picardie), mais ça fait maintenant 15 ans que je suis à Paris.

J’habite dans le 94 à Maisons-Alfort.

BudgetDeck : Back in Black 1 comment

I started Old-School at the end of 2016, early 2017 and as everyone who starts playing ’93/94, I was wondering : what deck am I going to play ?

There is 2 types of people : the first one owns a large collection of cards, the second one starts fresh.

For the first type, the answer is quite simple : you just browse a few blogs and find a deck that fits your mood < repeat every week >.

As for the second group, like myself, it’s a little bit more difficult, knowing that this year has been agitated with price spikes….

GPasDeThune : Back in Black 4 comments

J’ai commencé à me mettre au OldSchool à la fin de l’année 2016, début 2017 vraiment, et bah je me suis posé une sacrée question ! Je joue quoi ?

J’ai pas de p9, pas de biland, une yawgmoth’s will, une ile unglued et une academy tolarian KR, autant dire rien.

Donc je pars de RIEN, voir MOINS que rien, alors qu’à côté ya des chanceux qui ont gardé leur collection pendant des années dormir chez mamie….

Pour ceux la, c’est pas compliqué de trouver un Deck, enfin si, ya trop de choix.

First Interview : Guillaume Denoix no comments

As we previously said on Facebook and in the First post, we’ll try to post some interview, with basics questions, because Old-School is about casual competition, drinking beers & meeting with friends.

The first « beta-tester » of this interview process is Guillaume Denoix, most of you already know him, met him or talk to on Facebook but you probably don’t know more, this is where the interview plays its role 🙂

Première Interview : Guillaume Denoix no comments

Comme nous l’avons précisé sur Facebook et dans le premier post, nous essayerons de poster quelques interviews, avec des questions standards, car le Old-School est aussi la pour lier connaissance, en plus de boire des verres lors de tournois casual 🙂

Le premier sujet de cette suite d’interviews est Guillaume Denoix, la plupart d’entre vous le connaisse déjà, soit parce que vous l’avez rencontré ou discuté avec lui sur Facebook mais vous ne le connaissez pas plus que cela, c’est pourquoi l’interview est la !
