Deca instead of Test???

[NEWBIE_TDM]

Hi there.
I was planning to do a test-e cycle, 400mg EW, 10 weeks then PCT with Clomid/Nolva. I am 5'11, 185, 35 years old, been training for 4-5 years, the last 3 consistently.
There's this guy in my gym who's pretty big and very lean, maybe 6-7% bf and we go to talking about AAS. It turns out the guy is very knowledgable, he was competing for years back in 1996 in Europe, has done almost all AAS in large quantities, last cycle he was doing 1.5gr test EW. Anyway, he said to me not to do any test. He says, no matter the dosage I will get nasty sides, with acne almost 100%. He suggested that I do 400mg EW Deca alone for 10 weeks adding that I will be very happy with the results. He also said "Deca Dick" is bull$hit and it only exists on the Internet AAS boards.
I really wanna hear what experienced users have to say about this. Thanks.
