Cptn's Log - the calm before the storm

     so, i made my post late last night and here i am, 11 am est, blogging...what more could i possibly have to say under such short notice?  if you know me, you know i never have a shortage of things to say.   so i played my promo's this weekend...that was a mistake.  there is nothing i like better than someone playing bard, and being terrible with them in ranked.  the good thing was, it didn't take up a great deal of my time because 5 minutes into the first game, our bard, who was terrible, got butthurt when one of his "attempted plays", went south and got us killed.  naturally, it was my fault, just ask him.  now, i've learned to accept my mistakes, and especially in solo q, but when someone sets up a bad engage, and i back him up, because he's my lane mate, and we die, dude...that't not all on me.  i digress, i'm getting off what i wanted to talk about, which is the new skins on the pbe, for april fool's day!

     let me start by saying, i'm not an urf fan.  not the character, not the game mode, and really, not any of the skins, he doesn't do anything for me.  that being said, i think the nami urf skin is fantastic.  now, this could be because i am biased, as nami is one of my favorite champs, but, i think its pretty great, and can't wait to burn more holes in my wallet.  beyond the nami skin, the definitely not udyr skin, another champ i'm not fond of, is also amazing and hilarious.  it's good to see that riot hasn't completely lost their sense of humor when it comes to skins.  other than those 2 i mentioned, i don't have much of a vested interest in any of the other skins.
     i've pretty much said all i can say about the lcs this week.  with next weeks docket of games still a few days off, i'm not going to preview them until its a little closer.  what i can say is i'm pulling for Fnatic in the eu region and Team Impulse in the na region.  i like a good underdog story, and both of these teams suffered major losses in personnel this off season.  no one expected pretty much anything from either team, especially in the first split.

     so it's a thin day of news and opinions, deal with it.  consider this the soup portion of the meal.  soon you'll be getting to the goods, but i'm going to make you wait, because...well that's the type of guy i am.

see you on the rift.
