I got a 10$ Riot Points card today and instead of blowing it all on skins I don't need I bought boosts instead.
I have a 15 win XP boost and a 7 win IP boost. The XP boost doesn't do as much difference as I had originally hoped for, but it's a hell of a lot better than leveling up the normal way.

So right now I am about 3 wins away from getting to level 16, and hopefully the remaining few XP wins will last me till 17. Played about 3 games today, nothing out of the ordinary or special, though I could have played a lot better. I realize now that Trydamere, though being as awesome as he is, can't handle the top lane of Summoner's Rift, especially when Miss Fortune has the "Make it Rain" ability (which I'm sure we all hate to get caught in) that'll slow Tryn down so badly the falmboyantly colored Taric takes me out w/o buying me dinner first. There's nothing more I hate than getting killed by a champion with the swag of a cross-dresser. Oh well, i'll be sure to pulverize him later.

Anyway, stay tuned if you want.
