Well with the nice help of fellow Southperricans I have been able to come to a decision. I have joined my buddy Metalfenrir on his team "Amputease"!
I'm going to use this post to keep track of my tournament experiences, sort of a competitive diary of sorts. So feel free to post questions or advice here as things progress.

Game 1:
----------
I ended up going against a newly formed team of high rated players, but that wasn't the issue for this game. The issue was that their captain has been hanging out in my stream ALL week watching me play and I'm guessing taking notes. He confirmed it after the game in private chat, but they literally banned and picked against me. They banned my pantheon and took all gap closing bruisers (malphite/amumu/riven with flash) specifically to take me out of the game.
That pineappleing sucked and I learned a good lesson about when and what to pick. My team had me on 2nd pick and they chose vayne for me, which apparently was a stupid decision in retrospect.
Next week they will move me to third pick and possibly allow some of my AP's into the match in case of heavy bans/picks against me.

Ended the night 2 for 3 gaining us 4th place! We are working on our champ rosters and I think that the team did great for our second tourney together.
Notable moments: Game 1 was streamed on the DD channel, I carried on ryze with 27 kills. Game 4 was me on tristana and I got to carry that game too, it was not streamed.
What did I learn from this week: We have a couple of strategies that we play out well on and I like that. We have a notable weakness in our windmill fight @ level 3, we need to win that fight more often.

4th Place
----------------------------------------------------
Dominate Dominion #32: Knocked out in the first round against FTV. We tried to put teemo into a teamcomp made for zyra/orianna. It didn't work out.
----------------------------------------------------
Dominate Dominion #33: Faced FTV again, this time we brought them down to 109 points left by the end of the game. I feel like we will be real contenders for next week.
