While the roster for Boston's new OWL team is still a mystery (scheduled to be revealed next week), but rebellious team name and exclusive skin were announced today. The Boston Uprising, owned by Robert and Jonathan Kraft, looks to leverage the cities undeniable sports culture and turn its attention towards esports.
This description below was taken from Boston's official press release.
"The name of the team was selected to represent the resilience of the region’s revolutionary forefathers, whose indomitable legacy laid the foundation for the great city of Boston. The Boston Uprising colors will be blue, yellow and black, with the blue and yellow tones representing the colors of Boston’s official flag. The team logo is a protective shield encompassing an emboldened letter B, which has become synonymous with the city."
Starcraft fans should note that Kraft just recently introduced Chris "HuK" Loranger as the franchise president of gaming. HuK is an esports veteran with years of competition behind his belt. This decision from Boston assures that, at the very least, someone at the top of management knows how esports athletes should be treated and the unique problems they face.
