The Kraft Group President of Gaming Chris “Huk” Lorranger is launching an expedition to Antarctica to scout unknown talent in the region to recruit onto the Boston Uprising roster in Stage Two.

We caught up with HuK as he was preparing his expedition’s departure. “I just think there will be a lot of talent in the region that hasn’t been tapped into by other teams yet,” he said. “The ANT region is just ripe for scouting, really.”

HuK seems unconcerned by the lack ofhuman talent. “I actually already swung by the region on my way back from Korea earlier in the year. You’d be surprised how smart the penguins are.”

“Besides, it’s not really about what the penguins are capable of at this very moment. You know Boston, we’re a team that focuses on coaching. If Tom Brady can win a Super Bowl at 41 years old, I can teach a penguin to play flex support.”

HuK was seen packing in some specialist keyboards and mice designed specifically for use by penguins. “The biggest challenge so far has actually been keeping the penguins in their seats. They just want to waddle around. You can teach a penguin to hold left click as Mercy but getting it to stay still is a whole other problem.”

“There’s this one penguin,” he continued. “I met him on my way through the region earlier in the year. A real prodigy. He calls himself PPoNaK.”

HuK will return fro his Antarctica expedition before the Uprising’s first game against the Atlanta Reign this stage. Stay posted for further updates on penguin
