A heavy, forward-slanted sans with tightly compacted, angular construction and a pronounced rightward shear. Strokes are thick and largely monoline, with sharp corners and frequent cut-in notches that create fast, segmented terminals and counters. The letterforms lean on blocky silhouettes with squared bowls and truncated joins, producing a chiseled, machined texture. Spacing appears relatively tight in text, and the overall rhythm is driven by repeated diagonal cuts and wedge-like apertures rather than curves.
Best suited to short, emphatic display copy such as headlines, sports or motorsport graphics, promotional posters, and game or entertainment interfaces. It performs well where a compact, aggressive texture is desirable, while longer paragraphs or small-size reading may be less comfortable due to the dense weight and notched detailing.
The tone is high-energy and assertive, reading like speed, impact, and competition. Its sharp notches and steep slant add a kinetic, edgy attitude that feels at home in action-oriented and arcade-like contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a speed-driven, high-impact display voice using a strong slant, blocky geometry, and recurring cutaway details to imply motion and toughness without relying on ornament or serif structure.
Distinctive horizontal cutaways appear across multiple glyphs, giving a consistent ‘sliced’ motif that increases visual momentum but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes. Numerals and capitals maintain the same angular logic, keeping the system cohesive in display settings.
