A heavy, obliqued sans with squared, superelliptical curves and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are thick and clean with mostly uniform weight, relying on cut-in notches and angled terminals to create motion. Counters tend to be tight and rectangular-oval, and many joins are sharply chamfered, giving the alphabet a streamlined, engineered rhythm. The overall spacing feels compact and forward-leaning, with crisp horizontals and diagonals that read well at display sizes.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as sports identities, esports and gaming graphics, event posters, product marks, and bold interface accents. It excels when used large, where the squared curves and angled cuts are clearly visible and the forward motion becomes part of the message.
The tone is fast and performance-driven, combining a sporty slant with a modern, tech-like geometry. Its squared curves and aggressive terminals suggest speed, precision, and a slightly futuristic attitude, making it feel confident and high-impact rather than friendly or casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-speed, contemporary look by combining superelliptical construction with a pronounced slant and decisive, chamfered terminals. Its letterforms prioritize punch and momentum, aiming for a cohesive display voice that feels engineered and performance-oriented.
Distinctive details include the squared, rounded-rectangle bowls (notably in forms like O/0 and B/8), angled spur-like terminals on several letters, and numerals that echo the same aerodynamic, cut-corner logic. The slant and dense counters can reduce clarity at small sizes, but they help create a strong, cohesive texture in headlines.
