A heavy, right-leaning display face built from broad, compact shapes with sharply cut corners and faceted joins. The letterforms are mostly squarish and geometric, but the contours are intentionally irregular, with rough, blade-like nicks and uneven edges that read as distressed or brush-carved. Counters tend to be tight and rectangular, terminals are abrupt, and diagonals and shoulders show a consistent slashed treatment that creates a rhythmic, aggressive texture across words. Numerals share the same chunky construction, with simplified, high-impact silhouettes.
This font is most effective for short display lines where texture and attitude matter more than neutrality—posters, packaging callouts, event graphics, game or action-themed titling, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for punchy pull-quotes or merch-style typography when set large enough to keep the rough cuts legible.
The overall tone is loud and combative, with a DIY, streetwear-meets-action-title attitude. Its ragged cuts and forward motion suggest speed, impact, and a slightly chaotic, anti-polished sensibility suited to attention-grabbing statements.
The design appears intended to fuse a sturdy, block-based skeleton with deliberate abrasion and forward-leaning momentum, producing a distinctive, high-impact voice. It prioritizes character and visual punch over refinement, aiming for a one-off, stylized look that feels kinetic and rugged.
Spacing appears relatively tight in running settings, amplifying the dense, poster-like color. The distressed detailing is a key part of the identity and can begin to fill in at smaller sizes, so it reads best when given room to breathe.
