A compact, heavy sans with a pronounced forward slant and tightly fitted proportions. Letterforms are built from broad, uniform strokes with rounded-rectangle curves and squared-off terminals, giving counters a slightly squashed, superelliptical feel. The overall rhythm is dense and energetic, with short ascenders/descenders and sturdy bowls; diagonals (V, W, X, Y, K) read sharp and forceful, while round letters (O, C, G) stay thick and closed-in.
Best suited to large-scale applications where impact matters: posters, titles, sports and esports identities, punchy branding, and packaging callouts. It also works well for short UI labels or badges when set with generous spacing, but it’s primarily a display face rather than a text workhorse.
The tone is assertive and fast, evoking sports branding, action headlines, and high-impact promotional typography. Its slant and compact build add a sense of motion, while the heavy weight communicates strength and immediacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a compressed, slanted silhouette—combining rounded-rectangle construction with bold, uniform strokes to create a modern, high-energy display voice.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, industrial geometry, and the numerals are similarly chunky and attention-grabbing. In continuous text the tight internal spaces and dense color create strong headline presence but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes or in long paragraphs.
