A heavy, oblique sans with broad, rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Letterforms lean consistently forward with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and large internal counters that keep the black mass readable. Curves tend toward superelliptical shapes rather than perfect circles, and terminals are generally blunt or gently radiused, giving a molded, aerodynamic feel. Spacing reads moderately tight, with a compact rhythm in text and numbers that feel stable and punchy.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports and esports branding, and packaging where strong presence is needed. It can also work in logotypes and UI labels when a forward-moving, energetic voice is desired, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is fast and confident, with a bold, action-oriented slant that suggests motion. Its rounded geometry keeps it from feeling harsh, adding a friendly, slightly playful edge while still projecting strength and impact.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a streamlined, rounded geometry and a consistent forward slant. It prioritizes immediacy and recognition—optimized for display use where momentum, strength, and a contemporary feel are key.
The uppercase set feels engineered and sign-like, while the lowercase maintains the same sturdy geometry for cohesive text setting. Numerals share the same rounded, compact silhouettes, supporting strong emphasis in headlines and branding. In dense copy the weight and slant create a strong texture, making it most comfortable at larger sizes.
