A heavy, oblique sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are broad and stable with clean, uniform terminals and tight internal apertures, giving the letters a dense, compact feel. Curved forms (C, G, O, S, 0) read as superelliptical, while diagonals and joins are sturdy and simplified for clarity at large sizes. Numerals share the same chunky proportions and rounded geometry, maintaining consistent color and rhythm across lines.
Best suited for display applications where strong presence and immediacy matter—sports and esports branding, athletic apparel, poster headlines, promotional graphics, and punchy packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or section headers when a forceful, motion-oriented voice is desired, but the dense counters make it less ideal for long passages at smaller sizes.
The overall tone is assertive and high-energy, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests motion and momentum. Its smooth, rounded shapes keep the mood contemporary and approachable while still feeling tough and performance-driven.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a streamlined, speed-forward italic structure and rounded, superelliptical forms. It prioritizes bold legibility and a cohesive, modern silhouette for branding and headline settings.
The letterforms emphasize silhouette and speed over fine detail, with minimal modulation and visibly narrowed counters in several glyphs. Spacing appears designed to hold together in tight, impactful settings, helping words form solid blocks of black for headline use.
