A compact, heavy, right-leaning sans with squared, superellipse-like counters and corners cut with consistent chamfers. Strokes stay largely even, producing a dense, blocky color, while openings and apertures are kept tight for a streamlined silhouette. Round letters resolve into rounded-rectangle forms (notably in O/C/G and the numerals), and terminals often end in flat, clipped edges that emphasize a mechanical rhythm. Spacing reads firm and efficient, with a sturdy baseline presence and a slightly forward-driving stance.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing text such as headlines, team or event branding, esports and streaming graphics, posters, and punchy packaging callouts. It also works well for UI badges, labels, and product marks where a compact, high-energy presence is needed, while longer paragraphs may feel visually intense due to its dense color and tight apertures.
The overall tone is fast, tough, and contemporary, combining a sporty urgency with a technical, engineered feel. Its slant and clipped geometry suggest motion and impact, making the voice feel assertive rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a forward-leaning, high-impact display voice using a squared, chamfered geometry that stays consistent across the set. By keeping forms compact and counters rounded-rectangular, it aims for a modern, performance-oriented look that remains cohesive in both letters and numbers.
Curves are controlled and boxy, with counters that remain rectangular even in traditionally round glyphs, giving the face a consistent industrial coherence. Numerals follow the same squared construction, keeping a unified texture across alphanumerics. The design favors strong silhouettes and high contrast against the background through mass and compactness rather than stroke modulation.
