A tightly condensed, right-slanted sans with heavy, compact letterforms and consistently low stroke modulation. Curves and counters resolve into rounded-rectangle shapes, giving bowls and apertures a superelliptical, machined feel. Terminals are blunt and squared-off, corners are softened rather than sharp, and joins stay sturdy to preserve dense black shapes. The overall rhythm is tall and compressed, with occasional width differences between glyphs that add a slightly irregular, display-driven texture.
Best suited for display settings where immediacy and strength matter: sports identities, event posters, esports or gaming graphics, and bold promotional headlines. It also fits apparel and product marks where a compact, high-impact wordshape is desirable, rather than long-form reading.
The tone is energetic and forceful, evoking speed, urgency, and competitive intensity. Its forward lean and chunky, compressed silhouettes suggest motion and impact, while the rounded corners keep it from feeling overly sharp or brittle.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint, combining a condensed build with a dynamic slant and rounded-rectangle geometry. It prioritizes speed, density, and assertive presence for branding and headline work.
In text, the tight spacing and dark color create a strong horizontal banding effect, especially in all-caps. Counters are small and ink-trap-free, favoring punchy mass over airy readability, which makes it most convincing at medium to large sizes.
