A heavy, slanted sans with crisp, faceted construction that replaces curves with straight planes and chamfered corners. Strokes stay essentially monolinear, with sharp terminals and frequent diagonal cuts that create a segmented, machined feel. Counters are generally narrow and polygonal, and many joins form hard angles rather than smooth transitions, producing a tight, forward-leaning rhythm. Numerals follow the same chiseled geometry, with clipped corners and a robust, blocky presence.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of copy where its sharp, engineered styling can carry the message. It fits well in sports identities, gaming and esports visuals, techno-oriented posters, product packaging for performance gear, and punchy UI labels where a strong, directional voice is desired.
The overall tone is fast and assertive, with a distinctly technical edge. Its sharp facets and forward slant suggest speed, machinery, and performance branding—more tactical and energetic than friendly or neutral.
Likely designed to deliver a high-impact, speed-driven display voice by combining a slanted stance with faceted, chamfered geometry. The consistent planar cuts and sturdy proportions emphasize clarity at larger sizes while projecting a mechanical, performance-forward character.
The angular cuts are consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, which helps it read as a cohesive system in headlines. In longer lines the dense shapes and tight internal space can make it feel intense, favoring display use over small-size text.
