A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and tight, energetic spacing. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with rounded corners and softened joins that keep the dense weight from feeling brittle. The curves are built from confident ellipses, while diagonals (A, K, V, W, X, Y, Z) lean forward with a brisk rhythm; counters are relatively small and openings are controlled. Several shapes show subtle notch-like cut-ins at joins and terminals, creating an ink-trap/slot effect that adds texture and helps internal spaces stay readable at size.
Best used for large-scale typography where impact matters: headlines, posters, sports and esports identities, product packaging, and bold UI callouts. It can also work for short subheads and captions when set with generous line spacing, but its dense weight and compact counters favor display sizes over long-form reading.
The overall tone is fast and forceful, projecting a sporty, headline-ready confidence. Its forward slant and compact counters create a sense of motion and urgency, making it feel suited to high-impact, contemporary branding rather than quiet text settings.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a forward-leaning, athletic stance, pairing rounded geometry with thick strokes for a modern, high-energy look. Subtle cut-ins at joins suggest an effort to preserve clarity in tight, heavy shapes while adding a distinctive, engineered texture.
Uppercase forms read sturdy and condensed-by-weight, with a rounded, blocky ‘G’ and a squat ‘S’ that emphasize mass and momentum. Lowercase has a single-storey ‘a’ and ‘g’, simple dot forms, and a chunky, geometric ‘t’, keeping the style cohesive between cases. Numerals are similarly weighty and rounded, with strong silhouettes designed to hold up in bold compositions.
