i think more so than the font, it’s the messy way they arranged the headshots they used for the players. could’ve framed them more elegantly and logically

The graphic design in general is questionable, not just the typography.

Kane – Bruh that weed was fire
Wally – Hey baby
Seider – Is taking a dump and hope people know

It just looks messy all around in my opinion. The headings and placement is terrible

The typography (specifically the headlines) are using different kinds of fonts on purpose. It’s a design choice; whether or not it’s a good design choice is up for debate..

It’s gotta be someone’s idea of a hip new font and it’s REAL bad.

The letters are alternating between serif and sans serif fonts… Is this new? I haven’t noticed this throughout the year.

New font?

Does it really matter? Do you go to their social media to see who’s starting?

I think it’s fun. A nice nod to the franchise rich tradition (serif) and the “new red wings” (sans) if you will. Plus, they were always so boring with graphics and media, it’s nice to see them trying new stuff.

This theme has been here since the start of the season. Most notable were in the in-arena animations with each letter changing to different fonts. They are copying the title scenes animation from the Loki TV series to the point of even using theme music from the Loki show in the in-arena intro video and player introductions.

As others mentioned, the changing fonts is distracting. The cropped faces of the players looks off-putting to me as well.
My son works professionally as a graphic artist at a fairly large organization. A consistant complaint of his is every dink in his office thinks they know how to design a logo, pamplet, graphic or web page. In reality, it take education, experiance, research and a natural eye to do it well.
That graphic looks like it was designed by some rando dink in the office.

Man the graphics designer phoned this one in hard. Can’t blame them if they’re getting paid to do it though. Probably wanted more but the request was adamant about this design so they made it work. Watched my friend who is a graphics designer bitch about it once. He was grumbling so bad and even made a gag so loud I could hear it over the music I was listening to. He used to say “What the customer wants is stupid and looks awful. But you put it together anyways and watch them happily stroll off with their gross piece of garbage. So long as they pay.”

I really like it! It reminds me of bionic font type for ADHD users. Not sure if it’s intentional but I wouldn’t be surprised given it’s designed for social media.
