Goal

Logos in the gaming industry are known to be vibrant and expressive to catch the audience's attention. Strife's logo design strayed from this principle, leading designers to follow suit to maintain cohesion within the lore.

Execution

There were many elements to consider when designing this logo. I wanted it to be reminiscent of Strife's logo without losing the sense of individuality that this game brought as the first single-player experience included in a MOBA. The sun rising and the dawn was a very symbolic idea within the game, and I wanted to bring that through in the logo while keeping it subtle.

Challenges

Strife's logo's simplicity made it increasingly difficult to find a balance between these two entities while remaining true to the world. I did my best to play with curves to bring the idea of the sun without explicitly depicting the star.
