Decks & Graphics

Editorial presentation and graphic design, made alongside product design at Savicore.

Alongside the product, I designed Savicore's presentation decks and social graphics: investor and partnership decks, templates for community tournaments, and two decks about the esports team Vivo Keyd Stars (VKS). I made the VKS decks as part of my work at Savicore, at the request of my manager there. I have never worked for VKS.

The highlight is the VKS 2026 season deck, an editorial recap of the team's five-year project.

My role
Designer at Savicore. The VKS decks were requested by my manager at Savicore; I never worked for VKS.
Contribution
Deck design, editorial layout, typography, image editing and compositing, social graphics
Outcome
Five decks and a set of reusable social templates, used in presentations and on Savicore's channels.
All work
Deck cover with the VKS players standing together in purple jerseys, a vertical Projeto 2026 label, and the team logo.

01 / A note on the VKS work

Made at Savicore, not for VKS as an employer.

I have never worked for, or been employed by, Vivo Keyd Stars. Both VKS decks were made during my time at Savicore, at the request of Christopher "SeeEl" Lee, my manager at Savicore, who was also VKS's head coach.

Photography belongs to VKS and its photographers. My work was the layout, typography, image treatment, and compositing.

02 / Openers

Type as image.

The 2026 deck recaps a five-year project and sets up the next season, so I designed it like a magazine rather than a slide template. Section openers carry most of the drama: a high-contrast serif set at poster scale, cropped and interlocked with cut-out photography, and a restrained purple drawn from the team's identity.

Section opener with the word PROCESSO set in huge serif letters across a photo of a player, with smaller photos layered in.
Section opener with APRENDIZADOS in large serif type below a diamond-shaped photo frame of a player.
Section opener with the words COACHING STAFF in huge serif type over a black-and-white photo of the coaches.
Four tall portrait panels of the coaching staff side by side, each labelled with a name.
Slide with VKS set vertically on the left, a player portrait in the centre, and 2026 set vertically on the right in large serif numerals.
Mostly white slide with a player cut-out on the left, a vertical name, and the question O que acontece quando sair in serif.
Closing slide with VKS and 2026 in large serif type and two figures in front of vertical lettering.
Final slide with an enormous VKS monogram overlapping photos of the team in purple.

03 / System

One set of rules, many layouts.

Inside the sections, a small system keeps thirty-five slides consistent. A serif and a condensed italic sans handle the type. Oversized numerals act as structure and image masks, a diagonal band carries quotes, and every photo is cut out and graded to the same purple. Each player section repeats the pattern (number, portrait, label), so the deck reads as one piece even though every slide is composed individually.

Timeline slide with a serif title, a photo collage, a curved arrow, and a list of seasons with a large faded year in the corner.
Principles slide with a grid of black-and-white photos and one photo highlighted in purple.
Slide titled Errar faz parte do processo with a player photo and three numbered steps, the third highlighted.
Revisiting the plan slide with a large 01 numeral masking a photo, a diagonal quote band, and a video still.
Revisiting the plan slide with a large 02 numeral, a player portrait, and a tilted video still.
Revisiting the plan slide with a large 03 numeral, a player cut-out, and a diagonal band of quotes.
Slide composed of photo fragments inside large numerals 2 and 5, with the text Um novo ciclo se inicia.
Roster slide with five players side by side and a translucent VKS 2026 monogram behind them.

04 / Other decks

Structure first, then style.

The other decks were more text-led and needed clarity more than drama.

Projeto Keyd 2025 (Nov 2024).

The first VKS deck presented the team's plans for the 2025 season: a light and a purple layout family, consistent headers, and roster cards with each player's history.

Savicore presentation and investor decks.

Dark, restrained layouts close to the product, with serif headlines and a single red accent. I turned product designs into slides that explain features to non-designers.

Savicore + ExitLag partnership proposal.

A commercial deck structuring the partnership into clear offers, such as ambassador, discount program, and product placement, each with its own repeatable slide layout.

05 / Community graphics

Templates for every tournament.

For Savicore's community tournaments, I designed champions and MVP posts for social media as templates, so each new edition only needs names, champions, and stats swapped in.

Savicore Cup champions graphic with five champion artworks, player names, and bold CHAMPIONS type.
Savicore Cup MVP graphic with the player's name, a large KDA score, and red-toned champion art.

06 / Reflection

Systems work outside the product too.

The habit that shapes my product work shaped these decks: define a small set of rules (type, colour, a repeatable layout), then let each piece vary within them. That's what made fast-turnaround requests possible without the work looking rushed.
