Esports Gamer Review Card

Aggressive, angular, and technically the most interesting card here: clipped corners via clip-path, a neon edge painted as a second clipped layer behind the card, a scanline overlay and rank tags. Every effect is a gradient or a polygon — no images, no SVG filters, no blend-mode tricks that fall apart on mobile.

How this works

Cut corners come from a polygon, and the trick to keeping a visible neon edge is to clip twice — the wrapper draws the glow, the inner card sits 2 px inside with the same shape:

--cut: 22px;
--shape: polygon(var(--cut) 0, 100% 0, 100% calc(100% - var(--cut)),
                 calc(100% - var(--cut)) 100%, 0 100%, 0 var(--cut));
.frame { clip-path: var(--shape); background: var(--neon); }
.card  { clip-path: var(--shape); margin: 2px; background: var(--surface); }

A regular border cannot follow a clip-path, which is why the two-layer approach is the standard solution. Both layers share one custom property, so changing --cut reshapes the whole card.

The scanlines are a repeating gradient at 4% opacity, and the diagonal energy sweep is a single skewed pseudo-element animated on translate only:

.card::after {
  background: linear-gradient(100deg, transparent 40%,
              oklch(1 0 0 / .07) 50%, transparent 60%);
  animation: sweep 5s linear infinite;
}

Rank and handle tags use monospace with wide tracking and a small clipped notch, which is the visual grammar of competitive gaming UI. The verified-player badge is the same check-in-circle used elsewhere in this collection — consistency across a component library beats novelty per component.

Contrast discipline still applies: body copy sits at oklch lightness 0.93 on a 0.17 surface, comfortably above 4.5:1, and the neon is used only for edges, tags and numbers — never for running text.

Make it yours

  • Change one variable for a different silhouette: --cut: 0 gives a rectangle, 34 px gives a heavily chamfered esports panel.
  • Team-color the card by setting --tr-20-neon per instance — the frame, tags, glow and stat numbers all derive from it.
  • Add a live-status dot with the pulse keyframe from demo 17 for streamers who are currently online.
  • Swap the sweep for a slow hue rotation on the frame using @property (see demo 17) if you want the border to cycle team colours.

Gotchas — read before shipping

  • clip-path clips box-shadows and focus outlines completely. Draw the glow as a separate blurred layer behind, and give focus states an inner ring instead of an outline.
  • Neon text on near-black is a contrast trap: saturated cyan at 14 px often fails. Reserve neon for large numerals and edges.
  • Clipped cards cannot use overflow: hidden for rounded images inside — clip the child separately with its own path or radius.
  • Heavy scanline overlays interfere with screenshots and OCR, and can trigger discomfort for photosensitive users. Keep them under 6% opacity and static.
  • Gaming UI attracts stacked effects — glow plus sweep plus tilt plus particles. Pick two. The card above uses an edge glow and a slow sweep and stops there.

Floor set by oklch(), color-mix(), text-wrap as this demo is written. The core technique itself goes back further — Chrome 55+.

clip-path polygon() is supported everywhere since 2020, as are repeating gradients. oklch() raises the floor to Chrome 111 / Safari 16.4 / Firefox 113 — swap in hex fallbacks if you need older support.
