All 5 variants, side by side
Each frame below is the preset’s real style block rendered as CSS — the same font, color, outline, card and animation Versely applies to your video. Nothing here is a screenshot.
What changes across the 5
Read straight off the preset definitions: the fields below that are fixed are what makes these one family, and the fields that vary are the whole of the choice between them. A variant page shows you one preset; this is the shape of the set.

Which variant holds up hardest
WCAG contrast ratio between each variant’s text and the thing it puts directly behind it — outline. This measures the preset against its own backing, not against your footage: it tells you which of the 5 gives the text the most separation to work with, not whether it will survive a particular shot.
| Variant | Text on | Contrast |
|---|---|---|
| Hype Black | Outline | 21.0:1 |
| Hype Purple | Outline | 5.7:1 |
| Hype Blue | Outline | 5.2:1 |
