There are so many cool commercials between ATX matches.

Pick your favorite.

I go with Gypsy Band. Funny, entertaining and I pretty much like the self-irony... Good job!

Gyspy Band's ad is the best

I do like TEST's with the record for most rifters build and most rifters lost

OTEC's troll ad is a good troll

It's not been nice, but thanks for using lube

I think I like the OTEC commercial the most, they've pretty much nailed the cocky monopoly abusing corporation tone. Kind of a flashback from Civilization: Alpha Centauri and Morgan Industries. And OCP from Robocop. And well, any fictional megacorporation ever.

Gypsy Band's ad is probably the most creative (yet so simple) that I can think of. Pretty bored of these dubstep laced "let's show things blow up in massive blobs" videos.

Gypsy Band is my favorite, because it's not like all the others "imma show you my supercaps in the face with dubstep".

OTEC, HUN and Gypsy Band are the best ones. If I truly had to pick just one, it'd probably be HUN's just for taking the **** out of the rest of the THIS IS A SERIOUS GAME AND WE ARE AN EPIC ALLIANCE LOOK AT THESE SCREENSHOTS commercials the rest of the alliances seemed to field.

I personally like the Rote Kapelle ad more than OTEC.

Especially the claim is pretty awesome "Making people dock since 2008". Großartig.

The origin of our ad is an indecent in which one Will Clark responded to our presence in local with:

Will Clark > We know you are out there, and we are docked up.

This quickly turned into a meme in our Alliance, and we often pasted links to a picture of dogfort with that quote in the systems local chat while passing through.

Edit: The system was FD- which is notorious for housing campers whom dock up when ever anything larger than a frigate comes into local.

Only one somewhat entertaining is the Gypsy Band one. Worst by far is HUN Reloaded, showing blob footage, combined with those comments (they'd worked if they were ironic, or more flattering, now there're just inbetween).. it just makes them look like your average crappy blob group. Even TEST looks professional next to that. P

AFK-cloaking in a system near you.
