This isn't a good way to judge either. Only takes 8 people right now - not hard to field a leet team to pwn while your average members get owned in pubs.
We could always rank corp on their ability to lose a corp battle so they can make isk in FW. How does that sound SoTa?
Bullshit public stats don't matter in ranking corps. As long as it only take 8/16/24/32 to take a district thats all that will matter.
I mean war ponits/ kills/ wins/ are just a summation of all its members. You think FW milita or nullsec fo rthat matter is going to pay corp based upon there total kills in pub matches vs corp battle record?
Based upon your thinking should a fw milita hire Zion TCD or Imperfects to take districts for them?
/me wins at interweb
Last statement is hard to answer. Zions decent enough and we can take 3 planets at once which would make any employer happy. But at the same time we would lose an entire planet if the imperfects stepped in. If the question is "Where do EvE corps look to find potentially skilled dust mercs." I'd say the average KDR would be your best bet. Otherwise their is layers to EvE side decisions. Like if they want this to be a campaigned event. Then imperfects wouldn't be the corp of choice - Zion would be more suited. But if they're looking to take a high priority planet expected to have heavy resistance - send the imperfects.
As for your first line - I think it's important that corps have a W/L tracking there corp battles so buyers can see what they're getting. Zion may win 100 corp battles but if they're done vs scrubs it should be recorded and noted.
I had so much more to say but alcohol fuzzes my mind
So let me break this down for you.
1- Zion TCD and the quantity to take 3 planets not the quality.
2- Imperfects and other corps like us that focus on quality will be able to acheive wins the majority of the time. When FW or nullsec alliances put billions of isk in fleets above the planet to support with OB and fight off other fleets they will want a higher rate of success then zion tcd can offer.
example zion tcd is paid to take a planet. planet owners contract imps, bunnies, syners, SI, WTF to defend planet. zion TCD goes 0-14. See corps dont have to be big to take/defend planets. The people that own will find the quality one to take and defend them.
3 so based on 1 and 2 above who should be ranked higher Zion tcd because of numbers or the other 5 corps that have less kills in public matches but just sent you home with a 0-14.
