Most successful is, imo, Band of Brothers. Alliances come and go, but I didn't like how BoB ended. But it accellerated their end anyhow.
I think Roadkill had great success. Controlling whole region of Geminate for over a year and booting anyone from it was awesome. Granted its crap region, but still! I still remember the "final" battle that sealed the fate of RK's end and I lost 5-6 vultures in the same battle to defend some strategic POS. |

bob was a good washington generals of eve i suppose, once ASCN gave up that title, but that's pretty much the most positive thing you could say about them
not many alliances take on a newbie corporation without even any sov space and wind up being driven out of the game in response |

I would almost agree with you there except they were cleared out by TCF who later gave away their space to Goonswarm. Which is why Goonswarm has their space at all. They didn't even earn it and this is why Goonswarm doesn't make the list.
LMAO
stopping the DRF pet deathball cold in its tracks after they annihilated the NC without any meaningful resistance is a whole lot more impressive than sov-warfaring a region to the ground. And of course, the Goons have done that a few dozen times too... |

BoB. They were the best for so long.
Then CVA for being so unique in what they did.

PL are truly amazing at what they do, but as they refuse to take part in the nulsec game they are basically chickening out of consequences and reprisals, ie logging of with no risk does not equal winning.
Most famous is probably BoB and Goons, there war was a staple of EVE for a few years, and very famous mostly due to the enormous forum PR machine that was on both sides. Goons eventually beat BoB, then in a real irony basically became BoB mk2.
A few have mentioned CVA, they have/had done something unique granted, sticking with there whole nrds thing made there chosen area one of the most populated area's in nulsec a few years back, but they have also lost that area three times or so.
Who do I think is winning EVE, simple the Russians. Far as I know, they as a whole are the most unmovable block in eve, Some of the oldest alliances holding space for years and years, virtually untouched in so long. But saying that they suffer the same stagnant attitude of the big guns in that they wont attack another mega alliance.
Thats kinda the problem with who is truly winning EVE, none of the possible winners dare go against any of the other big ones, its all gone a bit stale cept for the occasional wtfpwn of some nobodies nothing is changing.
So need another mega war. |

Goon assembled outside EVE. That might be the case for all the successfull alliances in EVE. Much like effective fleet warfare hinged on teamspeak and 3rd party applications, EVE seems to be what you do beyond the game. |

I think Triumvirate were the best at PVP as previously mentioned, the reason they lost the space to TCF was mostly due to the internal bickering at the time and it was breaking up - But tbh Tri was better when it wasn't about holding space.
BoB will always be the most historic of corps as it had its hand in ALL the pies.
PL now I believe is the Alliance with the most influence on the game.
But, big but. I think RvB needs some credit not most successful but most successful at getting more pilots into PvP.
So I agree with a previous comment where someone mentioned most successful at what..... It seems that most people have the same top 4 or 5 in different orders.

Going with goons:
First, they have changed the way many people think about the game and how to run an alliance.
The understanding that you can't successfully force your members to do your bidding if they don't want to may sound trivial but is a pretty big deal.
The results of these insights - no CTAs, no tax hikes during ops, but a huge emphasis on making people want to do boring things by embedding these things into compelling narratives - are spreading across the alliance boundaries and will continue to spread in the future.
Second, they successfully built up TEST as an independent alliance but injected them with their own cultural values, organizational knowledge, etc. Now they try to repeat the incubator experiment with ESG (and one could say that in time they will have bred their very own NC  ).
That's a bold move and an hitherto unheard-of reliance on "soft power" over the military/economic/... dependency structures usually found between most alliances and their "pets".
The TEST/PL friendship shows the risks of this approach but on the whole it seems to be working out pretty well for GSF. |

All 3 of them were excellent PVP entities. PL copied their style, and later, members.
But in terms of produced drama and tears, Goons are the best :) Eve wouldn't be the same with them gone.

1. Band Of Brothers.. No doubt about this one tbh, eve became a boring place without them. The alliance everyone loved to hate, but nobody could beat without disbanding the entire alliance.
2. Curse Alliance. Ah, the truly good old days of eve, with station ping pong and everything.
3. Morsus Mihi: For having created the Carebear utopia wich lasted for years and gave everyone a awesome place to roam and get kills.
4. ASCN: The inspiration for all carebear alliances that wanted to try and claim a bit of space for their own.
5. Mercenary coalition: They were the original merc alliance, and did their job damn well back in the days. Allways on the front when it came to using new tech to their advantage, and used t2 and caps while most others were flying around in crappy t1 ships.

You should define it more and find stats on certain area-¦s like:
-Witch alliances are involded in killing other alliacnes
-Witch allaices are killing more numbers than others
-Witch alliances have good k/d
-Witch allaicnes have good efficienty
-Witch alliances have sov held for xx amount of time and how much
-Witch allaices are stable (no internal drama, kicks leaving ect)
-Witch alliances are concidered top notch in public eyes
-ect u get the point
hint: if u know what something is not, u also know what it is
Have fun finding the data, prolly top 5 exist in random order out of:
-A-
