The WH scene was very different in 2013 from nowadays. The most active PvP group was the now small BLOOD UNION: Below you can see the corps of the alliance with more than 100B of its activity:

Rank	Corp	B Damage done	B Damage taken	ISK ratio
1	Syndicate of Death	1234	102	92
2	Quantum Explosion	959	136	88
3	Synergy Group	517	91	85
-	Sum of small ones	191	46	80
-	Total	2901	376	89

Below you can see what alliances contributed more than 100B to the killboard of the analyzed one.

Rank	Alliance	B Damage done	B Damage taken	ISK ratio
1	W-Space	141	61	70
2	Red Alliance	150	4	98
-	Sum of small ones	2610	311	89
-	Total	2901	376	89

The inflation factor of this alliance is: 114% which is very small. BU was mostly flying alone.

Below you can see the monthly activity distribution chart. "Month" is here 1/12 year and not exact calendar month. Also, sorry for the ASCII graph, but creating so many proper image charts would be exreme work for all the alliances. Colors refer to ISK ratios, pure red means below 20%.

Below you can see the 2B+ losses of the alliance: 4B, 4B, 2B, 4B, 3B, 4B, 5B, 4B, 4B, 7B, 6B, 3B, 7B, 2B, 8B, 7B, 3B, 4B, 6B, 6B, 5B, 6B, 7B, 7B, 7B, 6B, 3B, 2B, 4B, 14B, 2B, 4B, 4B, 4B, 4B, 5B,

This is the space distribution of the alliance, sorted by activity (losses+damage), showing clear WH focus:

Rank	Space	B Damage done	B Damage taken	ISK ratio
1	C5 Wormhole	1746	143	92
2	C6 Wormhole	881	137	87
-	Sum of small ones	274	95	74
-	Total	2901	376	89

This is the ship value distribution of the alliance. The total population has equal damage done and taken in all 6 groups. Please note that "Ships killed" is also de-inflated, if the alliance did 1% damage to a ship, they get 0.01 kill:

Ship value groups	Ships killed	B Damage done	Ships lost	B Damage taken
0-64M	2000	31	175	4
65-158M	756	79	184	19
159-317M	524	115	82	18
318-877M	498	284	149	89
878-2501M	345	522	64	76
2502M+	434	1870	32	170
Total	4558	2901	686	376

It's obvious that they were both flying and killing capitals and bling.

This is the battle size distribution of the alliance. The total population has equal damage done and taken in all 6 groups.

Ixtab.

Below you can see the corps of the alliance with more than 100B of its activity:

Rank	Corp	B Damage done	B Damage taken	ISK ratio
1	Atztech Inc.	1121	148	88
2	Eve Ryuken	178	20	90
-	Sum of small ones	20	6	76
-	Total	1320	174	88

None of their enemies alliances lost+killed 100B, meaning Ixtab was ganking small groups all around.

The inflation factor of this alliance is: 117%, meaning no significant helper, obviously.

Below you can see the monthly activity distribution chart. "Month" is here 1/12 year and not exact calendar month. Also, sorry for the ASCII graph, but creating so many proper image charts would be exreme work for all the alliances. Colors refer to ISK ratios, pure red means below 20%.

Below you can see the 2B+ de-inflated contribution kills of the alliance: 2B, 3B, 3B, 2B, 3B, 4B, 5B, 3B, 2B, 2B, 3B, 2B, 3B, 3B, 4B, 2B, 3B, 2B, 9B, 2B, 2B, 5B, 5B, 2B, 3B, 4B, 3B, 3B, 4B, 4B, 5B, 4B, 4B, 4B, 5B, 6B, 5B, 4B, 4B, 4B, 4B, 2B, 2B, 5B, 2B, 3B, 3B, 2B, 3B, 3B, 2B, 4B, 3B, 3B, 4B, 2B, 5B, 4B, 3B, 3B, 3B, 3B, 3B, 2B, 6B, 3B, 6B, 2B, 4B, 2B, 4B, 12B, 3B, 4B, 2B, 3B, 2B, 5B, 3B, 2B, 3B, 3B, 3B, 4B, 2B, 2B, 3B, 2B, 4B, 3B, 3B, 2B, 4B, 4B, 3B, 4B, 2B, 3B, 3B, 4B, 3B, 2B, 2B, 7B, 3B, 2B, 4B, 4B, 4B, 2B, 2B, 2B, 2B, 3B, 4B, 3B, 2B, 3B, 5B, 4B, 5B, 4B, 4B, 4B, 5B, 3B, 2B, 4B, 5B, 3B, 3B, 4B, 2B, 2B, 2B, 3B, 2B, 2B, 2B, 3B, 2B, 2B,

Below you can see the 2B+ losses of the alliance: 4B, 4B, 3B, 4B, 3B, 3B, 6B,

This is the space distribution of the alliance, sorted by activity (losses+damage), showing clear WH focus, but unlike BU, they avoided C6:

Rank	Space	B Damage done	B Damage taken	ISK ratio
1	C5 Wormhole	765	81	90
2	C2 Wormhole	112	14	89
-	Sum of small ones	443	79	85
-	Total	1320	174	88

This is the ship value distribution of the alliance. The total population has equal damage done and taken in all 6 groups. Please note that "Ships killed" is also de-inflated, if the alliance did 1% damage to a ship, they get 0.01 kill:

Ship value groups	Ships killed	B Damage done	Ships lost	B Damage taken
0-64M	1834	36	248	7
65-158M	878	91	110	11
159-317M	610	133	78	17
318-877M	546	300	94	54
878-2501M	246	367	48	59
2502M+	101	393	7	27
Total	4216	1320	585	174

This is the battle size distribution of the alliance. The total population has equal damage done and taken in all 6 groups.

So top WH PvP-er groups have very high ISK ratio, fly alone, fight in WHs, fly medium sized gangs, use and kill expensive ships.
