Watchdog bans Mobile Strike ad featuring "curvy" models and "real-sized" women in bikinis. Source article "They did not believe the ad objectified women," the ASA continued. Machine Zone also pointed to the use of curvy models in the ad as a nod to Mobile Strike's apparent diverse player base.  "diverse player base" I wonder what demographic they are targetting there..... "The intention was to feature 'real-sized' women and reference mythical warrior women like Amazons and Wonder Woman, as the women were seen making strategic moves in battle against one another," the ASA ruling reports of Machine Zone's response. Machine Zone goes on to claim that if the ad featured thin models, the complaint probably wouldn't have been made. "They said they had concerns that the complainant's objection was the size of the women featured rather than what they were wearing or doing in the ad," the ASA said. They suspected that had the women been typically thin models seen in ads, it was unlikely that a complaint would have been made. They had decided to feature real-sized women as a nod to their diverse player base." Machine Zone insisted it had not received a single complaint about the ad. Rather, it had received "considerable support" from players for featuring real-sized women, "as they were often under represented." The ASA, though, didn't have any of it, and upheld the complaint. Now you have a look at the video and tell me if this is the reason: https://www.hooktube.com/watch?v=7X_j6ZzFOUg Read the fucking comments section.
