Secondly, mythics have dropped so far in value that many players who are regular PvPers can now obtain them. Previously, this was not the case. A mythic set will now cost somebody approximately 10M gold. Is that really that bad for an advantage? Players used to pay 30M for this same set.
Thirdly, going against somebody 1v1, sure, mythics are definitely going to win. However, in team play? I've had many players come on my team that were non-mythic players yet we still somehow end up winning the match. Why? It's simple, our team coordination was much better. In teamplay, these large 1v1 advantages that one sees is not as apparent anymore.
Lastly, those who do not have much money but still want to PvP and think that gear is the shortcoming, well, that's why there's twinking. Lets face it, a major reason why twinking was invented in many MMOs was to allow other players have their PvP fill without having to pay millions for the best gear.
