To the OP: The common denominator of your play experience before and after you spent $40 on gear is you. Did you ever consider that even when you upgraded from a Toyota Yaris to that Ferrari, that you just aren't very good at racing?
I decided to gear down and used what I had in Glory and under 50k in AD to get back on the T1 Indom set. I went back to my Brutal Scimitar and chose cheap gear with crit and arpen. It's funny, because I placed 1st tonight for the 1st time (only once), but the performance I am getting from the cheap set (only Rank 5 or 6, nothing fancy) is way better than my uber T2 set.
PvP is a game of burst damage, so crit and arpen are the way to go. A lot of the T2 sets aren't very impressive in any sense, and even less so in PvP. Stacking ArPen, Regen, and Crit on a GF with the right combo of powers and decent skill at PvP makes for some fairly monstrous numbers that rock at PvP but are less useful in dungeons. With a good team, it's less important if you're looking for wins rather than kills.
The right to command is earned through duty, the privilege of rank is service.

Yep, right on. You can get great results even with non-set epics stacking ArP/Crit, and it will cost you ~12k AD to get 4 pieces...

We are definitely dominating, and we are always about to win.
I spent $40 last night, The best I did all day is second, more or less I was near the bottom every single match.
. It is absolutely about P2W
Not getting it. You paid, and you did not win?
Also, maybe PvP Domination is not as PvP as you think. My green, f2p GF usually has much more deaths than kills, but my team usually wins. That is, I kill no one but I keep bouncing them away from my base. And when they come with three ppl to kill me, it gives to my teammates the advantage of numbers on the two other bases.
That is, from my point of view, I win. And I paid nothing.

Ideal PvP gear for a GF doesn't include much if anything in the way of set pieces. Of course, it does look completely insane.

Lol! proof positive that this game isn't simply P2W, there has to be some intelligence involved =P
