New players on US pvp servers generally suffer from lack of population so the resources for their improvement (end content guilds that can offer content completion and pvp) are all but non existant- which results in lower quality players than the pve servers, for pvp and pve. I doubt any Tyranny/DW guild even runs t3 on a regular basis, and there is no t4 on any of these servers.
With limited minis and pvp, and no higher content raids going on, and only a limited number of veterans farming k6 instances amongst themselves (who play on Set as well), there's not much hope for a new PvP player on the US pvp servers.
