In terms of team builds it really does just depend on your roster - take a look at the top guys who attack you and get a feel for what they are using and also look at how many relics folk have on each toon. Closer to the top relics are making the biggest difference. The folks on here who do the big PVP numbers most weeks are miles ahead of the rest of us as they put the hours in to get the IC to then invest in relics so there a lot of folk who are just a league above the majority of us - that likely wont change much though there will be catch up from the rest of us once they are maxed out on them (however long that takes to do!)
So maybe where you are in PVP is good for you for now - as soon as you start getting into top 100 and more so the top 50 it gets super tough for most of us as the top guys are just so far on from the pack.....but we can always get the odd win of course! Anyway, unless you are topped up on relics my advice would be to not push to hard into the top parts of the PVP ladder until you feel you are using a strong enough attack team - there was a period a few months ago where I was trying to get top 50 and was just getting owned and my attack success was arounf 70% - I gave up as I just did not have the team and losing 3 out of 10 battles was bad (it usually was good for the first few days after reset but as I climbed the numbers were going to sometimes 50/50 win loss).
That's just me of course! Eventually I got relics up and got my attack team to a strongish position (I tend ot stick with the same team for a period of time or set up three and just switch when required) my defence was doing OK to and things started to change around - Primordial made a big difference for a short while too so meta changes can swing in yoru favour from time to time too.
Goos luck.
