While this is all great, and hopefully a step in the right direction, the biggest thing I can see to help with balancing is to actually make mid-season changes. I mean, we go thru a PTR session, we make our complaints, blizzard doesn't do anything... maybe cuz they think it's ptr, or maybe they don't care about our conccerns, or maybe they think our concerns are invalid. But then the season starts, and several specs are clearly above the rest, and people cry for fixes, but again, changes are NEVER made.
So we whine and complain for a full season until something is changed and at that point it no longer matters. All we want is for equal competition among classes, and fixing obvious problems regularly is the way to ensure a happy PVP populace. Yes, all these top-tier players will hopefully help resolve some of the unnecessary CC issues in the game, but CC is only part of the issue. How certain classes deal with CC is another issue.... for instance, a shaman can get out of a fear and top a partner up no problem, but druids are a whole different story. I'm just saying that mid-season changes are a NECESSITY when it comes to a balanced season.
