There is a counter for anyone playing any race. It may require teamwork, some skill, and patience, but there is always a way. If you are trying to level, remember--winning a round gets you more overall experience (more money + kills) then losing over and over. Try playing a counter race, then when you die, switch to the race you are leveling and buy your tomes and switch back.
Pretty much this. While some people are downright whoring (*cough* Deathwish and co. *cough*) you can counter *ANY* race. There are some players who have either mastered game or just specific races and who end up being hard to actually counter (Spasm), but it's not really the race that is OP, it's the player. Granted, I would like the server to be more friendly for the newcomers as the server has died out quite a bit due to so much whoring, but with this community, it's very unlikely. Furthermore, I think I have a different thoughts about this just because I've maxed everything out and put in a lot of effort and learned the game and counters in the process, so it's no longer an issue for me personally, but I can see how it can be frustrating to new players.

TL;DR: There are counters to anything and everything and the balance itself isn't the problem - it's more so community and specific few individuals.
