There are plenty free of non-browser/mobile MMO games where non paying players still have a good chance of being on the leaderboard or doing well in PvP based games, though those games are less about buying your way to the top and more about the players skills, which is why I mentioned nutaku specifically, because ones skill is near irrelevant when it comes to nutaku games, it's all about money and luck for the majority of these games.
