Rux Rewards for Grand Master Ranks

Some kind of actual reward for grandmaster would be great. With nothing to spend coins on, the normal GW feeling of always getting coins is lost as this is the first PvZ shooter where coins become superfluous. Even just a few rainbow stars or letting us spend all these coins to buy them would be much better than what we have now.

@themightylaymanI don't get it. I agree with you, they're never going to give players who reach grandmaster free stars. Which is why I said what I said. Prolonged grind just like GW2, no need to create new cosmetics that go into the reward-o-tron, and 500k isn't very grindy. You're also not forced to play modes you don't like.

One thing is CERTAIN, we will not get this grand master reward (or any other), if the devs don’t know we’re unhappy with the current setup.

I don’t know whether you saw but the 2nd Rainbow Stars Gift (300 star gift) was likely a direct result of this thread:  https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Another-Round-of-Bulbs-PLEASE/m-p/8414344#M7154

I encourage you to give the devs and EA staff a little more credit.  Though we often disagree with their decisions, we can be heard as a collective voice when the likes and me too’s climb high enough. 👍😊

In this instance, hearing our collective opinion (and implementing a reward) would actually benefit devs and gamers alike by extending the play time of those of us who like to max rank characters:   https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Grand-Master-of-wasting-time/m-p/8480628#M8382

I’ve long waited for this to be acknowledged by staff and anticipated a social backlash from it.... many of the VOCAL gamers online like to group together to play.  In GW2, there was a few groups of toxic people (understatement of the decade) that @dwooten77  showed me on YouTube/introduced me to in-game and you’d watch these little guys stream and they flat-out refuse to enter a lobby without their buddies.  

If team swap isn’t removed, the matchmaking changes will be for naught. (Big font to devs 😊💚.)

EDIT: autocorrect revenge 

As @spIash_damage just posted and we've talked about in the past, they need to fix team swapping as part of the team balancing changes. If they both attempt to balance lobbies and keep them as balanced as they can (i.e. not so much team swapping/stacking) things will be much more enjoyable.

I know I’ve been absent but I still have faith.  The trellis board was an excellent idea.  That being said, I’m still skeptical of the issue being resolved.  This being the only shooter franchise I’ve played, are there other games that implement good matchmaking?  I heard TF2 or whatever had a good system.  What about with your experiences in other online multiplayer games?
