As far as title rewards go, we've been going back and forth on this and we're not consistent. We've had LB rewards that are a mix of tradable, stashable, and bound. I would prefer everything to be tradable so players can merch whatever they want, but some LB runners want exclusive bound rewards that showed they completed something special/difficult. Unfortunately, tradable LB rewards mean players will play with alts and potentially hog rewards. While this isn't technically against the terms, it's somewhat like Halloween candy. Sure, you can take the whole bowl, but should you?
Since we've wanted at least the LB vanities to be tradable, for the last few events, we settled on titles/badges for now. Since event tiers can be farmed, most tier rewards will be bound with the exception of a few rewards in the equivalent of Platinum tier.
I've been designing an 'Accolade' system, a way to show all of the accomplishments on your character (a list of every event you participated in and your placement). This won't stop LB farming though, since players that do this will not only receive their LB rewards, they'll receive their accolade as well.
Alternatively, it would also be nice to go to the leaderboard viewer and see all past leaderboard results. Unfortunately, character renames, name trading, banned characters, etc. all get in the way of making the leaderboard viewer a reality. Maybe we could at least have a AL Leaderboards section of the forums that displays results for every past event.
We still have no plans to adjust the existing tradability status of items.
