I suggest that for a future race, it isn't for a monster. Instead it's for gem chests, the further up the league you get the higher the reward. You can also include generic cells rewards (light,dark,earth etc).
This will give the option for us to upgrade monsters that we already have and help us reclaim gems we all spend on the races.

@s-i-c Spend gems to get gems ?

I already have more legendary than I can put in my habitats, I am saying that instead of doing another monster, give us a way to upgrade what we already have as a reward.

I totally agree with @esentis that makes absolutely no sense at all

@s-i-c for that we have Elementals or Elementium for ranking up . . . And with the Elemental change on Epics it's way easier. The idea of a race is to introduce a new monster as a reward, changing that I think it's pointless. Why am I going to spend gems on getting sort of elementals when I can extract them for free using Epics? And spending gems to get gems back doesn't sound viable imo

@s-i-c what do you do about the people who won't spend gems then?
