Achievements

[GilmoreVisuals]

I see that the achievements will soon come, just in case it's not been thought of; there could be stats like

Most consecutive games won = prize (3 in a row, 5 in a row etc)
Total time played = prize (every hour for example)

Maybe some prizes could be an avatar selection to be used - or maybe that other profiles of other players can be viewed?

That could be a good idea...

Considering how long a single game can take, time might not be the best thing to reward.

there will be a lot of achievements, time, number of wins/games/regions conquered and whatnot

Perhaps a small number of warcoins (like 5-10) could be given out with each achievment, letting players, with enough dedication, try out a few of the premium races/maps/whatever. It'd give a lot more motivation than just the bragging rights.

Indeed!!

easier achievements will give you xp, harder to get will give you few coins

Now just add a reason for people to get xp / go up in level, and the grinding will be worth it enough for players to stick around
