In GW1 players were able to acquire emotes tied to the Hero and Zaishen titles to display /rank to other players. Will we see any emote-like thing of this sort in GW2?

Jonathan Sharp: This weekend we’ll be showing something new in this regard! As you rank up in PvP, you will be able to unlock different levels of Finishing Moves, based on your PvP rank. Every 10 ranks you will unlock a new type of Finishing Move and a new rank name. Once you have achieved a new rank, you’ll be able to use consumables that change your finishers! This weekend we’ll be showing:
- Ranks 1-9: Rabbit
- Ranks 10-19: Deer
- Ranks 20-29: Dolyak
- Cow – This is something for fun! You can buy these in the Gem Store and finish people with a cow. No, I’m not joking.
The rank-based finishing moves can be acquired through reward chests (by playing in tournaments or by ranking up), so have fun with them!

In before gem store QQing!

I know it will happen, even though this is simply a cosmetic item.

Other than that, it's nice to see something else return from GW. Since it's general PvP this time and not HA based, I may actually get one of these, lol.

The downside is I'd never want to change my finisher from a rabbit. A rabbit smashing you in the face and killing you? Come on, that's way better than a cow.

Gonna get all Bambi up in this place, yeeeeah.

Hope there's some cooler ranks, srsly. Cow is funny but, I want a Centaur.

Then I can joke about how people didn't outrun me.

Oh boo, the rabbit isn't actually a rabbit finisher.

Wow that guy looks like he spent a lot on cows...

Wait so if I get this right, there is a cow that jumps up out of the ground and lands on the guy you are finishing off?
