Standard reward for IS: Rifleman. A mediocre chassis with mediocre hardpoints on top of it.
Standard reward for Clans: Night **** Gyr with ECM. An omnimech with cbill boost that you can build however you like.
A Rifleman with JJs it a bigger, better Blackjack. Which is a good thing.
A Night Gyr with ECM is still not going to perform well for most people.

Top tier for IS: Warhammer with bad hardpoints
Top tier for Clans: MAD IIC. An assault mech. Not the best hardpoints compared to other clan assaults but you can stuff it with lasers and it will be a decent cbills grinder. It will also have JJs unlike other MAD IIC laser boats.
A Warhammer with ECM is bad how, exactly? Sure, it doesn't have the best hardpoints, but it's still a Warhammer so it's still pretty solid as far as Heavy 'mechs go.
A Marauder IIC with JJs - just like the other 2 with JJs? Unless you want to PPC poptart, I'm not sure why you want more E rather than B hardpoints on a JJ version.

Also why doesn't ultimate pack qualify for top tier reward even though it costs nearly as much as two collector packs, especially if you've been buying some MCs?
That's because it only costs nearly as much as 2 CEs and not as mch as 2 CEs. Also general opinion is CEs are "not worth it" so they are weighted higher in the
Loyalty Annual Rewards program.

Rifleman is glass anything but cannon, except for the laser boat variant. It's slow, it's paper thin and it doesn't have enough tonnage to be effective two ballistic mech.
My quad AC2, dual AC5, dual AC10, dual LB10X & dual LGauss RFLs would like a word. From at least 450m away, obviously
