1) Shantien and Disufiroa are tied!
 * Shantien because, it is an unexpected take on the usual storm dragons. True, it can cause storms like Amatsumagatsuchi but it isn't constantly followed by storms. In the 1st Phase, the sky is sunny and than in the 2nd Phase, the storm begins. I also like this monster's design! It reminds me of a classic Chinese/Japanese Dragon with a more modernized-unique look! Shantien even fits with the idea of these Asian Dragons from it manipulating water, rainfall, storms, typhoons, etc. But one thing mainly sets it apart from those dragons, its Final Phase! I don't even have words about that phase, especially from that elegant yet godly theme! I take my hat off to Shantien...
 * Disufiroa is basically what Alatreon is capable of but, just doesn't do in-game. Not only does Disufiroa basically bring a true challenge for Frontier players, it also shows that there is a lot we don't know about. In the New World, Alatreon is called the Strongest Monster while in Mezeporta, Disufiroa is called Strongest Monster! Hell, its concept in development was just Strength/Power (Japanese 強さ) and look they made it powerful because it was always its concept. Some people may look at Disufiroa as an OP monster but, that just shows the developers achieved what they wanted to with this monster. They wanted it to be the strongest, so they made it strong and difficult to kill, showing their goal has been achieved. No matter what some say about this monster, Disufiroa is what an Elder Dragon is in two word: Unexplainable and Supernatural.

2) I have to say G-rank Crimson Fatalis... It may look cool but, it just doesn't really bring up much compared to Fatalis. Maybe a Solstice Crimson Fatalis could actually get its meteors back or gain some of its mutate cousins abilities...

3) I've been wondering that question for the longest. However, there is a yet to be used BGM that me and others have heard a few times in their development videos, which sounds like something for a Fatalis or powerful Elder Dragon: https://youtu.be/i4FKN1_LWvI?t=420

4) There is always a bigger, stronger monster out there!

5) Lao-Shan Lung, Rukodiora, Teostra, Akantor, Doragyurosu, Guanzorumu, and Rajang.

6) Hell yeah! As much as I like seeing classic monsters become Conquest War Monsters, I would like to see them bring in at least one or two completely new monsters for that group to make it more unique while giving players more reasons to get to G-rank.

7) Yes! The other classes have so much potential in them! I especially think CW Plesioth has a lot of potential to put Disufiroa in its place lmao!

8) Since the Main Series has revamped the Elder Dragons for the most part, I say something similar could easily be the next step for them! A Deviant for an Elder Dragon or something similar exclusive to EDs and EDLMs? Either way, I hope they find someway outside of G-rank and Guild Quests to make Elder Dragons stronger!
