User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Discussion of the Week: Elder Dragon-Level Monsters/@comment-5963861-20160328180017

Alrighty might as well join in on the discussion.

1. My favorite one as of now is currently Incinerating Blade Glavenus. Yeah I know I'm a Brute Wyvern lover, big deal.

2. Least favorite is a three-way tie between Shen Gaoren, Rajang and Unknown Flying Wyvern. Shen is way too slow/boring a fight, Rajang as stated before reminds me of a certain show that I have just never liked, While Unknown is just too ugly in my opinion.

3. I love the idea of them. It shows that although very powerful, Elder Dragons can be challenged if not outright beaten by non-elder monsters is good for the lore of the series.

4. I'd definitely add Brachydios/Raging Brachydios to the group. The explosive slime is wicked powerful and would be hell on the more heavily armored monsters like Gravios or Uragaan.

5. Nah, they're all alright.

6. I would avoid the Apex Monsters like the plague. ;)

7. I would absolutely love to see ecology videos with some of these guys. The benchmark video with Laviente was amazing !!

8. Definitely Laviente. That beast has everything you could want in an Elder Dragon.

9. Hmmm...lets see. Espinas vs. Kushala Daora, Incinerating Blade Glavenus vs. Teostra, Berukyurosu vs. Kirin, Akantor vs. Crimson Fatalis and Deviljho vs. Toa Tesukatora.
