Like many people here, I really like Clifford. Its design is a mix of badass and unsettling, resembling a skinned dog with an extra set of claws protruding on its primary set, and although I don't have World yet (still waiting for that PC release, since I don't own a PS4 or Xbox One), its battle style is fast-paced, aggressive, and versatile, which is always a nice addition. The armour looks pretty badass (and, in the case of the female armour, quite sexy, though not as sexualized as some other fanservicey armours like it, such as Nargacuga's and Kirin's), and the skills it offers make it a worthwhile set, even if it will get outclassed later on. The weapons have good sharpness and affinity, which is nice when you want to take advantage of that good ol' DPS, and they come with a hidden Fire element, which makes sense when you consider how bright its veins get when it's enraged, though the raw power is a bit lacking. Its Turf Wars are also quite brutal, which is fitting for this bundle of unbridled rage, reducing anything weaker than it to a mere chew toy (and seeing Deviljho use it a chew toy can be a pretty funny sight as well, due to the sheer irony of Odo's own tactic being used against it). All in all, this monster has my approval, and it's one of the best new monsters World has to offer.
