Okay... I just randomly search "Amatsumagatsuchi vs Kushala Daora" in google, and one of the result said "Amatsu easily has the strongest storms out of any Elder Dragon (Shantien likely beats Amatsu though)", I just like "Shantien? Never heard of it, let me see the youtube", and so I found this video. I just wanna say... this is the most epic battle in Monster Hunter series, for me at least. I mean, four freaking phase?! Epic battle music especially the 4th phase?! Just... WOW man...
I like that this is back when Frontier was just getting used to its own power, and didn’t need to crank the weapon damage and movesets to 11 to adjust for power creep. People give Frontier so much shit, even though power creep is the main reason why most of the things they bully it for are the way they are. Stronger monsters need stronger weapons and better players, better players need stronger monsters and stronger weapons, and this repeats. Usually I can’t tell what’s happening with Tonfas in the later installations, but here it’s very clear, and they look like a plausible weapon that could be added to mainline games. Also that one move that charges up the one tonfa for a huge sledge to the face is a beautiful thing that I need in my life.
Commenting again after 4 years, but with Espinas (and soon, his subspecies) in MH Rise Sunbreak, a light of hope has been kindled for Shantien to show up in one of the future Title Updates.
or even just in future games in general. The flood gates have been opened and the possibilities are infinite. I'm really looking forward to the frontier craziness that will show its face in the future
just spitballing thoughts here but there is that theory that amatsu might come back bc of some lore drops in risr & sunbreak, but im thinking it might be shantien instead w them trying to bring back frontier monsters and all
@@lubbo5261 look at that, I wasnt aware of that. For whatever reason Lavasioth, and now by extension Plesioth keep getting brought in. The other monster is Hypnocatrice released in 2009 along with Lavasioth on Freedom U, and hasnt been seen in 11 years.

So shantien is a flying lagiacrus ? It literly has its underwater dive move for air and its ground attacks are simulair or i guesse the opposit is true either way very simular.

For the longest time they refused to put frontier monsters into main games because they were supposed to be exclusive for the players who paid the subscription. Pretty dumb but it looks like theyre finally starting to add them.
went from angry winged lagiacrus to even angrier amatsu

this woukd be an amazing fight with Monster Hunter Rise mechanics!

so many awesome monsters from the frontier series but we will never see them again

12:29 that looks like the new Cahoot skin we are getting.
Didn’t really know what this monster was till now BUT I WANT IT

Huh? You had a long sword in the opening, and then tonfas when the hunt actually started. Por que?
In frontier you can use any armor as layer armor, its only show in lobby session.
Zero 360HD wish granted
just imagine in world graphics. Holy shit this would be awsome!

what's some.... questionable armor design.
it makes xenoblade 2 look tame in comparison.

@@goregia764 fair enough
How come it looks like a huge cross breed between valstrax,amatsu,lagiacrus and agnaktor!
It looks like a big blue agnaktor pretty much
The only resemblance I see is that they're using the Leviathan skeleton. Honestly, they look as similar as Glavenus and Uragaan.
Those damn tonfas bro.
god i wish this monster was in rise sun break, would've been amazing to take on
i want this for sunbreak
Too bad that hunters today will never get to fight Shantien
I just found out about Frontier a couple months back. I played MH when it was still running, what a shame :(
OH WELL ABOUT THAT-

Nope, the leaks indicate that could have been between the amatsu (this monster is confirmed to appear in sunbreak) or the disufiroa
7:46
I've heard that Shantien and Dhisufiroa are stronger than regular black dragons, including Fatalis
Disufiroa could snap Alatreon’s neck.
