Level 26 25 Venue that's basically a challenge mode - Bosses only, featuring all bosses from all venues and maybe 4 bosses exclusive to this venue that are level 25.
As it stands I feel a lot of players see bosses as an annoying break from the flow of mindless grinding. Eliminate + rally are the kings of the coliseum we're growing tired of. I feel a venue that's pure boss mayhem would encourage a few things:
I'd also like to see this hypothetical venue being a little to a lot more generous with rare and very rare item drops as well as EXP the longer you're in it. The more bosses you beat in a row, the more likely it is you'll be getting some dang good item drops, not astronomically high odds mind you but... reasonable for the challenge. To compensate for the fact it'd be a very slow venue to be in.
I don't know the odds for items from the rarer tables, but 1/500 odds that go as low as 1/100 at a "maximum chain" for getting a gene, an egg, venue exclusive apparel, ect, sounds decent to me?
I'd also love to see a counter or leaderboard, mostly for bragging rights and to incentivize competitive players: who can last the longest against consecutive mantarune after borer after terror toad after whatever the level 26 bosses could be.
And with it being a boss rush... Imagine the potential for fun venue-exclusive event enemies. Like say, during the elemental festivals, the festival familiar spawns there as a limited time boss, and you get a little currency, a chance at the festival chest, and a chance at the familiar itself.
To anyone reading this i'd love to hear your thoughts on this idea!
Editing to say I agree with lowering the familiar drop rate to keep the economy from tanking so I edited my post accordingly!
Edit 2: There's a lot of support for randomized boss order + all of them being level 25! I'm in support of it too, I think it's the best option.

- Different team builds. Anticipate would be highly valuable when you know you're up against only bosses. Mages would also be extremely useful.
- Unique stat loadouts. Dragons focused less on being glass canons for grinding and more on survival. Mixed attackers who focus on outlasting the bosses, healing, and dealing damage over time. Discipline and even the Field Manual could be as useful as an Ambush stone.
- Just in general, I think it'd be a fun change of pace.

[snipped] It would be especially cool if a boss venue had recolored or otherwise evolved or mutated versions of existing bosses!
