- Summary
- The dragon is a fearsome flying unit and is capable of terrorizing both ground and air units. Unlike the balloon, the dragon has a ranged attack, similar to archers.
- Also unlike the balloon the dragon does not target a specific building to attack; it targets whatever is nearest.
- Strategy
- Any dragon strategy involves taking out as many air defenses as possible with other units (infantry, giants, etc) or lightning spells, as it is the main threat to this powerful unit.
- A good strategy involves a mix of dragons and balloons. Dragons can suck up fire from air defenses and wizard towers while balloons go straight for the defenses.
- Dragons are mostly used to get trophies as their high cost doesn't make them great candidates for resource raiding.
- The first person to have reached over 4000 trophies (Jorge Yao) used an all-dragon army. He used 4 lightning spells as support, one to take out clan castle troops and the rest to destroy an Air Defense. This was his way to ensure 50% damage practically every time he attacked in order to become the top player and achieve this wonderful feat.
- Trivia
- The dragon is one of the two troops of which the picture in the barracks resembles a level 3 troop, the other being the Wall Breaker
- The dragon encounters major graphic changes at all levels.
- A dragon's shadow is oval, not dragon-shaped.
