They die so fast and move so slowly. Why use balloons when there are dragons and minions that do their job 20x better?

They really are not a viable attack strategy until you have them at level 5, and they become a lot better at level 6. If you have them anything below that, I would suggest holding off on balloonion strategies until then.
love loons. 24 loons/50 minions get most loot most times. and build faster and cheaper then dragons
You're either not using them right (they only work well in masses, as in 5+ in a pack/group on a base), or you don't have max loons. They can be effective and devastating on the right base, and they aren't as prone to non-disco infernos than dragons.
Balloons go for defenses but need support from minions and sometimes dragons, true. They are effectively airborne giants so almost useless by themselves but unstoppable when accompanied by the right troops
Dragons are very unreliable. Dragons target any building, not just defenses, so sometimes the dragons could just go for buildings around the side, and the Air Defences could just kill them easily. Also, Dragons are very expensive troops and take along time to train.
I use balloons often, Level 5 balloons that is, and they seem to work pretty well.
Either you are using them wrong or yours are low leveled
I hope they are good, I'm upgrading mine to level 6. About 8 days away.:D
