Dragons are overpowered

Hey, I have a problem with how easy it is to use 10-12 dragons and easily 3 star a base using no strategy other than lightning spelling an air defense and putting down all dragons... The last 3 clan wars I have been in our clan lost because the other clan used all dragon attacks and almost reached max stars :l There are multiple ways to fix this but i think the easiest and most fair would be to raise the troop space to 25 or 30, but if anyone else has any objections, agreements, or thoughts on this subject please leave them and ill be glad to work with u :)

Oh god!
Not again!

The way the game is structured, the lower the TH level, the greater advantage the offense has against the same TH level. The higher the TH level, the greater advantage the defense has against the same TH level. You will eventually have a strong base against dragons when you reach TH9/TH10. But until then, if you want to defend better against dragons, focus on upgrading your defenses that target air units (air defenses, archer towers, teslas, traps, etc.).

To put it bluntly: dragons are not overpowered, your defense is too weak. Upgrade your base.

Please use the search feature to help you find one of the countless other threads that have already talked about this before. I'm sure one of the many dozens upon dozens of threads that have already discussed this will answer your questions.

Sorry, nothing personal, and not because I'm an 'avid dragon user', but reported thread as spam. Don't worry, this will not cause a ban. Mods directly read the reports and make a judgement call on them. (heck, they could even ignore my report, so.. heh, yeah... there you go.)

The more obvious solution to your problem is obviously to have your clan start using dragons as well. Anything someone can do to you, you can do back to them. Dragon are really only broken at th7. Come th9 and 10, dragons are actually under powered

As others have pointed out, this has already been discussed.

Check the link in my signature. That's one of the active discussions, which is aimed at trying to fix the issue.

To those claiming that attack is OP at lower levels and gets harder at higher levels, I disagree.

Balloons get s 50% increase in DPS and 30-40% increase in hit points, with each upgrade starting from level 3. Balloons go from a decent troop that requires skill (or at least a good plan), to one that is borderline OP at TH9 (when you get level 6 loons).

Dragons do the exact opposite. They start at an insanely OP level of power, and their power increases marginally at best with each upgrade.

Balloons get stronger with each upgrade, even taking into account the increased defense of each TH as the balloons level up. The only time a TH can "stay ahead" of the balloon upgrade, is TH10, because there's no level 7 upgrade (yet).

Dragons get considerably weaker with every upgrade, when you take into account the increased defense of each TH level. The only exception level 2 at TH7, because you get level 1 and level 2 at TH7. Even then, I consider level 2 dragons weaker. Why? Because if you have several TH7's in your clan, the TH7's with level 1 dragons should be getting 3 stars on TH7's, and the TH7's with level 2 dragons should be getting 2-3 stars on early-mid TH8's. The TH7's with level 2 dragons will ironically have a harder time getting 3 stars.

I think dragons just need all their stats reworked. All of them. They are only good if you full your camps with them (or at least that's about the only thing people do with them anyway). They are only good against th7 and somewhat effective against low/mid th8. They are garbage against th9/th10.

I'd like them to be more of a air pekka. They kinda already are, but you never see people using mass pekka attacks. You don't really see any mass -insert troop here- other than dragons.

They need a total rework to make them viable if you use a few of them in an attack rather than only filling your camps up. That IMO is the big issue with dragons, not that they are op against one town hall level.

Dragons are only overpowered at TH7.
