Pretty much this. My clan is still 3 starting with mass dragons and lvl 6 loons in CC.

Is this sentence still valid today?
In early days, mass dragons were sure 3 stars for TH8 and below, even with level 6 AD. However, attackers soon realised that some were able to design their base very well and to get 3 stars, it is no longer easy 3 stars. More skill and careful planning is needed.
I see the same trend for air sweeper. Looks like mass dragon no longer can get 3 stars, not even 2 stars most of the time. Air sweeper is limiting you to attack from only one side, and that leads the dragons to mass suicide.
