I mean you can try other war combos, but they have a much higher rate of failure, so everyone uses dragons.

    If dragons weren't such a high % 3 star attack, with minimum skill, then it would make war so much more interesting. Imagine having to use different troops, to get 3 stars, instead of just plopping a bunch of dragons in a spot and using a few spells?? It's comical at TH7-8, almost every attack is dragons. At least now at Max TH8 defense, I have only been 1 starred with dragons in the last several wars, due to L6 AD and telas. BUT, until that point, it was 3 star city, both ways, every time.

    Dragons could use a buff at TH10 and even TH9. They're pretty worthless against any half-developed TH9.

    Like the others said, that's not a decent TH9. Or was their base just that bad?

    Ummm yeah I am right. Show me a better war option at TH7 or TH8 than mass dragons?? Dragons at TH9 and TH10 are useless, but at TH7 and 8 they are overpowered in war. You my friend are the one who needs to learn more about CoC if you don't think that dragons at lower THs are OP in wars. Maybe you didn't war as a TH7 or 8 or rushed to a higher TH level(don't know what TH you are at now), but ummmm.....

    Every war, all the TH7s and 8s, use mass dragons on both sides EVERY TIME. Well there are a few that don't and get low to no stars, but they are just being cheap.

    My point is not that dragons aren't overpowered in the day to day game for lower level THs, they cost a lot and have high training time. BUT in war that doesn't matter and it's sucks that it's really THE option if you want an easy 3 star and be safe. Too easy. Would be nice to have to find a good troop combo or strategy at those THs, but no sense doing anything but dragons.

    Hmm. Let's see. At th7, i don't deny that mass drag is the only viable strategy to be used in wars. Unless you can confidently 3star with Giant Healer, of course. However, i won't complain, because you don't stick around at th7 for a long time anyway, its quickly maxed.

    For th8 though, you're just wrong. There are several other strategies SO much better than mass drag at th8. Gowipe, Govape, Gova, Mass Hogs, Loonion, Wipe, the list goes on. And those are just the conventional attacks, i trust you can come up with strategies unique to yourself, or that have never been effectively used before.

    So yeah, you're just overreacting to such a petty issue. Only reason mass drag is popular at th8 is because its so noob friendly. I've seen very few people who can regularly 3* max th8s with mass drags. I don't mean to get into any argument or whatever, im just displaying the facts.

    Btw, you do know that you can just design an anti air base and watch your opponents flop their drag attacks on your base? Seriously, brains, dude.

    There are other strategies at TH8, but they come very late into TH8 and using Dragons is almost always a 3 star or at worst a 2 star. So the people who do take time leveling their golems and pekkas etc, like I did, really have no advantage. Hogs have a high chance of failing at TH7/8. Seen so many attacks go wrong for people with a good dgb placement or layout.

    My point is that using dragons is just too easy of a strategy at TH7/8 and it sucks that you really have no incentive to risk any other attack. There is nothing easier and more effective and that shouldn't be the case. Balloons are good and I have used them to 3star many bases, but still not as high % 3 star chance as Level 3 dragons. Now at TH9 with L6 balloons and hounds, it's a whole new world and your real options for 3 star armies really explodes.

    Like I said before, I don't get 3 starred by dragons anymore, but I'm about two weeks away from TH9, with max defenses. I do have brains dude, I just know the state of TH7/8 raiding.

    Maybe we can agree on this. Dragons are way overpowered in war only, at TH7-mid TH8. Max TH8 on, they are a non issue. It's just in that range, they are a brain dead easy 3 star option, with no reason to use anything else. It doesn't force people to use any other troop combo and they don't develop skills like gowipe etc, until late TH8 or most likely TH9.

    Dragons are OP at TH 7 (at least)

    Even level 1 dragons are a no brainer on a TH 7 base. If you take out one AD with lightning, I think there is pretty close to a 0% chance of failure by just spamming dragons anywhere on the base. That is definitely OP.

    I agree it gets a bit harder against a TH 8 base, but not much harder for most TH 8 bases. I think a TH 7 with level 2 dragons can 3-star ~75% of TH 8 bases with just a bit of strategy (start the drags in the right spot and use rage/lightning appropriately). I certainly was able to as a TH 7 and now as a TH 8 with level 2 drags. That is also OP.

    True, they are definitely disadvantaged against TH 9 and 10, but with smart use of balloons and/or lava hounds, they can also be very effective.

    I think it would be a better game if dragons were nerfed at the lower levels to make them less OP at TH 7, and maybe also reduce the cost at lower levels proportionately.

    I'm a fairly new TH 8, and all I see and use in clan wars on TH 7/8 are drags, which can get pretty boring.
