Seems to me they are underpowered. At least barbarians are useful as the first warrior in normal barracks but minions seem so rubbish. Is there any point to upgrading them or just a waste of DE?

Are you kidding me? Minions are extremely powerful
They take up barely any space, they're extremely powerful in small groups, and their power is greater than a barb or archer.
Balloonion, for one, uses minions for 2 reasons: Clean up and extra firepower. If balloons do well, minions completely shred through buildings. That's why balloonion is such a popular trophy pushing, farming, and hybrid strategy.
I use them all the time. They're great for killing the barbarian king with no fuss. They're great for picking off extra percentages. I've had a single minion bring in 100k that would have been left behind otherwise. They're really good paired up with balloons and lavahounds.
A better question is who doesn't use minions.
One guy doesn't
I use it in cc war...it good for def...minion + ballon very good for defeat gowipe...
Yep, minnons are the sprinkes on the pwncakes...
Definitely a great troop! Very worth while. I think they are really versatile. Great for low level Clan Castle Defense. Amazing Minion/Balloon combo as mentioned above. But, still just great added DPS (damage per second) with a giant/healer/minion combo. They are cheap and quick to make and they only take 2 spots. I would recommend upgrading and trying some different combos and see what works for you.

Of course thousands of clashers use them! In fact, they're one of the best troops that costs literally nothing!
