Dragons

All Dragons in Clash of Clans come from a mystery land of the fire and the fury. With their horrible power, they destroy all small villages without mercy… They scare nothing. They are Dragons.

Clash of Clans Dragons Summary

• You can unlock the Dragons once you have Barrack level 9.
• The Dragons can attack both ground and air units. They do range splash damage.
• Dragons have no preferred target, they attack everything which is the closest to them.
• Like most other troops, Dragons can be lured by the enemy Clan troops.
• At Town Hall 7 and 8, Dragon attack strategies are quite over-powered.

Dragons & Strategies

Offensive strategies:

• Although Dragon is quite strong at TH7 and 8 but you should remove as many Air Defensesas possible by using Lightning Spells (most popular), Balloons or Hog Riders. You can read more about this at: Lightning Spells Vs. Air Defenses.
• Dragon + Balloon is a perfect couple, while Dragons are destroying everything they can see, the Balloons find and destroy the Air Defenses.
• Dragons are also used a lot for boosting trophies.
• A Town Hall 8 player can always 3 stars a Town Hall 7 village with Dragons and ease.
• For more details, you can read more at: Advanced Dragon Attack Strategy and Mass Dragons and Spells Guide

Defensive strategies:

• If you like Clan Wars and you are at Town Hall 7 or 8, upgrade your Air Defenses as soon as possible.
• A spread out base layout works very well against Dragons, you can see some perfect ones at the Clash of Clans Base Designs section.
