Is it a mistake to pick my dragons by their Power 🔥 number?

Yes — a classic beginner's trap. Power 🔥 is an "on paper" estimate, mostly driven by the dragon's level — it does not measure the quality of its abilities and effects.

The perfect example in our data: Jagadrix has the lowest Power on its roster (19,750) yet is considered the best dragon, because its effects are so strong (it breaks enemy Instinct and Initiative, which amplifies the rest of the army).

The same mistake applies to troop capacity: never pick a dragon just because it carries a lot of troops.

The right approach: choose your dragons for their abilities, auras and synergies, and use 🔥 only as a secondary marker.
