The region of Praetoria is habitat to many frightening monsters, Dragons are also one of them, but they are different from other elemental creatures. Their power is based on their size, the bigger the dragons more vicious they become.
Some dragons are native and some of them came from rifts opened by Chaos Lord and other powerful entities. Many other races such as humanoids, goblins, Venaris, Djinns, and Nagas have also adopted to Dragon element and joined forces with real dragons.
There are no words like fear and timidness in dragons' dictionary, all they know is to dominate with might and courage. When they enter a battlefield, all we hear is screams out of the opponent's mouth.

RULESET
STRATEGY
I have used my favorite strategy that I like most and applied it in many Splinterlands ranked battles. I use a Taunt Monster that will take all attacks from the enemy's side, then my support units will heal his health and repair his armor in each round to keep my tank alive in the battle.
Delwyn Dragonscale is the summoner with +1 Magic Attack buff, which will help my Magic units in the battle.
Agor Longtail is my favorite dragon unit and it is performing as a tank in this battle. Agor uses Flying, Taunt, and Void Armor abilities, which make him one of the best tanks in any high mana battle. With 'Taunt' all monsters except Scattershot ones will attack Ago Longtail, 'Flying ability gives him a 25% chance of evading any incoming melee and ranged attack, while 'Void Armor' diverts all magic attacks to physical armor instead of directly affecting his health. Agor has 2 different damage types 1) melee and 2) magic, this makes him attack twice in a row.
Creeping Ooze removes 1 point of Speed from all enemy monsters making them miss most of their melee and ranged attacks.
Divine Healer is also a support unit with 'Tank Heal' ability and heal a small amount of monster in the first position.
Armorsmith is used to repair the Armor of a tank unit in the first position, he will help Agor recover some of his armor to protect him from all types of attacks.
Soul Fiend has technically no use but I have added it to increase R-Shares in the battle to gain additional focus points.

BATTLE COMMENTARY
This fierce battle elongates to 10 rounds due to the healing received by both tank units, but dragon units are not here for the party except because they like to feast on their opponent's corpses.
Round 1 to 4
Delwyn Dragonscale buffs Agor Longtail with a chaotic magical rune that enhances his magic attack with 1 extra point. On the other hand, Kelya Frendul adds +1 Armor and +1 Speed to his units. But Creeping Ooze destroys Frendul's Speed buff by removing 1 Speed point immediately.
The first attack comes from Djinn Oshannus, then more attacks are made to weaken Agor Longtail, but he has a strong support that heals him and repairs his armor.
Agor slowly and steadily debilitates Oshannus, but he has a healer in the backline that keeps him alive but for how long.
Round 5
A big wild guffaw is heard "haha! Do you like to die by my fire or my human-sized claws, choice is yours, Oshannus.".
Then Agor wildly chops Djinn Oshannus from head to toe with his pointy and long claws.
Round 6
Merdaali Guardian healer of Oshannus is now facing Agor the great, an innocent creature, but Agor knows no mercy he opens his mouth and pours fire on Merdaali leaving him nothing but an incinerated dust of ashes.
Then he slaps Ice Pixie and removes her armor leaving her helpless and surprised.
Round 7
Agor Longtail draws an evil grin "Pixie girl, you are best suited for kids' stories and not battles."
Agor again opens his fiery mouth and spews fire on Pixie, there is no trace of her DNA anywhere. A second attack on Wavesmith by Agor makes him without armor.
Round 8
Agor lunges toward Venari Wavesmith and stomps him with his huge paw, Wavesmith is flattened like a bedsheet on the ground.
9 to 10
"Now, come on Kulu boy, you should have left the battlefield already, but today I'll make you my dinner by putting you in my belly." Agor warns Kulu Swimhunter, then he lifts Kulu with his claw and gulps into his gut.
SPLINTERLANDS QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Tell us about your lineup.
My battle lineup consisted of Agor Longtail, Creeping Ooze, Divine Healer, Armorsmith, and Soul Fiend.
Explain why you put each card in that position and why they are a good fit with DRAGONS.
Agor at first position diverted all enemy attacks to him using Taunt ability, he also evaded some ranged attacks and his armor also took magic attacks due to his Void Armor ability. I have enhanced his magic attack with Delwyn Dragonscale.
Creeping Ooze in 2nd position reduced the speed of enemy monsters, while Divine Healer in 3rd position used to heal the tank, and Armorsmith repaired the armor of Agor making him more strong again and again.
Did your strategy work?
Taunt strategy work often like this one, because if you use proper healing and armor repair units, it is easy to win the battle.
What will you try differently next time?
There is very little choice to make changes when you are using a Taunt monster, so I guess I'll stick to that position again.
Do you like DRAGONS? Why or why not?
Dragon summoners can select any faction, that's the beauty of this element. I like it because it provides the flexibility of choosing other elemental units in a battle and also gives powerful dragon units.
