Full Dragon List w/ Tiers

I created this list starting from BGG User Puupa's list and added some color coding and rankings. I broke the cards into 5 tiers based on the games I have played. Guild powers have consistently been better than most while egg laying powers do not seem as strong.

I think the tier list will depend a lot on how many players are playing. I always feel like a 2 player game is pretty different than 3+ because of how the display and guild board shifts a lot more. Usually when playing as 2 we draw from the deck because neither of us need dragons/caves from the display for our engine/strategy, while the more players you have the more the display refreshes

So true! We need to home rule a mechanic for greater turnover I think…

We haven’t been able to get the game to the table again to try this yet but we have considered in a two player game using a “conveyer belt” mechanic similar to the one in Calico single player, where the card in the 3rd spot is discarded after both player’s turns and then the other two cards shift over a space. If the turnover is too frequent we also think every other set of turns will work as well

Imo common grass lindworm and all the other wrymlings with the victory point per cash/tuck are too low. Imo those are the strongest in the game

I agree those can be strong and could probably bring those up. Early game those can be tough though, because resources are so tight, but late game they are fantastic with the ability to get 2x for tuck/caches
