What Does Inferno Dragon Do?
Inferno Dragon is a flying troop that can hit both ground and air targets, with a damage-over-time attack that ramps up the longer it stays locked onto the same target without interruption. Early hits are weak, but the damage escalates dramatically the longer the fight continues.
That ramp resets entirely if he switches targets or gets knocked back, meaning his real threat depends on the opponent being unable to break his focus.
Where Inferno Dragon Fits
He's a strong answer to tanky win conditions, since his damage output is high enough over time to threaten even very high-HP troops if left unchecked.
How to Counter Inferno Dragon
Knockback effects or introducing a different target for him to attack reset his damage buildup, preventing him from ever reaching his most dangerous damage tier.
