Idea for Ashen Dragons
I think Ashen dragons are almost never picked nowadays. Sure their ability is powerful but its a bit impractical to use, and their lesser stats + lack of aura makes them inferior to the Black Dragon in most cases
I have a proposal that would make them very distinct from their black counterparts
- Remove Magic immunity and replace with Heroic strike immunity.
This would make them a legitimate choice depending if your opponent is a Heroic strike hero, and would increase their viability especially vs might heroes.
- Change Magic Immunity to Absolute resistance (magic damage immunity)
Similar to the Abyssal Envoy where it allows buffs (and debuffs) so that if you have a lot of army enhancing spells you can use it on your dragons. Magic immunity often can be more of a hinderance than a buff.
You might need to update the ability to be less powerful if this is the case but I feel like these changes would make them much more of a viable choice than a fairly impractical ability that requires setup.
