Wings or flying based game mechanics are too obscure to be of any real concern on average.
Why would I play a dragon when I can say, play two frogs or spiders at a fraction of the cost with the same or better damage/defense?
I dont think I have ever lost a match to someone so bold enough to drop a dragon in play.
Concerning airborne: There's no telling what the future might release; airborne could become one of the most useful skills with the right card creation.
It's true you can play frogs or spiders for the fraction of the cost, but then again every deck utilizes a different strategy and those strategies are what give cards their use. For instance, if it's late game and you want to play fractal to unleash as much damage as possible, fractaling a frog versus a jade dragon would amount to less than half of the maximum power possible. Shields also play a part here. If you have two frogs on the field, your chance of a creature freezing due to Ice/Permafrost Shield doubles. However, attacking with a Jade Dragon would offer less chances of meeting this end. It depends on what deck you want to play; in well rounded decks that want a chance at beating (almost) everything, a dragon or two might not be such a bad idea.
That's rather impressive you've never lost to someone who drops a dragon in play. However, there is a deck for every situation; just because you've never lost to a dragon doesn't mean it's out of the question.
