while I have been having fun, I can't help but think this could have been made differently. I could see this game being set up like a DOTA/head to head Tower defense game.
Yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck, awful. No.
Trying to make a DOTA clone would probably be an exceptionally bad idea. DOTA is best at being DOTA, and the DOTA players are playing... DOTA.
This game's gimmick is managing your troops and Dragon at the same time. If you only have to manage your Dragon, the game would be much less interesting, and it would stand out much less because "oh, it's that DOTA clone where instead of 100 heroes to pick from, you can only be a Dragon. Meh."
This game is probably not for you.
