Are Lvl 5 Units viable anymore?

With Red Dragons I can send them to the front lines without fear - which feels more 'Dragon-ish' - since I can buff/heal/use sacrifice to restore them.

Well, I've done no loss impossible with them, and recall it being one of the fastest (real time wise) ways of doing it. This was in KBAP where my army was RGBB dragons, and Archdemons. Except for the final two fights (Ktahu and Bhaal) where I used just Bone dragons + eviln.
