Assuming you can get the size to grapple it, and a high enough athletics to succeed, is it actually good? Against casters? Of course. But dragons?
It looks like a dragon would only get one try to break out, since multi attack is a single attack action. Different from fighters who get iterative attacks in a turn. But that doesn't stop the dragon from roasting the party with dragonbreath, or unloading multiple attacks via multi attack and just mauling the grappler to death. So is grappling really going to do anything? Especially if it locks down the main melee damage dealer?
