Actually, +1/+1 and -1/-1 counters cancel out as a state-based action.

I honestly would have just preferred something like this:
Phyrexian Hydra XGG
Creature - Hydra 0/0

CARDNAME comes into play with X +1/+1 counters on it.

Infect

What would this do? This would have made for an insane beater for Phyrexian. It takes around 5 mana to become even remotely cost effective, but once it did, boom. In addition, it plays around with Phyrexia's favorite mechanic, Proliferate. Even if you kept the damage=permanent loss mechanic, it'd still be an effective but balanced Phyrexian beatstick.

I think maybe something like:
"{2}{G}{G}: Remove a -1/-1 counter from Phyrexian Hydra"
might make this card more appealing to people. Maybe its too much to ask for. Idk, I don't balance cards for a living. It's like a pricey regenerate which green has quite a rep for, and it would add some more cool flavor because.. don't hydras regenerate their heads when you cut them off? I like the card as it is. Throw a perk like that in there and I'd love it.
